Lets see if the EXCHANGE
NATIONAL BANK measures up
fully to your ideas of what a bank
should be. The first thing you
want is SAFETY. Very well.
Here is a bank that has been do-
ing business for the past thirty-
two years and during this long
and honorable career not a sin-
gle depositor has lost a single
penny in it or through it.
Here is a bank with $750,000
of assets; a •bank whose officers
and directors are your neighbors
and friends, whose names are a
guarantee of conservative man-
agement in which you can trust.
Here is a bank which has striv-
en hard to merit the confidence
of the community it serves and
we point with pardonable pride
to more than 2^00 regular cus-
tomers. We are proud, indeed,
of this, splendid possession and
deem it the very best advertise-
the Excliange National could
have.
As a bank the Exchange Na-
tional will perform any legiti-
mate aervice; accept deposits;
make loans; pay checks; furnish
drafts; make collections; buy
notes; care fof your valuable pa-
pers; in an absolutely fire and
burglar proof vault.

heard by a fair crowd of voters from
Denton and Denton county, as well as
a number of interested women. The
fact that both speakers were in favor
of the amendment naturally failed to
provide any of the excitement usually
attendant upon a joint discussion, but
both speeches presented the issue in a
rational, straightforward manner, as
they saw the reasons prompting them
to advocate the measure.
Hon, Alvin C. Owsley favored the
amendment because, he said, the
American states are .in competition in
education and advancement. "Texas is
our state, and all the state colleges
arc our colleges, and if the people
of Texas are proud of what is their
own they shffiild protect the state and
its institutions, and if they are anx-
ious to know how to protect the in-
stitutions and keep them in line with
the other states, and make our boys
and girls the leaders of Texas, they
should have on* motive, and that to
give the Legislature the power to vote
bonds to keep up these institutions.”
Owsley Introduces Mezes.
Mr. Owsley presented Mr. Mezes,
who, in his opening remarks, mention-
ed his. hesitancy; jp making a speech
of such nature. "1 do not believe that
any institution of learning should take
an active part in politics, but when 1
asked a friend what he thought of my
doing so in this case, he assured me
that the people would know I was
not a politician within five minute
after I had commenced to speak.
"The time was.” the speaker con-
tinued, plunging at once into his ar-
gument, "when men of good character
and sound mind were able to cope
with the problems of the Common-
wealth, but now we must keep pace
with the trend of times Ihai requires
a higher standard of know ledge; Ottiet
states have this idea In mind, and if
we hope to keep up with th* .Ameri-
can progress we must pay the price.
