HAS STOOD
THE TEST
You praise the bridge that carries you
safely across the stream, or the ship that
lands you safely in port.
The same praise is due a good Bank
like ours, that has safely weathered the
financial flurries all these years and has
been able at all times to protect its depos-
itors and care for all needs of its custom-
ers. It is a good record of which we are
proud. Our Bank has stood every test
and invites your patronage.
