The hero of the base ball diamond may like a
bouquet as well as anyone, but when bases are full
and he steps up to the plate to knock a home run
the bouquet is a handicap. He needs a club.
Any bank can take care of you when times are
flush and everything is moving along line. IPs
when times are hard that the pressure comes.
Then you will need the friendship of a good bank
like ours, a bank able to tide you over. And you
will have our aid, too, if you are a patron. We are
able to take care of all our customers.
