Members of BANK N0TE$ BY DONALD DALEY PRESIDENT FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McHENRY WHOSE PORTRAIT? Whose portrait has ap- ritories including Canada, peared on a greater num­ ber of different coins than anyone else's in history? Now that covers a lot of ground and many centuries, so take a few moments to guess. Well, the distinction goes to Queen Victoria, Em­ press of India as well as Queen of England, reigning from 1837 until her death in 1901. Her reign coin­ cided with England's great­ est era of growth in in­ ternational trade and col­ onial development. The great statesman, Benjamin Disraeli, was her Prime Minister 1867-68, and 1874 to 1880. Victoria's rule reached all Continents save one and her profile was on the coins of more than twenty countries and ter- Australia, Hong Kong, East Africa, British Honduras, Ceylon. The good Queen was but 18 years old when she took the throne, so her looks and features, of ne­ cessity, had to change markedly over the six de­ cades; first maturing from youth to young womanhood, to middle age to old age. The coin designers of the British Empire were con­ sistently complimented for their realistic and gracious handling of the inevitable transitions .... similarly, Queen Victoria was always credited with calm realism in recognition of the fact that her looks were not "devinely" immune to the passage of time. Whether you are interested in saving money....or bor­ rowing, you' if find FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McHENRY most accommodating! You will also receive fast, per­ sonal service....with a smilte!
