WINNETKA TALK February 25, 1928 A State Bank A Savings Account at This Bank--N ow! HE only way to attain the certainty of permanent financial security is to save a part of all you earn. With a little "nest egg' steadily increasing, you are sure some day to be comfortably "well off." You owe it to yourself and to your family to open a Savings Account--not some time in the future, but now! No income is so small that a definite part of it may not be banked. And it is sur- prising how small savings grow into respectable sums that may be the key to financial independence. The sound reputation of this institu- tion for integrity, friendliness and cour- tesy suggest that your account be placed here.
