F. Young, who lived near Greenbrier, Arkansas, was left a legacy of $2,000. She determined that she would carry it about her person. One day while walking through her barnyaid, the Safety pin which kept it in her pocket failed to do its duty, and the handkerchief, containing the money fell to the ground. Before she discovered her loss three calves-worth about $lO each —chewed up all but $375 of her roll of bills. Mrs. Young Put the $375 in the bank. There are ten thousand different ways of losing money. There’s only one way of keeping it safely. For you that one way is to put it now in the First National Bank.
