John Jams, a well known gardener, acknowledged to friends the other day that he had accumulatd a fortune of $24,000. James wittily remarked that “I suppose if this gets out I will be set up as an example—well, it is easier to set an example than a speckled hen. "But,” he continued, “all joking aside, I have done nothing remarkable. I have just worked along steadily and as my money came in I put a certain amount in the bank. “I had no trouble in starting the account. The start is the easiest thing. It’s the everlasting keeping it up that is hard work. It is not half as much fun to run the lawn mower the last ten minutes as it is when you first take hold of the machine. But the man who doesn’t push his mower won’t get his lawn clipped any more than the man who won’t keep up his Savings Account will make a little fortune. "$24,000 is my reward for keeping at it.” If you have started a Savings Account at the First National Bank, are you keeping at it? FIRST NATIONAL BANK A Safe Place for Savings Decatur, Indiana
