Magley COUNTY ROAD SUPT. » dfl Keep up the Payment of Your Christmas Club At this time of the year there seems to be a tendency towards laxity of keeping up payments on (Christmas Savings Clubs. Pei haps that is due to the extra money that is taken along for vacation trips. But it is essential that your payments be kept to date in order that you receive full interest at the end of the vear. The many good uses from v hich you will enjoy your Christmas money are probably planned already. The best way to assure complete enjoyment of this money is to have your payments made to date or in advance. Then when your check is sent to you, the interest added will be our reward for your diligence in savings. Payment number 38 is due this week. Look at your Club book. If you are behind, now is the time to catch up to date. Letting it go for a few more weeks only makes it harder to complete payments before number 50 rolls along. Old Adams County Bank
