CREDIT

is the Basis of Our Financial Structure

The amount of actual money that changes hand* in the United States is negligible in proportion to the vojime of business transacted, and compared with business methods in foreign countries. This, unquestionably, is one tiling which has increased the prosperity of this country and brought it to the commanding position it now holds in tip world's affairs. To the young business man or farmer,^nothing is more neces sary than the establishment of his cfiedil with a strong, progressive bank, which can help him when he needs it. Consistent, systematic saving will dt more to establish that credit

than any other one thing.

A credit standing with the CENTRAL is a valuable asset to

any man. f

sheer Foresight A hard-working farmer in Ohio had sent his sou* to a good school ot music so that lie might receive tlie best instructieii from the beginning. It was nicessary to buy a violin for him, Uut he was such a little chap that his teacher thought that a so-called “half-violin would do. The father/ whose recources had been badly taxed, was loath to part with the money for the instrument, but fmally did so. 'i he lad made rapid progress, and became so proficient that a halfviolin was no longer good enough for him. Again he went to the music-store with his father, to whom the salesman |howed the entire stock of violins. The parent was apparently dissatisfied with ail of them, and his gaze wandered round the shop seeking for something better. Finally he saw a violincello. "We’ll take the big violin there.” said he, as a smile of satisfaction spread over hi countenance. "The boy won’t outgrow that right iwayP —Harper’s Magazine.
