SOMETHING FOR THE “KIDDIES”

Father and Mother, Too. Y'es, and Big Brother and Sister. Good news “kiddies” the First National Bank has joined the Landis Christmas Saving Club. It means that you now can be “grown-up” and. have a bank book all your own where you can put your pennies away and then just before next Christmas you will have quite a sum ready for you just to buy things with. But then after saving so hard perhaps you won’t want it all and will take juflt a part, and then you'll have a little “nest egg” for when you’re really “grown-up.” On December 21 the First National Bank will start its Christmas Saving Club. You can become a member of this club by the payment of one penny, two pennies or a nickel, owing to—which class you join. Then say you have joined the penny class, you will pay the next week two pen nies, the next three pennies and so on for 50 weeks, the last week’s payment amounting to 50 cents. You will then get a check, just two weeks before Christmas, for $12.75. In the two cent class you pay two cents the first week, three cents the next, four cents the next and so on, and you will get a cheek in this class for $25.50. In the five cent class you pay five cents the first week, 10 cents the next, 15 cents the next and so on, and you will get a check for $63.75. Or you may reverse the payments in any of the above classes by paying the largest amount the first week and gradually lowering the payments down to the first payment of the class you join. This way you will get a little larger sum as you will receive more interest money. Payments must be made promptly every week or in advance for as many weeks as may be convenient. Everybody is welcome to join and the First National Bank will be glad to have you call and learn all about it.
