The course of business will depend upon the course of the war—and that cannot he forecast.

It is with these thoughts in mind that we wish you, and all Americans, not merely prosperity in the New Year, but an increasing measure of national security. - ■ ' . : i : BANK OF DEMOTTE “A Good Bank la A Good Town’* DEMOTTE, IND.
