I have a fair salary, put a few dollars in the "East Chicago State" each week, and have an automobile. My prospects are good, too, but it means a big responsibility and for a time I could not give her all I would wish. What do you think about it? Anxiously, BOB.

The Things to Do Regularly Vou get up 5n time. Your alarm clock rings regularly. You eat breakfast at a regular time, get to work .t a regular time, quit at a regular time, have supper it a regular time, go to church at a regular time. After all, regularity is habit. So is saving. Most people who have money ahead in this bank do not have it because they put in big amounts at irregular times but because they put in small amounts at regular times something each pay day. For instance, $ 10 put in a savings account at this bank each pay day amounts to something in six or twelve months. Why not have an account here and be regular with it? Regularity in saving will soon make your bank book a worth-while possession.
