It is a bank at which the people, in time of need, can get help with no feeling of personal obligation or humiliation and with the knowledge that they will be treated with all the courtesy which as patrons of a bank, they are entilted to. We solicit the patronage of all classes, from the laborer to the business man, temporarily in need of ready cash.
