.All investments which the*Saline
Savings Bank makes from money
deposited in the' Savings Department are kept entirely separate
from the investments made from
other funds deposited. <*
The State law requires this. It
permits savings deposits to "be invested only in certain "classes of securities and then requires that
these securities be segregated and
held for the sole protection of Sav-
lngs Depositors.   .
This Ts a wise precaution which
we are. glad to follow at aii times.
It .makes this strong bank an especially deiirable depository for
your savings.

and three daughters, three sons dying in earliest ifcifa,ney. Mr. S'ehroen
spent 58 years of his life in SaYne

his rugged hon:_ty and self-sacrificing character made for himself a
host or friends, of which the large
concourse at his burial gave mute
testimony.

Church 'has lost ,one of her most
faithful members and the v'llage a
respected citizen.
He - passed •peaeefiilly away last'
Saturday afternoon, June 5. at the
