THE FIRST STEP
In Obtaining a Real Estate Loan
When you want to secure a real estate
loan it is important to get started right.
The "way to do it is to come to this bank
first, and talk to an officer about the kind
best suited to your needs.
Customers will tell you that our rates
are low, options liberal and that the personal interest we take in their plans is
worth many dollars to them in money and
satisfaction.
Why not take that "first step" now—
by coming in to see us? It will pay you.

I have kissed recruit training
goodbye for the last time. Previous service did not excuse anyone from going through the same
