on Aup. 28, a ID-months' Be>ssion i
o' school was opened at Skagway
Alaska, as we learn from our inter- :
Wing four-page, 10c. contemporary,

prevalent epidemio of measles, 8C j
youngsters answered the roll call
and listered to the introductory
speech, otf the new principal, Miss
Eenthien. We should liave lijc&d. to
heir it, too; for this able teacher
of ma'aematic^ taught her last
school about as far away from
Alaska a a you could imagine—in
Mif8lon City, Mexico. Just a year
ago i* was that she led her Mexi
can pupils in the singing of "Am-|

iWhat Makes This Bank Safe?
fit I
■
Many matters enter into the queston of Safety
11 for those who carry an Account with us. But back
S3 of all stands the character of men who direct our
affairs. The probity of these men is well known in
^ the community. Their responsibility is unquestioned.
3 Their experience is the result of years of successful
9 conduct of their own affairs. Examine with care the
careers of the men who direct this Bank and you will
S be convinced of the safety afforded you here.
i Jn the least analysis it is to the human
v element .von must look for safety. SAFE
MEN mean a SAFE BANK.
