The Next President.
The next President <~,f the United
States is a currency reformer.
Governor Wilson says: "The
question of currency reform lies
very near to the prosperity of the
country. Vv'e suffer from crises
because of our unscientific system
of currency."
Colonel Roosevelt says: "There
must be a revision of our currency
laws, because to leave them ac
they are means to incur liability of
business disaster."
President Taft savs: "Banking
and currency reform is necessary
to the interests of a!! the people."
If the election of president
should be thrown into the house
and that of vice-president into the
senate, and the house failed to
choose president, and the senate
should choose a vice-president,
this vice president would on March
4 become president.

It will not always come to Father and Mother for pen

perhaps Father and Mother may not be here to give.
“Have you ever thought of the importance of
training your child into the habit of saving? It is
easy to train a child and ‘as the twig is bent, so is
the tree inclined.'
“Open a Savings Account with us in the name of
your child. How proud it will be to have a Bank Ac
count all its own! You know how you would have
felt the glow of pride if your parents had given you a
Bank Account all your own. Wonldn't you have
saved and added to it?
