A fact not generally known, and
one in which the managers of the
Lamoiile County Savings Bank
and Trust Co. of Hyde Park may
justly take pride, is the fact that
this institution had on deposit
March 3Ist, 1891, when but a
month or two over two years old,
the unprecedented sum of $685.
1860.
1t is very evident that the con.
sentative methods and careful man
agement which has characterized
this institution from the beginning
is taking deep root, and begetting
a confidence in the minds of the
investing public which will insure
continued growth, and may right
fully be a source of pride to any
Bank, old or young.
1t should be remembered by in
vestors that this Bank guarantees
4 per cent. a year, compounded
semi-annually, with no taxes to the
depositor on sums not exceeding
$4,000 All sums, deposited any
time during April, will draw inter
est from April Ist. Present de-
positors should send in any surplus
funds and those who have not a
book with this Bank should take
one NOW by making their first
deposit, and be surprised in the
fall to see how large their savings
have been during the summer. An
account once opened is seldom
dropped. BEGIN NOW.
