The Hy de Park Savings
Bank
From the swanton Courier

In the larger centers of trade the value OF
advertising is recognized to a much greater
extent than in the rural districts and still
advertising rightly done pays as well in one as
the other This Is pretty conclusively proven
by the experience OF the Hyde Park Savings
Bank which has been conducting a vigorous
advertising campaign all through the state for
the past six months with the result that its
deposits have increased since July by nearly
quarter of million dollars.
The advertising methods of the Hyde Park
Savings Bank have been the subject OF some
criticism in the state banking circles, but Mr.
Page was evidently after business and went
after it in the same way he has built up the
largest hide business in the world in little out
of the way Hyde Park, by the liberal and
judicious use of printers ink.
OF course advertising has not done it all
for the people generally throughout the state
have confidence in Mr. Pages conservatism
and business ability and are pleased with the
banks policy of keeping its loans all in Yer.
mont to foster Vermont enterprises and bust
ness.
The record of the bank in not having los
a dollar by poor note in its nineteen years
of existence has undoubtedly been another
factor IN securing this remarkable gain il
business.
All of these things have doubtless had
weight, but to get back to the value of adver
Using how would the people all over tn,
state have been made acquainted with them
except through advertising?

The symptoms described in the follow
