A Savings Bank Worthy of Patronage
From Newport Express and Standard

From Newport Express and Standard
While few have chosen to criti-
else Carroll S. Page for his liberal
use of printers ink in the advertising
of the Hyde Park Savings Bank, the
fact goes to prove that the use Of it
for the past six months has increased
the deposits in his Savings Bank
nearly quarter of a million dollars.
1t only tends to prove that Carroll
s. Page has the confidence of his
many depositors who are not only
from his own county but throughout
the state at large.
A bank that believes in home in
vestments, that finds plenty of OPP
portunities for those investments at
home, and transacts its financial
affairs upon solid basis without
assuming unnecessary risks, is wor-
thy of patronage and its promoters
worthy Of unbounded praise.
There are opportunities enough
tor good solid investments in Yer
mont if one has the eye and the
keenness to look them up Carroll S.
Page has an eye for these invest
ments and this is why he holds the
public confidence in the Hyde Park
Savings Bank.

~. N. Marble, Portrait Painter. y

]. N. Marble of New York, whose
Studio and old home are here,
where he spends most of his sum-
mera, is in Santa Barbara, Calf.
this winter. A woman reporter
from the Santa Barbara Independent
interviewed him the other day and
gives a very appieciative account OF
his work. The interviewer writes !.
]. N. Marble, portrait painter,
Bohemian and New Highlander, is
proud to add another title to those,
one hat proves him a man of dis
cernment as we'll as OF strong sense.
Thar title is lover of Santa Barbara.
Nov, Mia Marble proves his right
to that sobriquet by having kept the
Mission city in his mind for quar-
ter OF century and then, in answer
to the persistent call of the noun
tains and sea, returning to the place
that he knew and loved in 1889.
An interesting chat with the artist
on pictures and people follows and
the interviewer concludes:
"Mr. Marble is to remain in Santa
Barbara until spring and he intends
to catch some of the quaint streets,
which in time may be as valuable as
the now closed gate of the Old Mis-
sion or the picture OF Fremont's
headquarters, which house fell to
pieces years ago while being re-
moved and of which Mr.. Marble be-
lieves that he has the only authentic
painting"

Savings Bank investments at Home.
From the Bristol Herald

/
c. S. Page, the calfskin man and
banker, of Hyde Park, is firm be-
lever in advertising.
| And the results obtained are such
as to cause him to feel that his policy
is the correct one. Mr.. Page has
built up at Hy de Park business in
calf skins that is second to none in
the world and annually has to in
crease the size OF his plant to meet
the demands Of the business.
This speaks well for Mr.. Page,
who has made Hyde Park famous as
the calfskin center of the world.
Mr.. Page has also found time to
help start a savings bank in his town,
conducted on Page ideas, and it Is
today one of the leading banking in
situations of Vermont and has done
muchto help Vermont industries.
The banks investments are right
here at home where the bank Off
cials can examine them personally.
This is safeguard that is appre-
ciated by depositors.
1t is needless for us to state that
the public has faith in Page, his con-
servatism and careful business meth
DDS.
The Hyde Park savings bank has
gained nearly quarter of a million
in deposits deposits in the past six
months, due in great measure to
judicious advertising. =
Other savings institutions would
benefit greatly if they adopted such
a course.
If you have a good thing, adver-
tise it. That is what c. S. Page has
done and the results prove that it
pays.

$235,000 Gain in Savings Depos
its in Six Months.
From Die Hardwick Gazette.


Notwithstanding the scare in the
financial world and the failure of a
few large banking institutions Yer
mont banks have increased their de-
posts during the past year and one
of these is the Hyde Park Savings
bank. In six months the deposits OF
this bank increased $235,ooo. The
bank inaugurated an advertising
campaign some time ago to increase
its deposits and by the persistent,use
of printers ink little short of phe-
nomenal results have followed.
Then, too, the business methods OF
its president, ex-Gov. Page, is
another reason for the record.
