only Robbins, but the crowd, knew
that the local idol had real foot

Robbins was an ideal athlete in

80 yards ran evenly, amid the
cries of the crowd. AS we passed
the 3O-yard mark opened up and
broke the tape four yards to the

Poor Robbins was broken-heart-

BEGIN SAVING AND SEE
YOURSELF GROW

The moment a young man
begins to save his money sys-
tematically he becomes a
larger man.
He takes broader views of
life and begins to have better
opinion of himself. Trust takes
the place of doubt, and self
confidence replaces fear.
The man with nothing in the
bank is handicapped. He finds
himself unable to compete sue
cessfully with those of thrifty
habits, and is forced to the rear
in the race.
If you want to grow, If you
are ambitious to cut some fig
ure in the world and enjoy the
fruits cs success, you must save
and invest your money. There
is no Other. way.
One dollar will start you
right. And we will be glad to
show you how to begin. Call
