let any school have a Dormatory, but
when shown it was purely Agriculture

Most of us are selfish, ever
looking tor h main chance,
constantly asking, "W b is
there in 1t for me?" This is all
right. We would hardly expect
anyone to do business with us to
their own disadvantage, but we
think they should study the sit
uation enough before they send
their business elsewhere, to as
certain wherein they themselves
are to be benefited. Now as re-
CARDS sending their money away
to distant cities for deposit we
have never been able TO see how
that benefits the one who sends
or the community IN which he
lives. several banks in Ogden
and Salt Lake are making
strong appeals for deposits to be
sent them. They pay less inter
est than local banks, yet many
people are sending their money
to them nevertheless. We feel
like presenting a barrel of apples
to the man who will come to
the bank some day and make
clear to us how he is personally
benefited by having his money
deposited in large city bank
instead of this bank. Our opin-
ion is we would be able to keep
the apples a long time. 1t al.
ways pays to be fair and sensi.
bic. If you wish to be prosper.
Gus keep your money here.
We pay 4 per cent on savings
deposits and compound the in.
terest quarterly.
