What Makes a Savings Bank Safe7

The man or woman who thinks of MAX
ing a deposit of his or her little savings,
oftentimes his or her all, naturally does
some hard thinking with reference to the
matter of safety. There are great
many financial institutions which parade
at the head of their announcements a
long list of distinguished names, names
which are an ornament, and names of
men whose association with any Savings
Bank ought to make a bank worthy of
confidence.
Depositors should not be deceived by
these names. The names of General Sc
and So and Hon. So-and So and Col. So
and So do not belong to that class of d.
rectors who do not direct.
In this connection the Hyde Park Saw
ings Bank has a word to say. 1t is a
matter of common knowledge that the
managers of this bank have given to its
investments such careful consideration
and scrutiny that in its more than TWEEN
ty-three years Of existence it has never
lost dollar by poor note-a record
perhaps unparalleled in the history of
banks. Not only do its managers scru-
tinize with painstaking care every detail
connected with its investments, but the
| results show that those investments are
made conservatively and with deter
mination that safety rather than high
rates of interest shall be the guiding prin-
ciple of the Bank.
Parties thinking OF making deposits
are invited to address the President
Carroll S, Page, or the Treasurer, Frank
NJ. Culver, Hyde Park, Vt, asking for
statement of its assets and liabilities.
Deposits made either by registered mail
check, postal money order, or express
money order, are absolutely safe, as in
the twenty-three years experience not a
dollar has ever been lost by a deposition
sending money to this bank by mail.
