THE HYDE PARK
SAVINGS BANK
Passed the Two and One-Half Million
Dollar Milestone Jan. lst.

On the 21st day of January,
1889, the Hyde Park Savings
Bank opened its doors to the pub
lie. On the first day of January,
1913 its assets were $2,515,910.98.
For p years it has been a lead
ing factor in the development,
progress and growth of every
business enterprise, within its le-
ultimate sphere of business which
has applied to it for financial as
sistance and backing.
In these "a years we have passed
through two monetary or business
panics, panics so severe in the
financial world that the great ma
jority of the banks Of the country
were compelled to withhold fnan-
cial aid to those who asked therfor.
But during all these years the
Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Co. has never declined a
loan asked for by any business inter
est Of Lalnoille County, or indeed
of any other County in Vermont,
which could legitimately expect to
be cared for by this bank.
1t has been a pillar of strength
which has never failed in times of
direst financial stress.
1t extends its kindly greetings
to Nermonters everywhere as it
commences its 25th year of sub
stantial progress and suggests that
when you have any surplus money
to deposit at 4 per cent-all taxes
paid by the Bank-you make your
deposit with the Hyde Park Bank,
feeling the fullest assurance that
in so doing you will place your
money where it is safe beyond a
reasonable doubt.
The Hyde Park Savings Bank
has an earned surplus of $97, 342.-
IS; its capital and stockholders
liability is $10O,000.OO so that be-
fore any depositor could suffer a
loss the bank would have to loose
$197, 342.35.
That such loss is entirely inn
probable is evidenced by the fact
that in the "a years of the Bank S
existence it has never lost a dollar
by a poor note and believes that to-
day every dollar of its assets,
whether in notes, bank stocks OF
bonds, is good beyond a reasonable
doubt.

of Americas best loved sons This
unusually picturesque character, who
died recently. though he unused close
to nature in his woodland home far
from the sounds of modern life. was,
nevertheless. always close to his fell

age of seventy-one caused sorrow to
thousands of his cOuntrymen.
For twenty-five years, while the
Poet of the Sierras.' as he was low
ing known, lived in the retreat his
cabin was mecca for both the famed
and unknown geniuses Of every sort.
His writings. coming out of the woods
with their seeming breath of green
things. kept him ever before thousands
of admirers.
Miller had an adventurous career
during the early part of his life He
was captured by Modoc Indians and
reared with them as a boy. Later he
fought in an Indian war. went on a
filibustering expedition and was wound
ed and captured He figured in sew,

Of his ventures.
He always declared he did not care
for writing because of his belief that
a person who wrote for a living could
not think much. and person who did
not think much was not fulfilling the
best purposes of life.
His splendid poetry almost entirely
treated of the wonders of nature He
had small patience for literature that
exploited war and warriors.
