BE A WEST FELICiANIAN.

We take pleasure in calling attention
to the letter of Mr. e. G. Davis, presi-
dent of the Bank of Commerce, con-
corning the practice of banking else
where save in the home town, and
showing that it initiates against the
merchants of that town. The point is
we'll taken and we hope will arouse
local merchants to the Importance of
standing by the home bank. They but
help themselves. And they may well
assure themselves that any business
diverted from the home bank will not
return here for their benefit.
The matter of loyalty to West Fe.
liciana, advanced as slogan by the
Bank of Commerce, should become the
watchword of all, each one seeking to
give service as he may, or can, to the
parish where he has his home and
business.
