SAVINGS BANK HAS
SECURED VALUABLE ASSET

Money is not the only valuable as
set that corporation, or for that mat
ter any institution, public or private,
can secure. There are other assets
more valuable and more important
to the success of the enterprise than
money These assest shou'a not be
hard to procure. but sometimes they
are not so easy to find. They are
generally inherent in the men VINO
possess them and sometimes seem al
most impossible of requirement and
yet if not inherent it is possible for
more of the human family to possess
themselves of them, if they only
would.
Efficiency is essential IN the han
ding OF ony business. public or pri-
vate. but the efficiency that counts
most is the efficiency which gives
the best service. In other words. the
test of efficiency is service. A man
NAV know all of the rules and the
little details as we'll as the big ones
of business, and yet. if he fails in
rendering a service that really serves
the public, he is not in fact efficient.
To know how to meet the pubic
pleasantly, and to make the man VINO
has business with your institution
feel good when he comes, and feel
like he wants to come again and not
have a d1 cad of going into your OF
fce-politeness courtesy-these are
the things that count And these are
the things that the Newberry Savings
Bank has gotten in securing Rober,
NJ. Lominack. and he will prove a
big asset for the institution. Efficient
not only as bookkeeper and account
ant, but efficient in the larger anG
better sense that he knows how to
serve the public. Always pleasant
and nice and courteous and polite, il
will be pleasure to go to the bank
and have business with it. We cona
gratulate the bank on securing his
services. He went with the institu-
ton on the first We miss him from
this side He had been with the
Purcell company for some years.
