HAS THE HOME WOMAN USES
FOR A SAFE DEPOSIT BOX?

hAO n T. nOmE WOmAN OoES
FOR A SAFE DEPOSIT BOX?
To be sure she has. Her home con.
tains many priced keepsakes and heir
looms which, by reason of their as
sociations, could never be replaced il
stolen, or destroyed by fire.
They should not, therefore, be en-
trusted to bureau drawers or other
hooks about the home where they are
likely to become mislaid or forgotten
and where they will have little if any
protection against fire or theft.
Home robberies occur frequently
owing to the insecurity of such hiding
places. Even home or wall safes have
proved inadequate to prevent the dep
relations of the burglar.
Furthermore, strange people come
and go more or less freely in the
many of the hiding places which con-
tain the family treasures.
Clearly, then, valuables are not safe
in the home, and the woman needs the
security of safe deposit box.
Her Private Papers Must be Secure
Besides her own costly jewels and
certain cherished family relics OF
enough intrinsic value to tempt the
marauder, the woman frequently has
the custody of papers relating to the
management of the home.
The household furniture and the
home itself are insured-but where
are the policies-the very papers that
will be needed first in case of fire
Too often they are laid away in a
compartment of the writing desk
within the house they insure.
Then she may have some invest
rnents of her own-bonds or mort
cages, certificates of deposit, stock
certificates, a savings pass book and
perhaps her will. There are always
valuable documents and letters which
must be kept in privacy and security.
What place is there that so complete
ly answers the requirements as does
the safe deposit box?
Absolute Privacy with a Safe
Deposit Box.
By renting a safe deposit box you
may enjoy even greater privacy than
that of your home itself, and examine
your private papers secure from pry-
ing eyes.
Upon entering the vault, your steel
safe is opened by the insertion of your
key in conjunction with the custodian's
Ia precaution making it impossible
for stranger to open your box) and
you withdraw the long metal box con-
tanning your valuables.
When you are ready you take the
metal receptacle back, slip it in place,
close the safe, and step to the street.
The officers of the bank are always
glad to give advice and information
financial matters, and I'M
familiarity with business customs
need not cause any woman to hesitate
to make her wants known.
You are cordially invited to come
in and inspect the safe deposit vault,
and to make free use of the facilities
and conveniences placed at your dis
Dosal by this and other departments
If this bank.
