The LamolHe County Savings
Bank g Trust Co.,
Hyde Park, Vermont

The recent Vermont Bank Examiners re-
port, prediCated upon the condition of Vermont
Savings Banks on the Goth day of June, 1921 is
full of very interesting Banking facts and we
are pleased to draw therefrom certain conclu-
sionS of interest to the prospective deposition.
Every banker knows that there are certain
6 ear marks " which point Enthusiastically and
unerringly to Strong and Safe Savings Bank
and the thrifty depositor is quick to draw his
conclusions when these facts are brought to his
attention. If he can ascertain which is the
Safest and Strongest he accepts no other. His
motto is, "The Best is none too good, the Safest
none too Safe
The following six high points" in bank
ing tell their own story and are interesting read
ing to the thrifty man or woman, boy or girl
who is looking for Conservative, Strong, Solid,
Safe Bank.
1st The Hyde Park Bank carries more than
half million dollars of Government Bonds. No other
Savings Bank in Vermont carries as many in proper
ton to it's size.
2nd The most severe test of a Banks strength
is its ability to respond to emergency calls. During
the Liberty Loan Drive this Bank invested in Gov
eminent securities more than one million dollars,
nearly 40 per cent of it's entire deposits We think
other Bank in Vermont matched this record. In
response to calls from the United States Treasury
the Hyde Park Bank subscribed for and took S750OOO
of United States Certificates. No other bank in
Vermont large or small State or National subscribed
as much by 100000. Indeed, the combined sub
scrptions of 80 Vermont banks at that time less
than that of the Hyde Park Bank alone.
3rd The Hyde Park Bank carried June 80,
1921, in cash, bonds and municipal securities,
1916, 215-beng than SO per cent of the Banks
deposits. Less than one in eight of the Savings
Banks of Vermont carried this percentage.
4th: Less than one in ten of the Savings Banks
of Vermont carried as large percentage of their de-
posits in actual cash the Hyde Park Bank shown
by the last Bank Examiners report.
9TH: Of the thirty-three Savings Banks in Yer
mont, organized since 1889, when the Hyde Park
Bank was organized, there is only one whose surplus
equals that of the Hyde Park Bank.
9th: The fact is now well established that the
Lamoille County Savings Bank & Trust Co. is the
largest Bank in the World in a Country Village. No
other village of it's size has equal assets deposits
No fact speaks louder as to the confidence of the
people of Vermont in the Hyde Park Bank.
If you believe in the old adage-" Don't put all your
eggs basket" and the foregoing points
elusive in your mind as to the Superiority Soidy Strength
and Safety the Hyde Park Bank should be pleased to
number you among deposo and receive share of your

itos 1t therefore, pays interest deposits from the day they
