MONTPELIER

The Montpelier National bank has
placed by authority Of the board Of
school commissioners, an automatic
receiving teller In each school building
for the purpose Of encouraging thrift
and saving among the pupils. The
plan of operation IL as follows: Pu-
pills deposit coins in tcllers and re-
ceive in exchange stamps of the same
| denomination as the money deposited.
/ The stamps are payable to bearer but
IF the stamps bear the initials Of the
owner they will not be redeemed at
the bank except on presentation by
owner or upon his order. Savings
stamp folders are furnished to which
| the stamps are attached. The name
and address Of the depositors are writ
ten on the folder and when one dol
lars worth or more of stamps il at
tached to the folder IL may be pre-
scented at the Montpelier National
bank for deposit or for cash. A thor
ough search and study has disclosed
no more practical device better adapt
ed for the teaching Of thrift to the
pupils than the automatic teller. Its
simplicity Of operation and the fact
that 1t will take coins from one cent
to twenty five cents help to make it
factor which directly correlates the
work in the school with that OF the
bank, The system goes into operation
today.
