l have overdrawn on my commits

1t would be just like old Bullock,
under the circumstances, to have
someone examine the books, because
he knows was one of Harry's best
friends. This thing is going to get
very hot in the newspapers and if

Leslie tried to tell me the other
day something about Ellington but l
wouldn't bear it. I've learned my
lesson now, Sgd, and I'll take her
advice always after this - provided
she doesn't advise me to dabble in

that man make his getaway! It is a
good thing I haven't met him in New

DO YOU REMEMBER

DO YOU REMEMBER
A YEAR AGO TODAY?
How much money have you saved
since then? That's too bad, no year
should be allowed to slip away with
out saving something. Better see me
about the Fidelity Building and
Loan Association Of Valley City.
They have a new and safe way OF
handling Savings. For every $500
per month saved for period of eight
years $480.O0~paid in) they pay
back 100000. Save $500 per month
for eight years and get back $4,000. O0
in cash. You do not have to die, to
get the benefit of your savings. This
is q safer propOAiiton than any bank
can offer. Don't wait until you are
