swiftly. in Arabic. His men dropped
their lances upon the ground. with a
clatter, and prostrated themselves at
Antonius' feet, touching the ground
with their foreheads.
The soldier tucked his sword into its
sheath.

The little elder breathed a sigh of

nor years Maine has been looking forward to
i the time when she could reap more largely of
the advantages which are naturally hers.
Now the corner is turned. Signs of approach:
ing prosperity are unmstakable
Maine, it seems certain, is soon to take an
increasingly larger share of the prosperity which
the Nation now enjoys.
From now on we shall see larger and larger
influx of outside people who come to Maine, first,
to make summer h ZONES then to make permanent ]
their residence here; later to take part in our busi
ness and social activities
Let us welcome these visitors. Let us treat
them with the cordially for which all New England
is famous. No matter how transient their visit let
us make them feel like staying longer. Let's make
them feel like coming again.
Let us remember that every visitor who enters
the State of Maine leaves money with our citizens,
and leaves something of the larger life
This money finds its way through every thread
OF our social fabric. The butcher, the baker, the

merchant and banker, all get proportionate
share; we develop in every way.
The fruitage of the years is ours for the gath:
ering.
Property values should increase. Resort Sec
tons and farm land should come into their own.
In every department of our life in Maine we
should see and feel better times
This bank stands by Maine interests and Maine
people more courageously than ever before.
This bank is here to protect them and to slim
ulate them: to act not only as custodian of their
profits,-not only as treasurer for their funds but
to play the larger role of counselor and financial
adviser asking only the opportunity to serve.
For your own well-being, for your own future
happiness and prosperity we urge you to face the
coming years with increasing faith in this good old
State.
Have faith in Maine
Maine will pay you handsomely for your con:
