= DepOsitOrS Good Returns
According to the cashiers of both
! the First National Bank and the
Peoples Bank of this town, who
have been interviewed, they have
paid out during the past week to
depositors in their Christmas clubs
nearly $4,000. Every year this
manner of saving grows more popu-

increasing in number and amounts.
According to the annual custom,
Friday, December 14th, will be OBJ
served as turkey day at this point.
Thousands of dollars will exchange
hands between the buyers and the
farmers in this vicinity who are
lucky enough to have grown large
flocks of turkeys. Every conceiv-
able conveyance from a farm wa
gon or dearborn to the rear of a
Ford truck will be used to bring
the fowl to market. Most of them
are purchased by the high dollar,
several of the buyers being in keen
competition to land a load of choice
birds.
