Thanks CAN A BANK FEEL THANKFUL?

CAN IT EXPERIENCE THE EMOTIONS OF GRATITUDE AND APPRECIATION THE WAY PEOPLE DO?

Of Course It Can! . . . Your Bank IS People.

The Board of Directors, ail of our officers, the men and women who form the staff of this Bank, all join in saying, simply but sincerely:

"THANKS! It has been a pleasure to ser\e You during 1954."

The year-end is also a time to pause and express to our good friends and customers that you have been the source of the great progress this Bank has ex(>erienced in 1954. It has been a source of encourage-ment and inspiration to know that we have had your support.

To us, the new year ahead is an opportunity . . . and a challenge to find ways to serve you better. We shall continue our policy of im-proving our services whenever posalble, for the benefit of our cus-tomers and the community.

Before moving into 1956, we couldn't pass the opportunity of telling you how we all feel about your patronage, and to wish you on the part of all of us here at the bank:
