SOUND METHODS EVIDENCED The soundness of the methods of a financial institution is evidenced most accurately by its earnings. The surplus and profits of this bank now amount to over $37,000.00 —a fund which has all been earned and.is larger than that of any other bank in Bates county. Another evi- dence of the conservative policy of this institution is the fact that it was the first bank in Butler to establish the rule of not making any loans.to directors, officers or employees. We invite you to open an account, either for checking or savings, and avail yourself of the complete safety this bank affords. Our Service Means Profit to You , RESPONSIBILITY To the Public: RESPONSIBILE banking is the policy under which this institution has been managed since the first day the doors were opened. That this policy is appreciated is indicated by the constant and gratifying growth in business. It is the desire of the officers of this bank to continue adding new accounts of those individu- als desiring the most efficient service and RE- SPONSIBLE BANKING. — ‘ ‘ On our record of responsibility your patron- age is invited.
