Richards & Son Se The Value of Good Banking Connections is often not realized until it is too late.

The loss of interest and principal on securities carelessly © handled means the loss of several million dollars eve year to people who are not prudent. enough to establish good banking connections. This bank has cared for and collected the interest regularly and promptly on customer’s securities amount- ing to several hundred thousand dollars without the loss of a penny to our customers, and at no expense to them, This is one of the many services which has earned for this bank the honor of being known as “The Bank of Service.” It is not only prudent but good business policy to do your banking \ith The First National Bank COTTONWOOD, IDAHO — Let Us Print Your Stationery SOSH SD: cording to all reports.
