For banking is essentially a business of service, and service that is not given happily is worse than no service. The impersonal, haughty bank official has been succeeded by the man who takes a personal interest in the clients of the bank, who regards the man with a balance of a few dollars with the same human kind- ness as the man whose balances hover around four or five fig- ures. The officers of The Scandinavian American Bank are always available without red tape. They are easily found at the entrance of the banking rooms, and are ready and pleased to talk with our depositors on matters affecting their financial affairs. It is this spirit of human interest that has built The Scandinavian American Bank into the Largest Savings Institu- tion in the Pacific Northwest. Every account here is absolutely safeguarded by the bank’s membership in the Washington Bank Depositors’ Fund. We hope to have the pleasure of greeting you personally on your next visit here.
