We are pleased to inform you that we have succeeded in securing a lirrtited number of GENUINE HAND GRENADES from the United States Government, which will be delivered to us about August 11th. The Hand Grenades were made to blow up German trenches, but as these have been converted into Savings Banks, we want the boys and girls of this community to secure one and let them perform the good purpose of enabling them to save their pennies and dimes, the same to be deposited in our bank. We will loan any boy or girl one of these Hand Grenades and as soon as you have put enough dimes in it and purchase one War Savings Stamp, the Grenade becomes your own property. This is the easiest opportunity that you will have to secure one of the best souvenirs of the great World War. ?THE? First National Bank LANCASTER, S. C. Chas. D. Jones, President, E. M.
