Bonds interest at fire per cent could Here is an interesting study: Make out a list of all the people you know, and estimate the amount of money each one earns in a year.* Total it up. The amount will bq surprisingly large. Now, of all those people, only the few who SAVE SOMETHING really make any thing at all. Simply earning money isn’t mak ing it—what slips through the'earner’s fingers is finally “made” by somebody else. Don’t forget to count yourself in on „ the list, and if you are not “making” money begin now ; save with us. One dollar will open your bank account. . * Interest of 4 percent in Savings Department.
