SAVE MONEY! COMMENCE NOW!
The less money you have the greater your need for savings. You should
buy you a home. You expect to buy a home sometime. If you wait until
you can pay all cash for it, you will never buy. Commence saving by tak
ing stock with us to-day, and when you want to buy or build, come and get
your savings, and if you need borrow the balance from us and pay your
house rent to yourself. Don’t you know that the rent you are now paying
will about pay your building and loan dues and interest, and at the end of
six years you will have a home instead of a bundle of rent receipts. See us.

AT THE THEATRE- •
The Greensboro, N. C., Industrial
News has the following to say of
“The Holy City,” which played in that
city Friday night and which will be
shown here tonight:
“The momentous and stirring scenes
preceding and following the tragedy
of Calvary were depicted in a strong,
impressive and admirable manner in
the play of ‘The Holy City’ at the
Grand last night.
"The scriptural story as recorded
by the evangelists is closely follow
ed. except that there is no Impersona
tion of Christ, and Interwoven in the
narrative is a t bread of romance deal
ing with the love of Sajome, daughter
I of Herodias, for Marius, a young
; Roman, the love story reaching its
' climax when Salome by mistake kills
j Marius for Andrew, and, accepting
the Christian faith, stabs herself and
| falls lifeless upon the body of Marius,
| who had also accepted that faith.
“Presented In the play are the
i characters of Caiphas. Pontius, Pilate,
' Herod. Herodias. Salome, John the
■ Baptist, Peter, Andrew. Nlcodemus,
I Judas, Iscariot, Elizabeth, mother of
John, and Mary Magdalene. Among
the scenes portrayed are the dance
i of Salome, the head of John the Bap-
| tist on a charge, the stoning of Mary
Magdalene, the purchase of Judas
with thirty pieces of silver, the con
demnation of Jesus, etc. The cruci
fixion was shown In a picture, after
j Michael Angelo’s masterpiece.
“The resurrection and flight of the
angels were also represented*, bv a
picture. The curtain falls In the last
act while the song of ‘The Holy City*
Is being rendered behind the scenes.
“It may readily be imagined that
the play is a difficult one, anu cabs
for histrionic talent of high order.
An all-star cast, find in it no easy
task. The well-balanced company of
last night presented splendid .york
In its efforts, and its merit deserved
a larger audience. Entitled to special
mention are J. H. WSUIams, as An
drew, whose work wag superb; I,. D-
Kirk, as Pontius Pilate; Clay Cle
ment. Jr., as Marius; John E. Puorak,
as John the Baptist, and Miss Pauline
A. Harlce. as Salome.
“The stage settings wero very ef
fective and the costumes true to t^
period. As a historic and religious
play, ‘The Holy City* Is deserving of
high rank, and should prove effective
In Impressing the solemn truths In
volved In the narrative.”

A BASIS FOR CREDIT
Before a business man can borrow money he must establish a credit. The'
people who make the loan must have confidence in the borrower to start
with and then adequate securety. If the borrower, through continued de
posits, has become known to the officers of the bank, he has established a
basis of credit, which makes it an easy matter to secure any reasonable at ^
commodation. All business men require the aid of outside capital at times.
Some day you will need to borrow to close some advantageous purchase
Begin to establish your credit now by opening a bank account and keeping
it growing. One dollar will open an accouut. We pay 4 per cent, inter
est on Savings and Time Deposits. ^

“Brother, you look as if something dieadful had happened?’
‘Yes, Mr. John Doe died last night leaving his wife and three Httle
children homeless and penniless in the world.’ Sad, sad indeed!
How easily he could have carried a couple of thousand dollars of The
Southern Life and Trust Co’s. Economic Bonds. That insurance is not
costly, yet, it is among the safest and best in the world. My advice to
any man who has or has not a family is to go to the Gaffney Trust Co’s,
office in the National Bank building and examine these policies.
‘The company handles Twenty-four different forms of policies,
any of which gives the finest values on the market. Think of John Doe
and don't wait. Take your policy before sunset today. You may fail
to pass your medical examination if you wait another day.
‘Go straight to the Gaffney Trust Co. and see for yourself—seeing is
believing—experiencing is knowing—you can sleep satisfied if your
family is protected—PROTECT THEM NOW BY INSURING IN THE
SOUTHERN LIFE AND TRUST COMPANY.’ ’’

The Venetian Band Is composed of
musicians, nearly all of whom are ex-
1 cellent soloists on their respective In
struments.
I A number of compositions will be
programed to enable them to domon-
| strate their ability as solo artists.
The organization will also have the
assistance of a strong vocal soloist,
that shall be worthy of the band.
Victor and his band have a reper
toire of four hundred and fifty clas
sical and popular selections, from
which programs can be selected to
please all tastes of the most exacting
audiences.
The Washington, D. C., Post has
the following to say about the Royal
Venetian Band:
“The soloists are so uniformly
good, and the band so well balanced
that the ensemble presents a com
plementary whole that Is not only In
teresting but delightfully refreshing.”
