FLEMING Stop Handing Out Cash You stop when the policeman waves his hand and you do not run on when you see the flash of a red signal. "Danger-careful,"you warn yourself. All the time you have just as dangerous a habit---carrying your money on your person or keeping it secreted at home. This is what keep the police busy-- money hidden at home or in your clothing. See To-Day's Papers For Proof. Thieves are easily discourged. Better play safe, and let a good, safe institution like our bank care for your money, while you meet your bills by check.
