Of course, we’re not all saving for the same things, and we all save different amounts each month, but the important thing is ... we all have the sav ing habit. “I’ve been saving at the South Carolina National Bank for years. First I saved up money for a down payment on a new home. Then I started putting money away to send my daughter to school. This saving fund also comes in handy for any emergencies that come up. “My wife saves something every week, too. She’s planning to buy some new furniture and redecorate our home. Now that South Carolina National is going to pay 2 1-2 per cent interest on her savings, she’ll be able to buy those things she wants just that much faster. “And my daughter ... what do you think she’s saving for? She wants a new bicycle. I guess I could afford to buy her one but I think it much more important that she get the savings habit early in life. And, that’s just what she has • * done. I don’t think she fully appreciates yet the fact that her money will earn 2 1-2 per cent interest at the South Carolina National, but she knows that it won’t be long before she’ll have that new bike. “If you’d like to see YOUR dreams come true, I recommend that you get the sayings habit, just as we have done. And believe me, there’s no better place to save than at South Carolina Nat ional Bank.” v DEPOSITS INSURED UP TO $10,000 PAYING 2*4 PER CENT INTEREST ON SAYINGS (Effective October 1, 1956) ’ • ' C" . ; : ' % The South Carolina National Bank ■» 1119 Boyce Street MEMBER FDIC Phones Nos. 1549 and 1550
