You may sav we are prejudiced, since our associa tion is Newberry’s largest and oldest savings institu tion. Our association received Federal Charter No. 860, one of the first, in 1935. We are not saying that a long history is everything in the savings and loan business, but when you have assets in excess of 30 Million Dollars and Reserves in excess of 2 and a half Million Dollars, you have to give good service to get there. Therefore, when we want to get something done we have 34 years to instruct us. And, we have old, old friends all over Newberry and surrounding counties to help us. You can’t buy that. When you wish to save or borrow money let us show you what we mean. Where you save does make a difference.
