We shun large. risky loans to any one person, lirrn or corporation. This, we foresee., will do much more toward the upbuilding of our country and thereby repay those people who repose so much contidence in our institution and patronize it so largely. Conservatism must attend our every ' act and doing. We propose \ distributing1 our loans with iew to safety tirst, then to uniform development of our section.
