IN THE
TOWNS
Where people make use of their
banks, -depositing their money
and paying bills by check, you will
find a progressive, "Get-there"
spirit which stands for the upbuilding
of that town and community.
This is our home and we take
an active interest in watching and

both town and surrounding country.
We would like to see every
man and woman, particularly
every farmer and every man
working for wages in this community,
start a bank account?it
would mean a better town, a better
market, a better county.
Will you join us in this work?
The amount of your first deposit
isn't so material as the fact of

We want to give our subscribers the
kind of reading matter they I
jnost enjoy. We have several cap- *
ital serial stories available, but they !
cost us from $15 to $25 each, and "
we don't care to in vest this sum unless
there is a demand for this class of ?
reading. De you want a rattling *
good story, a copyrighted novel that j;
in book form costs at least $1.00? \?
If you want it, drop us a postal, j"
Unless some considerable response
is received we don't feel warranted:'
in purchasing the high-priced story ;
we have in mind. 1;
To the thoughtful kindness of our ;

Camlin of Andrews, the editor and
I his family owe appreciative thanks ;
for a veritable "prize-box," filled
with the products of the formers'

butter. It is no mere hyperbole or
?mpty platitude to say that each
?]>ecimen was perfect of its kind.
Mr Camlin never tires descanting en
:he fertility of soil and perfection of c
dimate in that favored section, and
ill along we have maintained a e
'from Missouri" attitude. But wa }
tnow now that he "has the goods," 1
is the boys say, and we say in all ^
lincerity that no finer truck or vege- 8
cables can be produced in Florida or 8
iny where on earth than at Andrews, ^
