THE MORRIS PLAN
Here is a Bank
for Everyone!
This Bank is not limited to any one class of people. The services of the Morris Plan Bank are broad enough to appeal to and be used by all. Lawyers, clerks, doctors, city employees, railroad men, stenographers, bank officers, laborers, corporation executives, teachers and housekeepers use this Bank con- stantly as well as many business men, firms and corporations, both large and small.
We Pay 5% on Savings
The Morris Plan is not a poor man's bank- not a rich man's bank; it is not a small-loan bank-not a large-loan bank. It is a com- bination of both. It is a bank for the indi- vidual of all kinds-a bank for the business man and corporation-serving their needs whether they involve $200 or $5,000.00.
You can repay loans here in easy install- ments over a period of twelve months. And another feature. We pay 5% on savings, and no investor has ever lost a cent in a Morris Plan Bank.

There is an Easy Way to Pay ---
Taxes Insurance Premiums For Furniture On Your Home For Securities Accounts
It is frequently difficult to pay an amount in one lump sum. Investigate our plan for making loans which can be repaid in easy weekly, semi-monthly, or monthly payments over a period of twelve months.
Save Where You Can Borrow
We offer 5% interest, compounded quar- terly, on savings accounts here where you will be building up a surplus and at the same time you will be building up your credit.
