We figure it’s time somebody asked
what vou want in banking.
For longer than we can remember,
banks have offered silverware and
china for your business. They’ve
guessed at just why you choose a bank.
And some have preferred to dazzle
you with numbers, rather than strive
to learn your preferences.
So, after 67 years of listening, we’re

Many of us are at different
times picnickers, campers,
hikers, fishermen or hunters and
we can unintentionally start fires
with our cooking fires, camping
fires or warming fires. It is a
very good practice to be*very,
very careful where and when we
start a campfire. If you are un
sure, do not start a fire. We have
seen that incendiaries, the
deliberate setting of a fire on the
property of others without per
mission, is a leading cause of
wildfires. To help counteract this
we can report promptly any
incident of suspected in
cendiarism to police or forest
officials.
You surely will remember
Smokey Bear and what he stands
for. Smokey has a very simple
message, perhaps it is so simple
that we do not heed the warning.
However, if we want to utilize our
beautiful, natural resources, we
must learn to take care of them,
use them sparingly and protect
them, and be extra careful with
fires. Remember, only YOU can
prevent forest fires!
