    Every time you put a little money in your savings
account, you take a little money out of circulation, and
do a little bit to cool inflation.
And if you do this regularly, you’ll be taking a strong
individual shot at our number one enemy.
Because Commonwealth National supports the
president’s war against inflation, we want to remind
you of some of the other things he’s asked us all to do:
• Use credit wisely.
• Shop wisely; be a bargain hunter.
• Be a do-it-yourselfer.
Commonwealth ik
National Bank
Happy to help you WIN in south central Pennsylvania.
IT USED
TO BE JUST
A PASSBOOK.
MOUNT'S
AN INFLATION
FIGHTER.
• Look at our food budgets carefully, and if we can’t
cut them—some of us can’t —he asks that we try to
cut the food we waste by five percent.
•He asks that we cut the miles we drive ... car pool
and walk more.
• And that we heat less as well as drive less.
• He also asks that we all wear the WIN button.
Enlist in the war on inflation, get your WIN button
today at any Commonwealth National office. They’re
free. And you don’t have to be a Commonwealth
customer to get one.
