For Your Children's Education
Start a special Savings Account at once with the
Standard Bank, and keep adding small amounts to it
regularly, You will never ]Hiss the' money.
Then, when the child is old enough your deposits,
with the Compound Interest which we add quarterly,
will provide a fund large enough to give a thorough
education.
It's a good plan. Think it over.
