Therecordes a time, in the life of almost every man, when through loss of employment or some other reverse, he is re- duced to the necessity of draw- ing upon his reserve fund, or failing such a fund, of an ap- peal to friends. A natural desire for inde- pendence should prompt the acquisition of a Savings Ac- count, as a means of providing against the uncertainties of life.
