MRS. JBNNINGS had been just managing to
keep her fancily going. But things were look-
ing brighter at last. Now with the children.
able to help with the housework, she had
applied for the post of school teacher .. .
and had been accepted.
But that meant she needed suitable clothes
and clothes cost money.
She took her problem to the manager of
her bank. On the strength ofher ability and
character, he arranged a loan of $80. And so
it was that she was able to take the position
and greet her first dass proudly. She paid
off the loan after six months at a cost in
interest of only $2.40.
This is a true story. Only the name has
been altered. It -is typical of hundreds of
human dramas in which the bank manager
has been privileged to play a helping role.
War's requirements have increased immensely the work of
banks and bank staffs. At the same time more than one-third
of our experienced men have enlisted. Bank early. Pay small
bills by cash. It helps.
