The
Broken Bank
Only a child's saving bank-toy-and how little he realizes what it might mean for him in later life; how it might be used to accumulate a fund for a Manufacturers Life Endowment Policy, which at maturity would provide for a college education or a start in business. Do not let the Bank be broken to satisfy passing fancies, but rather train your child to have a definite purpose in saving an objective in life.

The financial crisis is somewhat relaxed as the Government has announced that the banknotes of the Central Bank are redeemable at face value. The Head Office' and all the branches of the Bank to remain have been instructed open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. so that holders can cash their notes if they so desire, and to continue business even on Sunday.
