The citizens of Manchester and vicinity will be gratified to learn that on Saturday, June 30. a new bank will be opened in their town to be known as "The Union Savings Bank of Manchester."' That the village will be greatly beneütted by this enterprise is unquestioned. Heretofore the majority of the depositors in the present bank received no interest on their deposits; a few got 2 per cent, while a very f avored few got 4 per cent. This policy caused a great many people in and about Manchester to deposit their money in Tecumseh, Chelsea, Jackson and Ann Arbor and many sent their money to Detroit in order to get 4 pei cent. Now all this will be changed, as the new bank proposes to pay 4 pei cent on all time deposits beginning on the opening day. The stocK of the bank is owned bj the most influential and careful peopú who enjoy the confidence of the entire community, insuring for the management a conservativo policy based upon strict business principies guaranteeing safety and fair treatment to all. People living in and near Manchester are invited to show their friendship for and their aporeciation of the the new bank by making their deposits as large as possible on the opening day thereby reeeiving 4 per cent. interesi from the day they make their deposit
