WHITE'S ICE CREAM

The stability, resource and financial integrityof a nat ional bank are known, respected, andrelied upon throughout the country.

The convenience, friendliness and closeness of

interest make a community bank t he idealinstitution with which to do business.

In joining these two advantages-in choosingofficers and directors from representative c i t i ~zens, we feel that we have provided unusualbanking facilities.

And a s teady, r ap id growth in deposits is th ebest proof of stability.

Even the redoubtable Caesar, whose imperious demands for new danities kept thechubby knees of his chef a-trembling, wouldhave subsided into ecsta tic calm could hehave tasted White's Ice Cream!

It has been frequent ly statedthat the ivy seldom, if ever, flowers because the f lowering form isso rare. However, there are con(litions under whi ch i t is alwayscertain to send out blossoms. Anivy does not bloom when in theprocess of climbing a wall or atower, but when i t ,has reached thesummit a nd c an no longer climbit sends out horizontal branches.

In time these branches may ceaset o produce the f ee t b y which theivy climbs and changing i ts l ea fform somewhat sends out a tertllinal cluster of flowers.This condition has been met

apiJarently in an ivy growing ove ra rockery in a Narberth garden,where th e vine, spread out horizon ta lly in ful l sun ligh t, has produced two terminal clusters. Theflowers are greenish in color. starpointed, with five yellow stamens.The honey which the f lower sec re te s is very at tractive t o be esand for that reason they are

found hover ing ove r thi s lateblooming in great numbers. Theresult wiIl, undoubtedly, be theripening of the fruit, but whetherthe berries will be black or yeIlowremains t o be s een.The blossom on exh ib it at the
