She Christmas fljagic of 

 High Grade .Securities 



HE Wise Men of today give Christmas presents 

 that do not fade from memory. A good security 

 is the most substantial of Christmas tokens. Its 

 value is perennial. It is like the magic purse of 



the fairy tale, in which a new coin appeared to take 



the place of every coin withdrawn. 



The maturing interest of a prime security serves as 

 a yearly reminder of the sensible, handsome generosity 

 of the giver. Some bonds are due in a few years; others 

 have many years to run. For example, there are 

 $1000 bonds which pay $50 interest each year for as 

 long as 50 years — a total of $2500 in addition to pay- 

 ment of the principal. What a gift for a member of 

 the family, for a friend, for a business associate. 



The National City Company can provide you with 

 securities of the highest character, ideal for Christmas 

 gifts, gathered carefully by experts from among the 

 world's best government, municipal, public utility, rail- 

 road, industrial, and realty issues. 



At any of our more than 50 correspondent offices 

 you can learn just what securities would best meet 

 the investment needs of the people you wish to 

 remember in this considerate and far-sighted manner.
