People used to find it safe to keep their treasure and money in some secret or
unknown places．They tried various ways as they could think out．They buried treasure to stop other people from taking it．Then they made a map of where the treasure was or wrote down other clues that would help them or someone else to find it again．
In Britain a few years ago，a writer wrote about some treasure that he had buried．He put clues in the story to help readers find it．Thousands of people hunted for the
treasure．They dug holes all over Britain，hoping to find it．
One of the most popular adventure stories ever written in Robert Louis
Stephenson's"Treasure Island"，an exciting story about a young boy，Jim Hawkins，who is captured by pirates，and later find some buried treasure．
Then there is the true story about a man who had to travel overseas for a year．He did not trust banks，so he buried his life savings in a park．Then he went away．On his
return，he went straight to the park．But the park was no longer there．In its place，there was a huge building．
And then there was a woman who buried her savings，all in bank notes，in a waterproof bag．When she dug it up years later，there was nothing left．Worms and insects
had eaten the bag and everything in it．
And of course，these are stories about people who bury things and either forget
where they have buried them or lose the map．

banks are still the safest place to keep our savings and treasures．
