Citizens Banking and Trust
Company.
In another column will be found
the statement of the above well known
banking institution, which will speak
for itself. The temi-annual meeting
of tile board of directors was held yes
terday morning, and after going over
the affairs of the bank the board, in
stead of declaring a dividend, passed
up about four and a half per cent of
undivided profits to the surplus fund
This is a most creditable showing
and speaks well for the manner in
which the business of the bank has
been managed. This bank hue only
been in business about two years,
comparatively short time, and not
withstanding the panicky condition of
the financial world and the universal
lack of confidence on llio part of the
people in all banking institutions, it
has enjoyed a paying business from
the start and made a good interest on
the money invested. It is one of the
solid, substantial institutions of the
town, and under tho management of
such capable, clearheaded business
men as Vice-President Reid and
Cashier Culpepper will coutinue to
n-Asner. Head the statement else
where.

A statement of tho condition of the
Bank of Thomasville at the close of

ful perusal of the statement will show

promising condition. As was stated
in yesterday’s paper, the board of

dividend of three and a half per cent.
The Bank of Thomasville is all right.

range a game for the afternoon of the

we think an interesting game could
very easily be gotten up.
