The attention OF the readers OF this
paper is called to the oficiaI statement
made by the Corder Bank. The statement
speaks for itself. 1t speaks more for the
bank than we could write in a column.
1t tells it's own story and tells it in a
manner that will attract the attention of
every banker and bank patron who reads
it. 1t is one of the strongest statements
ever made by a Lafayette county institu-
ton and shows that the bank enjoys a
patronage and confidence that is ~enviable.
The statement shows the bank to be as
solid as a gold dollar. The president and
cashier, Messrs. G. A. F~rerking and VIM.
Groves, are experienced bankers and enjoy
the confidence OF the bank patrons, as the
statement will bear abundant testimony.

remarkably good statement. 1t shows
that the wave of adversely has o struck

in the most artistic manner. There are
many special features connected with the
performance, and they are all first class.
Lexington has been favored with q mum
high-class entertainments at the New
Grand, but we venture the assertion that
the Andrews Opera Company will prove
the equal, IL not the superior, OF any of
them. To fully appreciate it you must
see it. There will also be a matinee at 2
O'Clock in the afternoon.
