SUPERINTENDENT Of
STATE BANKS
Approves Condition of st. Henry
Institution, Authorized to DO
Business as State Bank,

on another page of this issue of THE
| DEMoCRAT will be found o legal notice
over the signature of II. T.. Baxter,
State superintendent of Banks, approv-
ing the condition of the ST. Henry
Bank, which last week became a State
institution. Heretofore IL was con-
ducted as private bank, but IL IS now
incorporated under the banking laws
OF Ohio with fully paid-in capital of
S25, 100000.
The new banking laws of Ohio re-
quire that no bank can be hereafter or
ganized or opened for business until
approved by the Superintendent Of
Banks, whose duty IL is to make an
examination as to the character, abili-
stock holders, and that the bank is to
be Legitimate and bonafide institu-
tion and not wildcat affair.
While not the oldest financial insti-
tuition in the county, the ST. Henry
Bank is conceded one of the most pro-
grossive and has become fully estab-
lished in the good graces of the people
of this county, and especially is this
true of the south part of Mercer and
the north part Of Darke.
It's business methods are such as to
commend IL freely TO the public, and
its growing business is ample evidence
that the people appreciate courteous
treatment and look upon II as a safe
and sound institution. IL gains addi-
tional strength and prestige by being
incorporated as a State bank. It equip
ment is of the best, having a modern
fire and burglar-proof vault, safe and
deposit boxes.
A number of new stockholders have
have been added, while the same capa-
BILE officers will continue at the helm,
who have the clination as well as the
ability to render the best possible
service. Its stock is held by RESPONSE
BILE and influential citizens of this coun-
ty. The bank consistently adheres to
the principles of liberal yet cOnserva-
tive business methods and safe man
agement, which places banking upon
a higher level and begets public conf
dence.
The banks location in the heart of
progressive and growing section is the
real foundation of its great success,
and there is every reason to believe
the prosperity and growth of the sur
rounding country will be reflected in
its business, to the great advantage of
all concerned.

WILL STICK
To First National, Which Makes
It Plain His Services Are
Much Appreciated.

The tender and acceptance of a posi-
tion of importance with the State Bu-
rsau of Public Accounting by ex- Aud
itor Weis. mention of which was made
by THE DEMOCRAT last week, has been
recalled by Mr.. Weis.
This came about by the determ-
ination of the officials of the First Ma
tional Bank TO retain his services AS
Assistant Cashier if it was possible to
do so. The bank officials well knew
a place in the Bureau of Accounting
was very attractive to the genial eX-
Auditor and meant an insight to pub
lie affair of no small moment, and it is
said he was asked to name the terms
on which he would be willing to re-
main IN the service of that institution,
surely nattering proposition and tes-
timonial to Mr.. Weis' worth.
Be that however as il may, the First
National retains the services of man
who has always given full measure in
whatever capacity he has been en-
ployed. And we congratulate Tom Weis
because he has always deserved the
honor that has come to him and the
confidence the people have in him.

their friends will be glad to hear of
their success in their new home.
