ersen store for the past two years,
resigned his position the fore part OF

Work is progressing rapidly on tint
T. C. Mccarthy building just south
of the Review building. Charles
Christensen, who has the contract for
the building, has large force of men
on hand pushing the work as fast as
possible. The cement sub-fOundation
was laid the fore part of the week

Thursday or Friday. This will be
substantial brick business block and
one of the finest to be erected in the
city this spring.
The Naeve family are enjoying their
new Winton touring car, which ar
rived last week. The machine is one
of the prettiest in the city and is fit
ted out with the latest equipment, be-
ing lighted throughout by electricity,
and is provided with self starter,
which does away with the cranking
of the motor. The motor is six
cylinder one, rated at 4S horse power,
which is ample power for pulling the
car with it's seven passengers over
any of the hills in the locality at
good rate of speed.
The comment which should have
been made in the paper of last week
concerning the condition of the Craw-
ford County State bank as appeared
from the statement published at that
time, was mislaid and therefore the
omission. The bank statement was
worthy of commendatory notice, the
total footings reaching practically a
million dollars, with sufficient sur
plus of cash on hand to provide for all
emergencies. This bank has been
gradually expanding for many years,
until now it is one of the strong finan-
cial institutions of Iowa. 1t speaks
we'll for the management and the
economy practiced in conducting its
business affairs and shows that it is
conducted in such way that prac-
tically no losses have occurred on &C.
count of unfortunate loans. A bank
owes it to itself as we'll as to its de-
positors that credit should not be ex-
tended where there is the slightest
danger of loss. This point has gov
erned the bank in the past and we
have no doubt but such will be it's
policy in the future.
