OAKES NATIONAL ELECTS
OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

At the annual meeting Of stock
holders held in the directors room of
the Oakes National Bank January 18th
the following board of directors was
elected for the ensuing year: Chas.
S. Brown, ]. H. Denning, A. G. Ram
harter, p. R. Sherman and E. S. Van
Horn. The directors elected officers as
follows: P. R. Sherman, president;
Chas. S. Brown, first vice president;
A. G. Ramharter, second vice president;
Hans Lee cashier and C. E. Roney as
sistant cashier.
As Mr.. Sherman is not very we'll
known in Oakes and vicinity, the
board takes pleasure in stating that he
is the son of Richard P. Sherman, for
many years president of the First Ma
tional Bank of Tower City, N. u end
one of the pioneer bankers of the state.
He is a practical banker Of ten y 'ars
experience, and it is reported that dur
ing the 1907 panic he was the youngest
bank president in North Dakota, being
at that time in charge of the SUITS
man County Bank at Courtenay, now
the largest bank in Stutsman county
outside of the jamestown banks. His
past record as a banker is TIC basis
upon which he was reelected president
Of the Oakes National Bank.
Mr.. Chas. S. Brown is too we'll and
favorably known to require any intro
duction, but his election to the office
Of director and vice president CT the
Oakes National Bank is sufficient evi-
dence of the esteem in which he is
held by his business associates and
friends. The past year has Eeen the
best in the history of the Institution
and the directors take pleasure ir
thanking the good people of Oakes and
vicinity for their liberal patronage and
assure them that the same care and
efficient service will be maintained
combined with a policy of liberali:,
toward all not inconsistent with ab
solute safety.

LIBRARY TEAS.

A Library Tea was given at the
home of Mrs. ]. w. Bush on Saturday
Jan. 3. Also one at Mrs. McCulley's
Thursday, Jan. 8. Three dollars and
twenty-five cents was the amour,
taken in for the library fund. The
attendance was small but each lady
presett seemed pleased and interested
with this idea.
1t is hoped that each one receiving
an invitation to these teas will under
stand that they are espe tally invited
whether or not they are a patron Of
the public library. The idea is to brinl
the women of the town together for :
social time and interest each in thi.
library.

The Oakes Times was chosen one Of
the official papers of the county by

lican. The Times received all five
votes, while the Leader and Republi.
can each received three votes and the
Glendale Record and Monango Journal
each received two votes. The Times
is thankful to the board for the recog.
nition and will try and give good ser
vice to the county as it has in the past

FIRST NATIONAL WOULD
JOIN REGIONAL BANK

The First National Bank of Oakes
made application on the 18th instant,
under the federal reserve act to be-
come a member of whatever regional
national bank is chosen for this dis
trict. This is in conformity with the
currency act recently passed by con-
gress.
The First National is always to the
front for anything to better it's SER
vice. Its officers are old-timers of the
county. Thomas F. Marshall, the
president, and H. c. Mccartney, the
vice president, have been connected
with the institution now for twenty
five years. They came here when Oakes
was barely on the map, and have al
ways taken leading part in every
thing tending to the upbuilding and
prosperity of this section. They have
been here in the good times as we'll as
the bad times, and through it all have
tried to serve the patrons in any way
that would not impair the stability OF
the institution.
The year just closed has shown an
increase in business. The same officers
were re-elctd this year as formerly
The only addition was the election OF
H. F. Brown as assistant cashier. Mr.
Brown has been with the bank the past
year, and has proven himself worthy
