The Caldwell Bank Makes
SPLENDID Showing.

The annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Caldwell
Bank of Columbia, La, was held
at the Office of the bank on last
Saturday. the 18th instant. The
same board of directors and off,
GERS were reelected for the en-
suing wear, being as follows: H.
G.. Ranks, !. R. Brown. A. D.
Rri1per, G.. E, Siagle, C. A.
Tray]or, NJ. FARRELL, W. E. Cod
frey. R. r. Redditt, J. A. Mere
dith. J, W. Vincent and DR.. S.
H. Brown as directors, with H.
C. Blanks. President: J. R.
Brown. Vice-President and A. D.
Brjdger, Cashier.
A dividend of 20 per cent was
declared out of a net earning for
the past wear, which was over IS
per cent, the remaining earnings
being left as undivided profits.
This is an especially good show
ing for a banking institution, and

management of the bank. Since
this bank was organized in 1902,
with a capital stock of SIS, 1000,
dividends aggregating 125 per
