First National Bank. held last week
some changes were made in the Off |
GERS of this institution, which were |
made necessary by the retirement of

pretty well understood for some time

from the bank early in the year. he

gained at Elko, New, with a capt.
tai stock of $4,000, and of which
bank Mr.. Eichelberger becomes the
cashier The new bank expects to
open for business about the first of
March, and has every promise of a
most successful career. Elko is
town of some 1000 inhabitants and
Is located In the center of wide and
very wealthy stock country, and bids

nence. ~
The departure of Mr. Eichelber-
ger will be exceedingly regretted
among the business circles of Je-
rome, and the residents of the tract
as we'll. He came here with his fam
lily in the spring of 1903, taking the
position as cashier of the Jerome
State Bank, which he held until its
consolidation with the First National
Bank. Always alert to the best in
terests of the North Side tract and
Jerome in particular, Mr. Eichel.
