INCREASE CAPITAL

The stockholders and directors Of
the Summit Bank held a special
meeting Wednesday morning and
voted to increase their capital
stock from $40, 900 to SIS, 900.
This action was made necessary by
the state law which requires banks
carrying over a certain amount in
deposits to correspondingly increase
their capital stock The increase Of
deposits in the Summit Bank has
been so large that it could no long
er do business with the $40, 600
capital stock, hence the increase.
