The Wallace
State Bank


rupted confidence and good will
OF the public since opening
The Wallace State Bank for
business in December, 1886, we
take great pleasure in announc-
ing our Thirtieth Anniversary
on Saturday, December 23, and
extend to the people OF Monte
Vista and Rio Grande County a
most cordial invitation to visit
and inspect our banking home
on that date.
A PIONEER INSTITUTION
In the fall OF 1886, over thir-
ty years ago, John Il. Wallace
and his brother, Robert B. Wall
lace, now deceased, came to
Monte Vista, taking up their
residence and the business of
banking. Monte Vista was then
IA town OF less than one hundred
people, with only one farm un-
der cultivation and with ante
lopes roaming wild over what
are now our highly cultivated
farms.
The excellent climate, ample
water supply and the promising
future OF this great Valley de-
termined these men to establish
IA bank. They opened for busi-
ness with cash capital of $1O,-
600, receiving in short time
thirty-eight accounts, aggregat-
ing less than $1,000 of deposits.
After two years OF business
the bank showed an actual op-
Grating loss and having less
than $4,000 in deposits. For
approximately twenty, years
Wallace Brothers conducted a
private banking institution, dur
ing which time they passed
through two very severe finan-
cial panics and faced many adj
verse and discouraging cOndi-
tions, maintaining first and al
ways the safety OF their bank
and the confidence of the com.
munity.
On June 3, 1911, Robert B.
Wallace passed away. His bro
ther, John T. Wallace, assumed
the presidency of the bank and
incorporated it under State laws,
continuing the business under
the same conservative methods
now proven sound by thirty
years of successful service.
ALWAYS READY TO ASSIST
A great deal of our remark
able success is due to the 10y
atty or our patrons who have
always favored us with their
good will, ns well as business.
we endeavor to show our appre-
ciation by extending to each

forts to further the prosperity
and progress of your community
In every possible way.
AS u matter OF interest to
those who have watched our
growth from the beginning and
for the benefit of those who are
new i'm this community, we will
show views of the town thirty
years ago and at various stages
OF Its growth to the present
time, together with many inter-
estinR facts connected with the
growth OF this bank, beginning
with u capital OF $4,000, now
100000, and the up-to-date
methods OF our present business
now showing resources over
100000.

tends to its patrons and the
residents of Monte Vista and
vicinity cordial invitation to
visit them on Saturday, Decem-
ber 23rd.
