But He might have known we
couldn't be satisfied with it.
Judging by the actions of
birds and chickens and other
close-to-nature animals, we have

But do we do it? Not on your

AS announced in last week

whereby E. M. Ehrhardt, presi
dent; w. L. Brown, vice-presi
dent, and Fred N. Shepherd
cashier, of the Empire Nationa
Bank of Lewiston, together will
Cottonwood associates, acquired
a substantial interest in the Ger
man State Bank. The transac
ton is, in fact, one of friendly
cooperation between the owners
of the German State Bank anC
the proposed new Cottonwood
State Bank, articles of incorpor-
alton for which were recently
filed. 1t means a consolida-
ton of the interests repre-
senting the two institutions, and
gives Cottonwood what is, town
and community considered, one
of the strongest banking organ
izations in the state of Idaho.
At a special meeting of the di-
rectors held yesterday the princi-
pal details of the reorganization
were worked out resulting in the
election of E. M. Ehrhardt,
president; Maynard M. Belknap,
vice-president and Helmuth c..
Matthiesen, cashier. The i'm
mediate management of t h e
bank will be in the hands of Mr..
BelknaH, who has been the cash
Ter of the bank since it's organi-
cation, assisted by Mr.. Matthie-
sen who was, for a number of
years, assistant cashier of the
First National Bank.
The stockholders of the en-
larged organization are as follows:
Herman Won Bargen, H. j.
Barth, Barney Luchtefeld, E. M.
Ehrhardt, Jacob Mathiesen,
Walter L. Brown, Herman H.
Nuxoll, August Won Bargen,
Fred N. Shepherd, J. B. Fors-

Herman Vessels, John J. Schni-
der, Peter Klapprich, Helmuth
C. Matthiesen, Jacob Lorentz,
Reinhart Oesau, John Baer,
William Lies, Joseph Arnzen,
Maynard M. Belknap.
A meeting of the stockholders
has been called to vote upon the
proposition of increasing the
number of directors and as soon
as this meeting is held full list
of the new directorate will be
published.
The present organization Of
the German State Bank not only
stands for the conservatism and
solidity for which it has been
known since its organization in
1907, but the large farming,
livestock and banking interests
coming into the German State at
this time strengthens and broad
ems the scope of the old organi-
cation giving it a standing and
prestige in which Camas prairie
and the people of Cottonwood
take great pride.
1t shall be the policy of the
bank to cater to the interests
and upbuilding of this commun-
ity in the belief that one of the
best ways to build the town and
surrounding country is by giving
it good banking service.
