Standing Become Identified
with Grangeville Institution

ident and Wetherbee Cashier

Entire stock holdings of Frank w.
Kettenbach, of Lewiston, and his son,
Alfred d. Kettenbach, In the Bank of
Camas Prairie, pioneer Grangeville
banking house, have been purchased by
Idaho county residents of high finan-
cial standing. Il. w. Kettenbach, who
was active In organization OF the bank
in 1892, and who ever since has been
president, retires from all connection
with the bank, as does his son, Alfred
ID. Kettenbach, who has been one OF
the vice presidents.
Annual meeting of the stockholders
of the bank was held March 3, when
the board of directors for the current
year was elected. Directors are
Frank McGrane, r. #. Fulton, A. #.
Parker, Henry Meyer, A. L. Gilkeson,
Milton Freidenrich and w. w. Brown.
The regular monthly meeting of the
board of directors was held immedi-
ately upon adjournment of the stock
holders meeting, and the following
officers were chosen for the year:
President-W. w. Brown.
Vice president-F'rank McGrane.
Cashier-A. II. Wetherbee.
Assistant cashier = Mrs. II. M.
Haynes.
The change in officers became neces-
sary because of the acquisition OF all
the Kettenbach stock by local people.
The new stockholders are well-known
citizens of high standing and financial
strength, and will doubtless add to
the prestige and popularity of the
bank.

NATIONAL-"The Ten
Commandments"

THE Ten Commandments" Cecil B.
De Miles magnificent screen drama,
started its second week to a capacity
house at the New National Theater
last night.
The first part of the production,
portraying the brilliancy of Egypt
and the bondage of the IsraeIites: the
flight, led by Moses, out of Egypt
through the parting Of the waves, and
the further wanderings Of the chosen
tribe, is as fine a spectacle and as
dramatically directed as any photo
play ever screened. Many OF the
scenes, beautifully colored, add to
the effectiveness of the screen drama.
The latter part of the picture is a
modern morality drama better than
the average run.
If one criticism can be made of the
picture. it is that the Biblical part is
too short. The acting and scenery is
so superlative that the audience is
obviously disappointed when 1T gives
way to the modern story.

her before on account Of the high
tariff imposed when she was one of
the big stars of the theatrical world.
John Cotton. co-author OF RAIN" has
furnished Mrs. Carter with a stirring
little drama concerning the Russian
revolution and in 1t the actress held
the audience spellbound for 80 min
utes. The story concerns two women
of noble birth who try to get out
of the Russian country. The work
of Alike in outwitting the villain
furnishes the dramatic action and
thrilling scenes of the playlet. Mrs.
Carter retains her wonderful dra-
matte fire of a decade ago, and the
carrying power of her convincing
voice is still there. Many curtain
calls demonstrated the pleasure of
the audience.
With the dramatic out of the way,
Miss Venita Gould and Frank Fay
furnished the greater number of
laughs and original fun. Miss Gould
