ASKOV
Bank to Come Soon.

The legal steps for moving the Sc
curity State Bank from Sandstone to
Askov are progressing according to
schedule; court order has now been
issued authorizing the sale of the
building and the legal papers for this
are being drawn this week. After
that there has to be one more publ
cation of notice of the removal, after
which the move can legally be made.
This final publication is scheduled
for July 2, thus it is quite possible
that the institution will open here
July 6.
