A. Hast is making a great many
changes in the appearance of his
store the past few days, arrang

officers were elected as follows;
C. C. Parmele, president; Fred
Nutzman, vice president, and W.
O. Doedeker, cashier. The busi
ness for the past year has been
most successful iu every par
ticular; $2,000 was added to the
surplus fund, making 5.000.
which, with the capital of ?10,
000. makes a pretty strong bank
ing house for Murray. Only a few
years ago the capital of the Mur
ray bank was only $5,000. with a

Tloedckcr. Murray can sure boast
of one of the strongest and most
ably conducted banks of any town
much larger than Murray in the
state of Nebraska.
