Second Section The character of a stranger ia judp ed by his manners and appearance. The prosperous personage bears the rar-inarks of success engraved within his appearance. This same method of classifying our fellow beings applies much more forcibly to cities, localities and nations. It is universally e* pressed by the streets, the Inhabitants and structures of any municipality, it Well Locateld. Regent, North Dakota, is one of those broad-chested smiling western ers, who meets you on your side of half-ways with one of those -welcom ing, heart to heart handshakes, and who proclaims you as one of its cit izens the minute your feet greet the depot platform. It is located upon the Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget Sound Railroad midway between New England and Mott. The former town being 18 miles northwest of this thriv ing Hettinger county city, while Mott is twelve miles east along the Mil waukee line. Regent is not yet five years old. Yet it is an agricultural city that hi^ developed without the ufsual boom of a new town, from a sod cabinet,to a city with men and firms of. uiiuai^t calibre as its heart. feubdj^iai Banking institutions. The Citizen*) State Bank is a stable financial,iljstitulon with «eo. E. Towle as pppsidbiii. aiMl, F. O Orth as vice president and R. Lrth as cashier. Meet those men and I can assure you that you will agree with me in the statement that the future of this insti tution can be nothing but one success staked upon the shoulders of another, making a hurricane proot' foundation for the thousand of other successes that are bound to come to this pros perous Hetting County banking house. T. J. Smith, president J.. P. Jones, vice president, and A. C. Cioldtrap. cashier, are responsible for the record breaking growth of the First State Hank of Regent. Those men have modeled out of the rought uncertainty of a new town an institution that, is worthy of the pride of a city ten times as large as Regent. The capital of this hank is $10,000 while the deposits mount to the $30,000 mark. With a capital of $i.0,000 and state, apt} county deposits the Regent State Hank is a secured bauking house that can assure the most conservative per son of a safe depository and a liberal rate of interest.

El lickson, cashier, is a courteous anu skillful business man who is always wiling to help the new-comer, and lend a hand in the boosting of Regent. Business Houses Active.
