lidf County Unit w oc he CEarlsbaft (Enrmtt SEVENTEENTH YEAR CARLSBAD NEW MEXICO. FRIDAY NOV.. 20. I OOH NUMBER I I' 1 CHANGE AT NATIONAL Meaart. Houaer and Armstrong SaJI Their Stock and Withdraw. A SUBSTANTIAL INSTITUTION A Brief Resume of its Past Showi it to be a Credit to the Town The New Men Well Known, Reliable Business Men Hearing there had been a change in the ownership of the National Hank of Carlsbad, the officials were interviewed by this paper yesterday. II. A. Houser, president, and R. B. Armstrong, cashier, have sold their entire stock in the bank to C. II. McLenathen, C. M. Rich ards and Elliott Hendricks. Mr. Armstrong has resigned to seek less confining work and Mr. Houser to return to Illinois, their resignations to take effect January 1st, liXri. at which time Mr. McLenathen will be presi dent and Mr. Richards cashier of the bank. The new men are both old friends of the Cl'RRENT and it is fortunate if there is to be a change that the officers are to be local men, fully acquainted with the peoph here and with the ways of this country, so there will be no change in the policy of the bank such as there would undoubtedly be if strangers came in. Mr. Mc Ienathen has done as much as any man in Carlsbad, in the twenty years he has lived here, to help build up the country, has made a business success, and is eipjiped in" every way for the H)sition of president of the bank. Mr. Morgan Livings ton is to remain as vice-president. Mr. Livingston is the largest individual owner of cat tle in this section and, it is un derstood is the largest owner of stock in the bank, and all know he is to stay. Mr. Richard" came here from l Muía, III., nve years ago, wrier ne was cashier of the First National Bank of that place for many years. He went into the lumber business here and organized the Richards Lumber Co. "Bob," as he is known here, is a good mixer, has had five years among the people here and with his long experience in the banking business will be the very man to make the bank grow, as its cashier. Elliott Hendricks. Dr. F. F. Doepp and J. O. Cameron are the remaining directors who help in the management of the banks' business. Mr. Armstrong will remain here, but Mr. Houser will return to Illinois after seven years in the bank. He came here to take advantage of the climate and pronounces it the t'nest in the world. When he went into the S. T Bitting Bank as its cashier, it was only start ing. He re-organized it as the National Bank of Carlsbad, in It ).'. and has seen the bank grow to four times its size then. Mr. Armstrong, as cashier, and Mr. Houser as president took hold when Mr. Bitting retired and the bank had grown till to day it makes the strongest state ment it has ever made, and is proud of the fact that it went' thru the recent panic, without1 ever having had to sue a man on ! charge oil a loss. It also took1 care of all of its customers with out borrowing any money or sel ling any of its loans, due to its policy of big reserve even at a sacrifice of big profits, which is the best safeguard to depositors. The new managers have the best wishes of all for future success, Recipe for Pumpkin Pie. First get your pumpkin. Then kill it and skin it. Cut pumpkin into small hunks with an axe. Boil the hunks. Boil them some more. Continue to boil hunks until they become a mucky gob. Unless you produce a mucky gob the pie will be lumpy. And fresh picked eggs to common cows milk. Beat the eggs. They may be hard to beat, but beat them. Use a carpet lieater if necessary. Now pinch the wilt and add the pinch. Add a dash of cinnamon, add a few nutmegs (whole) these will give the pie that rich nutty flavor so much desired. Add three-1 fouiths cup of molasses. Do1 not add mustard -this is not a' mutard plaster, it is a pie. Now add this mixture to the mucky I gob. Sur until thoroughly dis solved. I-et stand while you give your pie pans a coat of crust Then pour the mixture into the pie pans until they slop over. Place in a hot oven. When you can't stick a fork into the pies they are done. Re move the pies from the oven and place on the back piazza to oil. If the dog likes them they're all right.- Foolish Almanak. Corner Stone Laying.
