Waccamaw Reaches $100,000,000
Waccamaw Bank and Trust
Company's total mourns
passed the $100,000,000
mark on Friday, August 8,
I960. The exact amount
reached as of that date was
$100,922,597.43 - which is
twice the bank's resources of
$60,863,836 on July 30,
1946. Presently, with 29
offices in 21 communities lo
cated in eight North Carolina
counties, the Whiteville-baaed
banking system has enjoyed
an avenge growth rate of
almost 25% per annum during
the past 36 months.
"Certainly, we have made
no attempt to grow just for
growth's sake, but we do fed
that our reaching this land
mark in our history is indica
tive of the confidence that
our customers have placed in
us", stated L. R. Bowers,
president. Mr. Bowers also
indicated that he expected
the bank's growth to be con
tinued in a similar manner-in
order to meet the needs of its
customers in Eastern Caro
lina. The bank was begun on
Match 20, 1926 with capital
of $87 ,500.
L. R. Bowers, President, is very pleased as Phyllis Miller
advises him that $100,000,000 in total resources was surpassed
at Waccamaw Bank on August 8, 1969.

crop is more advanced than at
this time last year in the
Border and the Eastern Belts
and is practically the same as
a year ago in the Middle and
the Old Belts. The supply of
soil moisture on August 1
continued to be mostly ade
quate to surplus as was the

pounds and is about the same
as the 1968 crop of 563

Food, rest, mental peace
and exercise are the four
golden keys to old age. Why

Four-year-old Don seamed
afraid of the colie next doer;
but one day, in a spirit of
adventure, he climbed the
fence and went over to see
the animal. The dog, with tail
wagging, rushed to Don and,
by way of a friendly greeting,
licked his face. Don screamed
and the neighbor came run
ning out.
"Did he bite you, my
boy?"
"No." answered Don, "But
he tasted me."
