First National Bank Pays Cash Divi dend of Fifty Per Cent, Beside Usual Seml-Annnal Dividends Has Done so Twice in Its History. At a meeting of the directors or the First atlonal Bank held Tuesday a cash dividend of 60 per cent was declared on 1 the capital stock or 1100,000 in addition to the regular semi-annual dividend of five per cent, both payable July first. This is the second time the stockholders of the First National have been paid fifty per cent on their stock, the same dividend having been declared and paid in 1905. when the capital stock of the bank was only $50,000 instead of" $100,000 as nowyFitty thousand dollars in cash will go to the stockholders tomorrow in addi tion to the $5,000 in regular divi dends. .The paying of this cash div idend at this time, when the bank is expending more than $150,000 on a new building, is evidence of unpre cedented prosperity -and superior management. The bank's surplus and undivided profits, remain amply large after both, deductions. - The officers of the bank modestly admit that the past six months has been the best period of the same length in the history of the institu tion by a very wide margin above any-similar period. ' In this connection it is interesting to learn that more than half of the office room invthe new seven-story building has already been spoken for and rented, without any solicita tion whatever, although the building Is not to be completed until Decem ber first or probably a little later. , ,. v i '. - This "happened In - Oklahoma. While riding past a farm house the attention of the village cut-up was attracted by a rooster- crossing ' tne road.
