Tliat situation was remedied ! by   the  erection   of  a   uew  building, •far more commodious and efflcient in I its interior thau the structure which j was abandoned.     A few   years    ago Ithe bank opened a Tru.-.t Department land now acts as executor of estates, j guardian of minors and renders   ev- ! ery service  which  a  Trust Company jean   give.     This  necessitated  adding additional  employees   and     requires SI ill more space, and in order to keep up with the increased business,   the directors are considering the erection of a still larger banking house in the near future on the corner of   Main and Mauch Chunk streets, on the lot purchased trom Mrs. Clara A. Knapp. The capita! is now $125,000, sur¬ plus  and   profits   $2r,0,000,  and    de¬ posits over $3,000,000. The present officers are: :^. T. Swartz, President. John A. Miller, Vice-President. F. H.

dustries of Xazareth, and this vicin¬ ity, and also conclusively demon- .strates tha- the commercial policies of this bank are thoroughly sound.
Ever since the idea of the Xaza¬ reth Xational Bank took shape in the minds of its creators, even before tbere was a building, vaults, and other accessories of the business, Ihere has been but one ideal beliind j*—the vision of true community ser¬ vice. That this fundamental ideal has been recognized by the public is shown by the steady growth which has followed close adherence to a sound commercial policy. The fore¬ sight of the men who organized and have since conducted this bank has been proven by the expansion of the hank in after years. It grew with the town and helped the community to grow. Better credit facilities en¬ abled many new concerns to come to
