ENDNELD LADIES' TAILOR 324 Lackawanna Avenue Scranton, Pa. woven with the organization and development of the First National Bank of Seranton that a history of the one would not be complete without a record of the phenomenal success of the other.

Three years before Scranton became a city, the First National Bank was granted its first Charter. Compared with what they are today, both bank and city were then of but diminutive dimensions. In 1860 the Borough of Scranton had lees than ten thoussnd inhabit a'nts, and when the First National Bank began buainess in 1863 a room 171 by 50 feet was large enough to accommodate its customers and its one em ployee, the cashier. Today Scranton is one of the widest known most prosperous and progressive cities in the country, and the First National Bank of Scranton 4s one of tho most substantial financial institutions in the United State. Hew this bank has acquired its envisble reputation and prominent' position will be told in this space from day to day in such a way that the, people of the valley will know as much about its business methods as the, men who have taken part in its management.

Believing that confidence begets confidence, and that the people appro ciate the value of character and conservatism on the part of an institu tion that handles their money, we will endeavor to demonstrate by straightforward statement of facts that thia bank merits the approval of the publio because of its record and experience and its careful regard for the rights and interests of its patrons, whether their accounta are large or small. The First National of Scranton has no branches is not connected with any other National Bank in this Valley. Doing business on the same spot for forty seven years. Is absolutely an independent National Bank operating under National Charter issued by U. S.
