between the various types

Airplane Found Essential
"It has been clearly determined
that for the purpose of increasing
the effective range and Increasing
the accuracy of fire of major-caliber
guns that the airplane is essen
tial to combat ships. Thus the
airplane has become a part of the
long-range fire-control system and
is as much so as the directorscope
or the range finder and their per
sonnel. As such, without consider
ing their other uses, airplanes must
be on ships of the fleet. This alone
Justifies and require, that the per

such fleet aircraft should be in and

service. .

Messrs. T. G, Hendricks and S. B. Eakin opened the
doors of the Bank for the first time on December 16, 1883.
These gentlemen were highly respected and trusted by
their fellow citizens. The start which they so humbly .
made has served as the foundation for our present insti
tution,' . f i
. j: ' , ,
($On February 27, 1886 the bank was nationalized, tak
ing the name of The First National Bank of Eugene, Ore.,
and has been uncler practically the same management ever
since; in fact it was in that year that Mr. P. E. Snodgrass,
.now president, first became associated with the institu
tion. CjJNo phenomenal success is claimed by the Bank, but
only a steady growth with the Community it has now
served for forty-two years. Our success has been due to
the prosperity of this community and to the faith and. con
fidence which it has seen fit to repose in the Bank.
The recent enlargement of the Bank's quarters is an in
dication" of our faith in the continued growth and pro
sperity of Eugene. Our aim now, as it was in 1 883, is to
grow with the community by carefully preserving our
reputation for upright and conservative principles of
banking. ;

IflThe Public is cordially invited to join with us in the
celebration of our Forty-Second 'Anniversary which will
be held at the Bank from two till nine o'clock Saturday,
December 19. We hope that new acquaintances may. be
made and old ones renewed. ,'
