Scope and content
Five year old Shirley, left, and seven year old Ida Mae Hughes make their regular deposit at Central Bank for their father's drugstore on April 20, 1938. Standing behind the girls is D.W. Stroud, 6th Ave. meat merchant and a director of the bank. The girls regularly do the banking for their father L.C. Hughes, who owns a drugstore at No. 26th & Alder. Their mother parks the car outside and waits for the girls as they make their deposit. The Hughes family resides at 2123 No. 26th. Mr. Stroud is the proud possessor of Deposit Book #1, he was the first person to open an account when the fledgling Central Bank opened on March 9, 1925. (T.Times, 4/20/1938, p. 11).
