"The Sun Symbol" 
 
 Painted by W. E. Rollins 
 
 '' I ^ HIS represents a Zuni Indian about to carve his 
 ■^ conception of the Sun upon a rock. The Indian and 
 his ubiquitous bowl, being the physical features of the 
 picture, are brought out in vivid color. The Sun Symbol 
 is in softer pastel colors, representing the thought of the 
 Indian. 
 
 The central circle of the Sun Symbol is the Cosmos, 
 in which is shown a face, as the Indian conceives it. As 
 an Indian stands upon an eminence and looks about him, 
 everything comprised within the circle of his vision, or 
 imagination, is his idea of the Cosmos. 
 
 The outer edge of the circle of the Cosmos is bordered 
 by points, representing clouds. 
 
 Outside of the clouds is the circle of the Sun, from 
 which rays are sent out in every direction, and from which 
 also spring the lightning, represented by forked tongues 
 capped by arrow heads to symbolize swiftness. 
 
 The arms of the Swastika also appear on the edge of 
 the Sun, symbolizing the unchanging eternal evolution of 
 life. 
 
 The two serpent figures are symbollic of wisdom and 
 kno\vledge. 
 
 The original painting of "The Sun Symbol" hangs in the 
 Main Dining Room of The Bishop's Lodge, at Santa Fe.

SU N, Silence and Adobe — that is New Mexico in 
 three words. If a fourth were added, it would be 
 only to clinch the three. It is the great American 
 Mystery — the National Rip Van Winkle — the United States 
 which is NOT United States. 
 
 New Mexico is the anomaly of the Republic. It is a 
 century older in European civilization than the rest, and 
 several centuries older still in a happier semi-civilization of 
 its own. 
 
 It had its walled cities of stone before Columbus had 
 grand parents-to-be ; and it has them yet. The most incred- 
 ible pioneering the world has ever seen, overran it with the 
 zeal of a prairie fire nearly four hundred years ago. The 
 most superhuman marches, the most awful privations, 
 the most devoted heroism, the most unsleeping vigilance 
 wrested this bare brown land to the world, and having 
 wrested it, went to sleep. The winning was the wakefuU- 
 est in history — the after nap eternal. It has never awakened 
 — one does not know that it ever can. Nature herself does 
 little but sleep here. 
 
 The abrupt mountains, the echoing, rock-walled canons 
 the sunburnt mesas, the streams bankrupt by their own 
 Shylock sands, the gaunt, brown, treeless plains, the ardent 
 
 11 J 
 
sky, all harmonize with unearthly unanimity. It is a 
 picture, a romance, a dream, all in one. 
 
 It is our one corner that is the sun's very own. Here 
 he has had his way, and no discrepancy mars his work. 
 
 It is a land of quaint, swart faces, of oriental dress and 
 unspelled speech; a land where distance is lost, and the 
 eye is a liar; a land of ineffable lights and sudden shadows 
 — the heart of Africa beating against the ribs of the Rockies. 
 
 There are almost no waterfalls and not a river worthy 
 of the name. The mountains are largely miles of savage 
 skyward rock; and forests are far between. But every 
 landscape is characteristic and beautiful — with a weird, 
 unearthly beauty, treacherous as the flowers of its cacti. 
 
 Most of New Mexico, most of the year, is an inde- 
 scribable harmony in browns and grays, over which the 
 enchanted lights of its unique torquoise blue skies cast an 
 eternal spell. 
 
 Its very rocks are unique — astounding freaks of form 
 and color, carved by the scant rains and more liberal winds 
 of immemorial centuries and towering across the bare land 
 like milestones of forgotten giants. 
 
 — Charles F. Lummis, "The Land of Poco Tiempo."

The City of Santa Fe is the oldest capital in the 
 United States and is thought to have been settled about the 
 year 1540 by the Spanish Explorer, Don Antonio de Espejo. 
 It was made the capital of New Spain in 1605. Its original 
 and full name was Ciudad Real de la Santa Fe de San 
 Francisco. It is the oldest city in America, with the excep- 
 tion of Saint Augustine, Florida. 
 
 The city lies in a fertile, sheltered valley, almost in 
 the heart of the wooded Sangre de Christo range of the 
 Rockies. Blessed by nature, hallowed by romance, the 
 centre of a region of the greatest archaeological interest, it 
 is the most picturesque and romantic city in the United 
 States. 
 
 The Plaza is located in the center of the city, at the 
 end of the old Santa Fe trail and long before the advent of 
 the railways it was the longed for vision of many a weary 
 traveler over the Great Overland Trail. It was the camp- 
 ing ground of the intrepid Don Juan de Onante, in 1605. 
 Here General Kearney hoisted the Stars and Stripes of the 
 American Government in 1846. It contains a monument 
 to the soldiers who fell in the Civil War and in the Indian 
 ^va^s; also a drinking fountain erected as a memorial to the 
 late Archbishop Lamy, the first Roman Catholic Bishop and 
 Archbishop of Santa Fe. 
 
 The city is distinctly Spanish in its appearance and 
 atmosphere. The Spanish speaking descendants of the 
 early conquerers live as did their ancestors, in small villages, 
 
 [15] 
 
clustered about their quaint but beautiful old churches, 
 established by the devoted Friars and Padres of the six- 
 teenth century. 
 
 Many of the houses are of adobe and of stone, just as 
 they were built centuries ago and the Spanish-Indian 
 architecture presents a distinct type of beauty and charm 
 so remote and strange, that the visitor may well imagine 
 himself in a foreign land. 
 
 Facing the quaint old Plaza is the Palace of the Gov- 
 ernors, a low, spreading adobe structure, erected in the 
 seventeenth century. It was occupied continuously by the 
 Spanish, Mexican and American Governors until 1909. It 
 was in this building that Governor Lew ^Vallace wrote the 
 concluding chapters of his book, Ben Hur. It is now occu- 
 pied by the Museum of the American Archaeological Society, 
 and it contains some of the most precious and rare speci- 
 mens of pre-historic art in the world. 
 
 The beautiful New Museum of New Mexico also faces 
 the Plaza. It was finished and opened to the public in 1917. 
 Its architecture is said to be the finest example of true 
 American architecture in the United States. On its walls 
 are exhibited some of the finest works of the many noted 
 American artists comprising the Santa Fe Artist Colony. 
 
 The old church of San Miguel erected in 1640 and also 
 that of Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe, erected originally in 
 1627, both of which contain many old paintings and wood 
 carvings, are of great interest.

The Bishop's Lodge is the former little ranch of the 
 late Archbishop Lamy, one of the many beloved and faith- 
 ful priests who devoted their lives to the education and 
 uplift of the native people of New Mexico. His quaint old 
 private devotional chapel, located on the ranch, still stands 
 and has been recently restored. It will be preserved as 
 one of the many interesting landmarks of this section. The 
 Bishop's Lodge is named in honor of this illustrious place. 
 
 The Lodge is situated in the very heart of the most 
 interesting fifty-mile circle of America, about three and 
 one-half miles north of the city of Santa Fe, and well up in 
 the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo range of the Rockies. 
 
 The scenery about the Lodge is beautiful. On all sides 
 the wonderful mountain ranges rise in their majesty to 
 dizzy heights, clothed in their marvelous shades of blue — 
 so destinctly New Mexican. 
 
 To the south, beyond the city, lies the Sandia range, in 
 which are located the famous Tiffany turquoise mines. 
 
 To the east lies the Sangre de Cristo range whose 
 majestic crests, Baldy and Lake Peak, snow clad most of 
 the year, rise to an altitude of 13,000 feet. 
 
 To the west and north the dark masses of the Jemez 
 range tower to the clouds, above the Rio Grande, and con- 
 tain those wonderful pre-historic, enigmatic cliff dwellings 
 and buried cities, so interesting to the visitor. Below the 
 
 [21] 
 
\ 
 
 % 
 
 \ 
 
 
Lodge and between it and the Rio Grande, lies the silent 
 mysterious desert, stretching out for miles; brilliant in the 
 wonderful sunshine and marvelous in its ever changing 
 colors, lights and shadows — of unending wonder and 
 interest to the resident as well as to the visitor. 
 
 The Lodge is modern and up to date in every respect 
 and offers all of the comforts and conveniences of the leading 
 metropolitan hotels, yet it possesses none of the atmosphere 
 of a hotel. On the contrary it is most homelike. It is 
 essentially a place of recreation, relaxation and rest, a place 
 where one may take things easy and enjoy the pleasure, 
 wonders and glories of the out-of-doors, in the Great 
 " Sunshine State," in absolute comfort but without any of 
 the unnecessary conventions of fashionable resorts. Outing 
 clothes are worn at all times. 
 
 Never having been publicly advertised, the lodge is 
 known and patronized almost exclusively by those who 
 have previously enjoyed its comforts, beauty and rare 
 hospitality or, by those who have been informed of it by 
 former guests. In this way the personnel of its guests has 
 always remained at a very high standard. 
 
 The guests live simply and dress simply. The atmos- 
 phere of the Lodge is that of one large family, in whose 
 varied activities guests may mingle at their pleasure. 
 Those seeking change and rest from business and social 
 activities will find it an ideal spot. 
 
 [23] 
 
The Lodge positively does not entertain tubercular 
 guests. 
 
 The elevation of the Lodge is 7,200 feet. The climate 
 is delightful throughout the whole year. Owing to the 
 elevation, the dry, arid air and the sunshine, the heat of 
 summer is never oppressive nor is the cold of winter over 
 penetrating. With ninety per cent of sunshine during the 
 year, one may enjoy the out-of-doors almost every day. 
 
 In summer the average temperature in the shade, 
 during the day, is never over seventy-five degrees. Blankets 
 must be used at the lodge every night during the year. 
 
 In winter the days are normally sunny and balmy, 
 the nights cold and crisp. 
 
 It is a constant source of surprise to those not acquainted 
 with the climate of this section, to know that the summers 
 of Santa Fe are cooler and more delightful than those of 
 New England. Also that the winter climate is more 
 delightful than that of sections farther south. Owing to 
 the crisp, dry, invigorating air and the sunshine, the climate 
 is never debilitating. 
 
 The Lodge being located in the little canyon of the 
 Tesuque, the high mountains protect it from the winds of 
 winter. Its elevation above the valley shelters it from the 
 sandstorms and the dust of the desert below. 
 
 In addition to the usual social entertainments to be 
 found at the Lodge, its nearness to Santa Fe makes it

possible for the guests who so desire, to accept the rare 
 hospitality of the citizens and enjoy the delightful cultured 
 life centering about the Museum, always generously open 
 to visitors. The Santa Fe Club cordially extends the 
 courtesies of its club house and golf course to the guests of 
 the Lodge who may desire to indulge in golf. 
 
 The Lodge motors make daily trips to and from the 
 city and guests are always in close touch with the outside 
 world, by long distance telephone and telegraph. 
 
 Nowhere else in America is the mountain scenery more 
 magnificent than that to be found near the Lodge. The 
 world famous Rockies offer every variety of mountain life 
 to the mountain climber, the hunter, the fisherman and the 
 lover of the out-of-door life. A few hours' ride from the 
 Lodge, on the mountain trails brings one to the heart of the 
 mountains, where the bear, mountain lion, wild cat, deer, 
 wild turkey, etc., are plentiful, and the mountain streams 
 abound in trout. 
 
 By motoring a short distance from the Lodge, one can 
 reach the Rito de los Frijoles, with its wonderful pre-historic 
 cliff dwellings, and buried cities, the most pretentious of its 
 kind in the world. Also the Indian Pueblos, from the noted 
 Pueblo de Taos down through the Rio Grande Pueblos of 
 San Juan, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, San Ildefonso, Cochiti, 
 Santa Domingo, San Felipe, etc. Here one encounters the

 Painted by W. E. RolUns 
 
 /y Navaho medicine man is here seen before the Prayer 
 •^ -^ Stone of his pueblo, offering supplication for the welfare 
 of his people, at the hour of sunrise. This he must do each 
 morning, regardless of the weather. 
 
 The Prayer Stone is invariably erected upon some 
 eminence overlooking the pueblo. It is deeply set in the 
 earth, and in front of it are placed four shapely stones, to 
 represent the Badger, Bear, Cougar and W^olf — guardians 
 of the four Earth Regions. 
 
 From the Sun Symbol upon the face of the Prayer 
 Stone are seen the Sun's Rays radiating to the four E^rth 
 Regions.

 Main Dining Room of The Bishop's Lodge, at Santa Pe.

original Americans, the Pueblo Indians, living today in their 
 semi-civilization, just as they lived when first discovered by 
 the pioneer Spanish explorers over 350 years ago. One may 
 also witness their wonderful ceremonial dances, see them 
 grinding their corn on primitive "metates," making Indian 
 pottery and weaving their baskets and blankets. 
 
 Our stable of reliable, sure-footed, grain fed, mountain 
 ponies, accustomed to the trails and the desert, is unsurpassed 
 anywhere. The equipment is all in keeping and high class 
 throughout. Horses and equipment are rented by the hour, 
 day, week or month. W^hen taken weekly or monthly, horses 
 and equipment are limited to the sole use of the guest engag- 
 ing them, at all times during the period of the engagement. 
 Experienced guides and riding instructors will be furnished 
 whenever desired. 
 
 The three guests' buildings, the North, South and 
 Central Lodges, are substantial brick and concrete structures, 
 stucco covered and built after Pueblo style of architecture. 
 They are thoroughly modern in every respect, steam heated 
 and electric lighted. 
 
 On the walls of the public lounging room and dining 
 room, in the Central Lodge, hang four massive paintings, 
 the work of Mr. W. E. Rollins, whose paintings of the 
 southwest are so justly celebrated. They represent the 
 symbolic life of the American Pueblo Indian and are most 
 unique and remarkable. 
 
 [37 
 
"The Earth Symbol" 
 
 Painted by W. E. Rollins 
 
 ^T^ H I S is Ho pi, and represents the Indian as a cultivator 
 ■^ of the land, walking on the mesa with hoe in hand. 
 Above the vegetation in front of him, he sees in his mind's 
 eye the Earth Symbol. 
 
 The Earth is divided into four Regions, in each of which 
 the Sun and Moon appear. 
 
 The Sun is the master and sustainer of life, while the 
 Moon governs the storms and rains. Between them, they 
 control the four seasons and the sunshine and rain, from 
 which the Indian receives his benefits, as both are con- 
 ducive to the production of crops. 
 
 Since these celestial bodies are hidden from his sight 
 for half the time, the symbols are obscured one-half in each 
 Earth Region. 
 
 The Sun being the master of light as also the sustainer 
 of life, the Earth Symbol is capped by the Thunder Bird, 
 which rises above the Clouds, and carries upward the 
 aspirations and prayers of the Indian. 
 
 The original painting of "The Earth Symbol" hangs in 
 the "Central Lodge" of The Bishop's Lodge, at Santa Fe.

The North and South Lodges are the principal residen- 
 tial buildings. The Central Lodge is the Administrative 
 building. It contains the office, main lounging room, dining 
 room, kitchen, ice and cold storage plant, laundry, heating 
 plant, billiard room, etc. It also has six large bedrooms on 
 the second floor, each with private bath. 
 
 The Lodge is operated on the American plan and is 
 open throughout the entire year. The range of accommo- 
 dations is wide and varied, as follows : 
 
 Suites, consisting of bedroom, glass enclosed sleeping

 ings. They are so located as to permit the occupants to 
 use the conveniences of the main building.

^T^ H E "Royal and Ancient" Game of Golf has attained 
 ■^ so important a place in the scheme of American life 
 that special pains have been taken to provide adequately for 
 its enjoyment at The Bishop's Lodge. 
 
 Guests of The Lodge are accorded the full privileges 
 of the splendid Lavato Links of the Santa Fe Club, and here 
 tournaments and matches are played off at frequent intervals. 
 
 The course is well cared for, and the Club House is 
 unique and comfortable. 
 
 Here are eighteen holes, well laid out to utilize fully 
 the peculiarities of the topography. A general idea of their 
 character may be obtained by reference to the map of the 
 Links following. 
 
 Hazards are presented which will test amply the skill 
 of the adept, while the uncertainties of the game afford 
 much encouragement to those who happen not to be so 
 proficient. 
 
 All in all, the Golf enthusiast will find during his stay 
 at The Bishop's Lodge, that delightful combination of a 
 perfect course, enjoyable companions, and interesting sur- 
 roundings which lend to the game its chiefest charm.

The Lodge table is of the highest standard and the 
 widest variety, abundantly served, but simply and tastily 
 prepared in home style by competent chefs. All of the 
 supplies for the table, such as meats, fowl, fish, vegetables 
 and fruits, when not obtainable on the local market, are 
 brought in regularly by express, from the points of produc- 
 tion. Vegetables and fruits from California and Florida; fish 
 and oysters, in ice from Baltimore, Md., insure a well-balanced 
 menu throughout the entire year. 
 
 The ranch dairy herd of Jerseys and Holsteins furnishes 
 ample fine milk and cream for the table, and the ranch 
 poultry farm keeps the .table always plentifully supplied 
 with fresh eggs and poultry. 
 
 The water supply is from the famous Bishop's spring, 
 located on the ranch property. The water is piped directly 
 into the buildings from its source of supply and is unexcelled 
 for purity and quality. 
 
 The Lodge is reached by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa 
 Fe Railway, and the Denver & Rio Grande Railway. 
 
 Baggage should be checked direct to Santa Fe. 
 
 The Lodge motors wU meet all trains at Santa Fe or 
 at Lamy Junction upon notice.

" The Ceremonial Altar of the Zuni " 
 
 Painted by W, E. Rollins 
 
 ^f H E Zuni alone use an altar — which is erected each 
 "*■ year about the middle of September, and remains up 
 for two weeks. The Indians come to worship singly, in 
 pairs, and in small groups. They always bring a flute player, 
 seen in the background of the painting — and also a bo\vl 
 of sacred meal which they scatter before the altar after each 
 has deposited his "Mila" or life-giver. 
 
 Five Milas are seen in the center, just in front of the 
 altar proper. Each consists of a base of corn shucks, plaited 
 with colored feathers, and into which the individual Indian 
 builds his idea of his own life. 
 
 Above the altar is the W^ind Symbol, centrally suspend- 
 ed — with four arms, a feather hanging from each, for the 
 four Earth Regions from which the "Winds blow. 
 
 The upper central head on the altar is The God of the 
 Heart of the Skies. The Thunder Bird messenger bringing 
 the prayers of the worshipers, is seen beneath. 
 
 The two upper heads at the sides, are The Sun Father 
 and The Moon Mother. Next below these are the heads 
 of the God of Storm and the God of Rain. 
 
 At the right of these latter two Gods are The Morning 
 Star or Warrior, and The Evening Star or Woman; two 
 animals symbolized on each, The Badger, The Bear, The 
 Cougar and The W^olf — guardians of the Earth Regions. 
 
 The Dragon Fly signifies Rain; The Serpent, W^isdom. 
 
 The original painting of "The Ceremonial Altar of the 
 Zuni" hangs in the Lounge of The Bishop's Lodge, 
 at Santa Fe.

From Alma Gluck Zimbalist 
 
 "Upon my departure from the Lodge, after our intensely 
 interesting visit of over a month, I wish to express to you 
 my appreciation of the many courtesies shown Mr. Zimbalist 
 and myself. "We both deeply regret our inability to remain 
 longer at this time. 
 
 W^e have thoroughly enjoyed your unique little resort. 
 Its unusual comforts; its quiet and homelike atmosphere 
 and remarkable hospitality; the outdoor life in the glorious 
 sunshine, together w^ith the ever increasing interest of the 
 adjacent desert and lofty mountains, have all combined to 
 endear the Lodge to both of us. 
 
 We are looking forward, with great pleasure, to another 
 and more extended visit as soon as possible." 
 
 From Mr. A. F. Whyte, 
 Westminister, London, England 
 
 "Was it only on Sunday that we said goodby to you 
 good folks at Bishop's Lodge — it seems already in the long 
 ago. But it's a memory that will never go. You introduced 
 us to a new world — a new mysterious alluring world that 
 will never cease to call us and to which we must inevitably 
 come back. 
 
 W^e are so very thankful to you for the whole experience 
 
 — from the delights and comforts of The Bishop's Lodge 
 to the strange haunting experiences of that day in the hills 
 
 — and we hope that we shall have some time the oppor- 
 tunity of returning your warm hospitality on the other side."

Extract from " Encyclopedia Britannica " 
 
 SANTA FE, the capital of New Mexico, U, S. A., and 
 the county-seat of Santa Fe county, about 20 m. E. of the 
 Rio Grande, and 339 m. N. of El Paso, Texas. 
 
 The city lies about 7000 ft. above the sea, at the foot 
 of the southern extremity of the Rocky Mountains, in the 
 Sangre de Cristo Range. Its climate is dry, equable and 
 healthy; the mean annual temperature is 46 degrees F., and 
 the mean annual rainfall 14.2 in. The hills surrounding the 
 city on all sides shelter it from the sandstorms which afflict 
 some parts of New Mexico, and its pleasant climate, attrac- 
 tive mountain scenery and historical interest make it a 
 favorite resort. 
 
 Santa Fe is built round a plaza or square. Crooked 
 streets, bordered with low adobe houses, are characteristic 
 of the older part of the city and give an impression of 
 antiquity. 
 
 In Pajarito Park, 20 m. W^. of Santa Fe, are many 
 prehistoric caves, cliff and communal dwellings, and near 
 the city are several prehistoric mounds. 
 
 After the independence of Mexico, Santa Fe became the 
 centre of a growing commerce with the United States, 
 conducted at first by pack animals, and later by wagon 
 trains over the old Santa Fe Trail leading south-west from 
 Independence, Kansas City, and, in earlier years, other 
 places in Missouri, to Santa Fe. On the 18th of August, 
 1846, soon after the outbreak of the war between the United 
 States and Mexico, Santa Fe was occupied by an American 
 force under General S. V/. Kearny.

\T ISITORSin Santa Fe will find on the Plaza the 
 ^ establishment of Julius Gans, "Southwest Arts CBi 
 Crafts", where may be seen one of the most complete col- 
 lections of Indian handicraft in the Southwest. 
 
 Indian Pottery of every available type is here displayed 
 in profusion. Basketry has also its ample space, and genuine 
 Indian Silverware as well. Blankets from all of the tribes 
 and pueblos now producing them, are likewise to be see here. 
 
 Mr. Gans has had many years experience among the 
 Indians and it is his conviction that in the not distant future 
 their handicraft will disappear because of their contact with 
 so-called " progress ". Even within the last three or four 
 years it has become impossible to secure any examples of 
 Pottery and of Basketry from pueblos that were formerly 
 busily occupied with handicraft of this character. 
 
 The wise collector will secure choice objects — now ! 
 
 In but a short time such objects will acquire a greatly 
 increased value. 
 
 Those who find it impossible to come to Santa Fe and 
 personally select from the remarkable Gans collection, will 
 receive a complete descriptive catalog with illustrations and 
 prices, upon request to " Southwest Arts Cgj, Crafts " at 
 Santa Fe, New Mexico.

AR T and Archeology is perhaps one of the most 
 sumptuously illustrated publications in America It 
 deals largely with the civilizations of the past — particularly 
 with those which existed in America. 
 
 On this account it is of especial interest to those who 
 have travelled in the Southwest — and desire to keep abreast 
 of the explorations and investigations in that section of the 
 United States. 
 
 To read it is to receive a liberal education in art. 
 The price, $5 per year, is a small sum indeed, when 
 one considers the amount of authoritative descriptive matter 
 in twelve months issues, or the quantity of fine illustrations. 
 Fifty cents will bring a single number, from which a better 
 idea of the worth of this unique and valuable publication 
 may be obtained. Address

TH E First National Bank of Santa Fe is one of the historic 
 banking institutions of the West. It was founded more than fifty 
 years ago by Lucien B. Maxwell, one of the great land proprietors 
 of New Mexico in the days before the coming of the railroads. For 
 several years it was the only bank within several hundred miles of 
 Santa Fe and to this day maintains its pre-eminence as the parent to 
 several hundred banks which now flourish in trade territory it served 
 originally all by itself. 
 
 In its early days it took weeks to communicate with the authorities 
 in Washington and so it happened that while the organization meeting 
 was held on September 3, 1870, it was April 18, 1871, before the bank 
 opened its doors. Since then its history has been one of uninterrupted 
 growth and progress. 
 
 Its first statement showed deposites of $46,000 and these have 
 grown to more than $2,000,000 at this time. It has been a veritable 
 financial Gibraltar in days of stress and strife and more than once came 
 to the aid of the State and community in financing essential and urgent 
 necessities. 
 
 Its presidents have been men of distinction and include such 
 celebrities as the late United States Senator Steven B. Elkins and the 
 late delegate to Congress, Pedro Perea, the late Major R. J. Palen, the 
 late William W. Griffin, while the present incumbent is Mr. Levi A. 
 Hughes. 
 
 The bank occupies a fine new home on the main business plaza of 
 Santa Fe and has just purchased additional grounds upon which it 
 plans to erect a modern annex, especially equipped for its Trust De- 
 partment. It commands important banking connections in the larger 
 cities and has installed every modern banking facility in order to serve 
 its customers and ths public.
