A second branch, known as the Mitchell Street Branch. was opened in 1906 at the corner of Mitehell Street and Third Avenue. Mr. Henry J. Mill- man, who was then connected with the Western Worsted Mills, became the aetive manager. The opening of this branch was followed by an increase in the capital stoek to $250,000.
During the following year Edwin Reynolds, owing to ill health, retired from the presidency, and was sneceeded by Jesse B. Whitnall, who served until 1915. Edward A. Farmer was then chosen.
During the years of 1917 and 1918 the bank engaged in an important de- parture. The main bank was moved down town and the old bank location beeame a branch. At the same time the capital stock was increased from $250,000 to $500,000. During this period, too, the old name was discarded and the name Ameriean Exchange Bank was chosen.
New bank quarters were opened in the Plankinton Areade on Second

Street, dignified and modern in appointment, and in keeping with the demands of a first class financial institution. Safe deposit vaults for the use of the patrons of the bank were provided and a bond department was established.
Inasmuch as the banking laws no longer permitted the addition of new branch banks the Bay View branch became an independent institution and is now known under the name of the Bay View Commercial and Savings Bank. The National Avenue and the Mitehell Street branches were retained and are now operated as branches of the American Exchange Bank. Early in the year 1921 the Mitehell Street branch was housed in a new and commodious home, constituting the most imposing bank structure in that section of the city.
In December, 1919, Edward J. Kearney was made the president of the bank. He is of the firm of Kearney & Trecker Company of West Allis, and enjoyed a high standing among the industrial and commercial interests of the city. Thus, his active connection became a distinct asset to the bank. About this time the capital stock of the bank was increased to $1,000,000, made neces- sary by its increase of 68 per cent in its deposits.
Speaking prospeetively of the American Exchange Bank it should be stated that it has seeured a long term lease on the northeast corner of Grand Avenue and Second Street, upon which site it will ereet a modern bank struc- ture within the next year or two.
The growth of the bank has been a steady and substantial one. While its capital stock was increased within a comparatively few years from $250,000 to $1,000,000, its deposits have grown with equal steadiness having now reached the $8,500,000 figure.
National Bank of Commerce .- The Germania National Bank opened for business July 1, 1903, with a capital of $300,000. The first board was com- posed of the following nine directors: William Berger, Louis W. Bunde. George Brinnder, Herman Fehr, Willibald Hoffmann, George P. Mayer, Alfred G. Schultz, Frederick M. Wilmanns, Frank P. Ziegler. George Brumder was the first president and held this office until the time of his death, May 9, 1920. June 9, 1910, Wm. C. Brumder was elected president of the bank. In 1918 the old name was discontinued and the title National Bank of Com- meree was adopted. In July, 1919, the capital of the bank was raised from $300,000 to $1,000,000 and the number of stockholders increased from 65 to 400.
In January, 1920, Mr. Brumder severed all his active business eonnee- tions. He retired from the presideney of the bank and was sueceeded by Herman Fehr. At that time the number of directors was increased to thir- teen and all of those who then constituted the board are still active.
The first statement to the Comptroller of the Currency in 1903 showed total footings of $900,000. The quarters were very small and the entire official and working foree consisted of five people. From this small be- ginning, the business has grown steadily and at the last statement call the footings amounted to about $10,000,000. Additional space has been taken on from time to time. The number of employes now exceeds sixty people.
Building up of a bank is due to the confidence placed in it. Only by giv- ing good service and satisfaction ean a bank retain and continue to enjoy

the confidence and patronage of its customers. The bank is thoroughly equipped to handle the business of its clients promptly and to extend every aeeommodation consistent with sound banking. Bond Department was added in 1912.
The present Board of Directors consists of: Wm. Berger, Frank P. Blumenfeld, Geo. F. Brumder, Wm. C. Brumder, Louis W. Bunde. Herman Fehr. Albert T. Friedmann, Wm. J. Kranthoefer, Geo. P. Mayer, Arthur R. Munkwitz. Alfred G. Schultz, Herman A. Wagner, Chas. 11. Whiffen, and Frederick M. Wilmanns.
The West Side Bank of Milwaukee .- A State Bank, was organized in April, 1893, and opened for business on May 10, 1893, the premises occupied being then known as Doctor Sen's Bloek. This location is known as historic ground to the old settlers of Milwaukee. It was on this site that the first brick building in the City of Milwaukee was erected by John Hustis, and known to the old settlers as The Hustis Block, the pride of early Kilbourn- Town, this being the name of the settlement on the west side of the river, before its consolidation with the settlement on the east side of the river, then known as the original Milwaukee.
The first Milwaukee newspaper, the Milwaukee Advertiser, owned and published by Alonzo Richards, was printed on this same site that is now occupied by the West Side Bank Building.
The West Side Bank was originally a branch of the Merchants Exchange Bank, of which the late Rudolph Nunnemaeher was cashier and manager. When the Merchants Exchange Bank and the First National Bank were consolidated, early in 1894, the West Side Bank incorporated as a separate institution, with a charter from the State, as a State Bank, the National Banking Laws at that time not permitting branch banks.
Due to conservative management, the West Side Bank is today one of the soundest and financially strongest institutions of the eity, which is clearly demonstrated by a perusal of its annual statement.
The first officers elected on July 1, 1894, were as follows: President, Adam Gettelman ; vice president, Osear JJ. Fiebing: eashier, George Koch ; assistant eashier, Alfred G. Schultz.
In 1903 Alfred G. Schultz, assistant cashier, resigned, to become cashier of the Germania National Bank, and Chas. J. Kuhmmuench, who had been connected with the West Side Bank, since its opening on May 10, 1893, be- eame assistant cashier.
Oscar J. Fiebing resigned as vice president in October, 1910, owing to continued illness, and George Koch was elected vice president and Chas. J. Kuhmneneh, cashier. Herbert Feeriek, connected with the bank since 1895, became assistant cashier. So that the officers today are: President. Adam Gettelman; vice president, George Koch: cashier, Charles J. Kuhnmuench ; assistant cashier, Herbert Feerick.
The capital on July 1, 1894, was $100,000. This was increased to $200,000 on May 10, 1911, and to $400,000 on May 10, 1920. Today, the surplus is $200,000, and undivided profits approximately $175,000. Deposits are ap. proximately $3,000,000.
