Citizens Savings Association Builds a Growing Missouri Town
The Citizens Savings Association started in 1955 under Frank H. Kister with assets of 30 790 and grew to 150 million today. By 1972 assets reached 45 940 297 as expansion and new offices increased employment and community impact in north Missouri. Jack Baker led as president from 1968 and the bank purchased a half block for headquarters expansion in downtown Mexico. The Ledger congratulates Baker and the Citizens family for fostering jobs and local development across 34 full time offices and 70 employees with more growth ahead.
