In 1916, Phillips County State Bank erected a “magnificent electric illuminated clock” on the front of its building on main street, where the Lions Club mini park now stands. The clock’s set of Westminster chimes rang every quarter hour and could be heard practically as far as the clock could be seen. The 3-by-7-foot clock was operated by electricity from a master clock inside the building, which was guaranteed to keep practically perfect time. — Source: Phillips County Museum
