F. L. WARDER.

F. L. Warder, cashier of the Farson Savings Bank at Farson, has been a lifelong
resident of Wapello county, his birth having occurred in Pleasant township, July
24, 1879, his parents being John C. and Nancy A. (Goudy) Warder, the former a
native of Ohio. The mother was born in this county and is a representative of
one of its old pioneer families. Both are still living and their family circle,
including twelve children, has never been broken by the hand of death—a
remarkable record.

F. L. Warder, whose name introduces this review, spent his youthful days in the
usual manner of farm lads. He became a pupil in the district school near his
father's home and through the summer months assisted in farm work, being thus
engaged until he reached the age of twenty-one. Thinking to find other pursuits
more congenial, and also hoping to find them more profitable than agriculture,
he left home and secured a clerkship in the Ottumwa National Bank, where he
remained for a year. On the expiration of that period he purchased an interest
in the Doty Clothing Company, with which he was connected for three years. He
then established the Farson Savings Bank in 1905, became its cashier, and is
still active in that capacity. Fie is a graduate of the Gem City Business
College of Quincy, Illinois. He has closely applied himself to his work, and the
thoroughness and energy with which he has executed the tasks devolving upon him
have developed his powers and made him a resourceful and forceful business man.

In 1903 Mr. Warder was united in marriage to Miss Lorene Lemberger of
Burlington, Iowa, a daughter of John L. and Mary (Semshorn) Lemberger, who are
now residents of Los Angeles, California. In their family were four children,
all of whom yet survive. Mr. and Mrs. Warder hold membership in the
Congregational church and are greatly esteemed in the community where they
reside because of various attractive social qualities and genuine character
worth. They own and occupy a fine residence in Farson, and Mr. Warder is also
the owner of an excellent farm of two hundred and seven acres on section 5,
Pleasant township, from which he derives a substantial annual income. It is now
a recognized fact that whatever he undertakes he accomplishes if the result can
be attained through straightforward, honorable effort, and thus he has made for
himself a creditable position in the business circles of the county.
