Columbus Day will be observed throughout the country on October 12. This is observed as the anniversary of the birth of Christopher Columbus, the discoverer of the New World in 1492. While it is the Italians who observe this day to the greatest ex- tent, it is fitting that the entire city do their part towards recognizing the discoverer of part of the world in which we now live, even if it is by no other method than by unfurling Old Glory to the breezes.

Mayor Quigley has sent a letter of cOngratulatiOn to both Chief Rawlings and Chief Dame, complimenting them on the appearance of their respective departments in the big parade of a week ago. And well he might for the policemen and the firemen showed to advantage and proved conclusively to the public that New Britain has two public service departments that will never be found wanting when the test comes.

It is pleasing to note that the care takers of Fairview cemetery have gone to some pains to repair the Stan lev street entrance. Heretofore the gateway had not been open to the public and the approach had become a vcritable jungle. This has all been cleared away and the gateway will hereafter be open to foot travel on Sat rrdav afternoons and Sundays. A cOm1nendable move.

Ever since talk first started several months ago regarding the appointment of enough men to make the fire de- rartnent permanent and to do away with the call system people have been wondering what will become of all the calImon, with years of service behind thcr1 who cannot be made regulars. Present indications are that almost all of them will be cared for and that when inc department is made permanent they will be pensioned as provided in the city charter.

wall decoration is In rich, deep old

moniously with the marble in the
main lobby and lending very quiet
and pleasing effect 10 the entire in

The floor in the main banking room
is OF Tennessee marble while the
counters and railing throughout are
in Italian marble, quarried in north
ern Italy The cages, consultation
rooms and officers quarters are all
finished in a rich brown mahogany
The grill work surrounding the lobby
is of cast bronze
Lobby Occupies Center.
The room is designed with center
lobby, through which are distributed
two beautiful electrically lighted
check desks, drinking fountain and
several seats all built Of marble, add
ing much to the ornamentation OF the
room. Immediately upon entering
are two attractive waiting rooms; one
for the use Of the general public, and
the other equipped with all modern
facilities for the exclusive use OF
women. The furnishings in this latter
room are all in the Martha Washing
ton style and is one of the most
unique features Of the entire interior
equipment and one certain to be ap-
preciated by the ladies of this COM
munity
On the one side Of the lobby are ar
ranged the tellers' and book keepers

more than one-half are already rented.
On the opposite side is battery OF
money chests, in which the banks
money and securities are kept. Just
outside OF the safety deposit vault is
a separate fre-proof vault in Whic.
the banks books and records will be
kept The entrance to the vault
lobby is guarded with heavy bronze
grill, the gate of which is electrically
controlled
Another very interesting feature in
this new building and which has the
unique distinction of being the first
system of its kind installed in any
building in this city is the ventilating
system BY means of a system of
electric blowing fans and an arrange
ment known as an air washer, the
air in the banking room is automat-
ically changed seven times every
hour, exhausting all the foul air and
bringing into the building again pure
fresh air.
Temperature Regulated.
Throughout the rooms are placed
several small thermostats which auto
matically regulate the temperature.
These thermostats. through a series
Of hampers and compressed air, con-
troll the volume and temperature,
opening or closing hampers as the
temperature outside the building may
vary and maintaining an even tenn
perature in the rooms at all times
This insures good, healthful working
conditions for the banks employees,
as we'll as adding to the comfort of
its patrons during the transaction of
their business.
The officers of Dickinson Trust

OF larger and more adequate working
space had become an absolute neces-
sity on account of the rapid expan-
SION of the company's business, but
more particularly do they assign as
their reason for the building of this
.oa nome taeir desire to give to
heir thousands of friends and patrons
not only they, but the entire com
! more conveniently located and
modern banking home.
That the company's customers will
appreciate this new home which has
been built for them goes without say
ing. for it is certainly one in which
munity, can always feel justihable
pride Dickinson Trust company Is
to be congratulated upon giving to
our city this new monument Of bust
ness enterprise.

ment and the consultation rooms.
Two Of these consultation rooms are
located Just upon entering the bank
ing room, conveniently situated for
the banks customers and the entire
public, to be used by them for the
purpose of meeting their friends and
holding committee meetings, etc. The
idea is entirely novel and one of
which the public will be certain to
avail itself
Install Electric Elevator.
The company attorneys Offices on
the second floor and the directors
room on the third floor are reached
By an electric elevator Throughout
the banking room is an inter-com-
municating telephone system, max
ing it possible to talk to persons in
all parts Of the bank without having
to leave their desks. All the desks,
chairs, book-trucks and every part OF
the banks equipment will be new and
finished in brown mahogany to match
in color the other woodwork
Perhaps the most prominent fea-
ture Of the entire bank is the massive
safety deposit vault. which is one of
the finest in the state Its approx
mate weight is more than forty-fve
tons and is the strongest vault of any
bank in Richmond. The large cir
cular door alone weighs twelve tons
and the hinge on which it is hung
weighs two tons, but is SO finely ad-
justed that little, If any, strength is
required to open and close it.
Closed by "a Bolts.
1t is kept closed with twenty-four
bolts, which are controlled with two
combination and four time locks, all
working independently Of each other.
On the one side of the vault are 700

The construction OF the building is
as modern as scientific engineering
can provide. The foundation is Of
large reinforced concrete piers, while
the building itself Is carried on a
steel skeleton OF columns, beams and

many tons. The building, which was
built for the exclusive use OF the
bank, Is OF Grecian architecture, and

protected with bronze grill. The
