BUCKLEY AS SPEAKER.

If Major John Buckley could be speaker of the House and Colonel Hall president of the Senate the military atmosphere would be preserved and Holland county, the smallest in the state, would have it's full share Of honors, considering that it also is the birthplace of the governor-e1ect and of the Democratic candidate for United States Senator. II will be diff ficult indeed to deny either the major or thee olone1, yet the fact of one small county claiming both legislative honors surely would be raised. Pos sibly it will be found that the major would rather be the candidate for at torney-genera1 two years hence than to be speaker.-Hartford Times
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-11-08

Hincks Brothers, bond dealers, i were doing business in their old of fees on State street for the last time Saturday. Between, closing time this morning <he office equipment was moved to their new building at $50 Main street, next to the First Bridgeport Nationat bank building. The forenoon was spent by the help in putting things to rights. This afternoon there will be a reception to a limited number Of guests from Bridgeport and New York, especially invited, by printed invitation. To- morrow t1c routine business of the firm will begin move along in sthe new quarters.
 Several reasons were back of the decision of the Hincks Brothers to build this building and move into it principal of which was the need of larger and more convenient quarters. In 1907, the firm employed but sev- en people, there are now forty alto ge%her In addition was a desire to be in a building of their own built for and adapted to their par ticular business. The result is a building which is an artistic and ar chitectural gem.
 der the supervision of Walter John i Skinner of this town. When the Fincks Brothers decided to build ] they requested MT. Skinner to pre- ! pare SkSICneS TOT d pu1lu1IS DuI SdSS i him no suggestions as to what it should be like except to insist that l it must be different from the ordin- ary stereotyped style of banking in stitutions. Mir. Skinner submitted a design which has been termed by some a very daring departure from heretofore accepted standards o1 banking architecture. It was kept over night and the next day the Hincks Brothers, who realized the
 artistic merit and possibilities in it
 returned it to MT. Skinner with in
 structions to go ahead without malz
 ing any changes whatever.
 The building is in English Colon1a
 style, perhaps a sort of modified
 Georgian, and is typical of the ole
 English coffee houses. Its hand i some facade sets back from tn
 building line just enough to allow
 narrow slip of grass between tn
 building and the light decorativ
 iron fence which curves in at on
 side to permit passage to the step
 in front of the single door. fev bits of shrubbery break the lin where building and ground meet.

Across the top of the front there is a | small parapet and sloping back from behind this is a roof pierced by three dormer windows and covered with rough varigated slate.
 Considerably to the left of the cen ter is the entrance: dignif1ed wooden door painted white. At the left of the door in the center of the space between the door and the cor her of the building is a hand-wrought iron lantern. On the right of the door are two interesting circularr bay windows with leaded frames. Just ward extension of a portion of the fence is a cast brass plate on which, against dull black background, polished brass letters spell the firm name.
 Passing through the doorway one enters a large room which occupies about a third of the building and is open clear to the roof. The ceiling is ornamentally beamed and the l plaster on the walls instead of being smoothed on, as is usually done, has ! had it's surface given texture very similar to what a. sculptor places on a heroic size statue and in addition l it has been colored with a, ground color of a light tan which here and | there has been touched with green and blue and intermediate shades giving the walls a wonderfully rich soft tone.
