The floor is of rich TerraZa marble,
3 the fixtures of bronZed steel, and all
of the stairWays are of iire-prOOf
metal. Only few partitions are or
wood and these are of ornate mas
sive mahogany. They separate the
offices of the commercial, savings,
real estate, trust and safe deposit
departments.
The safe deposit facilities will be
unique in that there will be private
: rooms where one may take his or
her box and examine its contents
alone. Each safe deposit renter
will have his special key that will
open his or her box and no access
to this box is possible without It,.

personal papers, deeds, insurance
policies and other documents too
valuable to be kept in the home.
The night depository system is a
further valuable service that the
Milford Trust Company will render
the merchants and others of the
community who want to make de-
posits after banking hours, Sundays
and holidays. One merely uses a spe-

which opens a slotted window on the
front of the building, and as the win
dow is closed it catapults the de-
posits into a heavy steel safe on the
inside which can only be opened by
the officials of the bank.
Each department has been espe-
cially planned to serve the greatest
number of people, and every known
mechanical computing devices have
been installed to save time and work
for both patron and employee. De-
positors will find the new building
offers many new facilities for max
ing their business with the bank
both simple and serViceable.
One of the innovations will be a
private rest room for women, and It
will be equipped for the woman who
would have unusual privacy in eX-
amining papers and receipts, ana

leisurely way should she so desire.
There is an ample Office for the
president on the street floor and an
immense room for the directors on
the second floor.
The bank itself will be open to
depositors for business at 8 O'Clock
and will remain open until 10 p. m.
on opening day All business at the
present temporary quarters will
cease with the closing of the bank,
