GROUND BROKEN MONDAY NElT BANK 8TKUCT0KE fO BE COMPUKf* ttlY NAY PIK8T The eontract has been let and ground was broken on Monday of this week for the West McHenry State bank's new home, which is to be erected on the lot recently purchased of Peter B. Freund arid situated just west of Mr. Freund's place of business. • The structure will be one of the fin­ est, if not the finest, of its kind in Mc­ Henry county, the plans calling for a building that will be a model7in beauty as well as one that will fill every re­ quirement known to .the modern bank­ ing ways. , The building will be 28x60 feet, one story in heights with a front elevation of fewenfcy-five feet. The front will be constructed of granite and terra cotta, while colonial face brick will be used in the wall construction. The interior of the place will be of tile and marble and we feel save in saying that it will surpass^anything to be found in any town the size of Mc­ Henry in the whole United States. The fixtures will be of the latest and best that money can buy, while the rest and privatfe rooms will be fur- ished most elegantly. The vault equip­ ment will be something out of the ordinary for a small town, while a pub- lic*~tele|»hone and drinking fountain will be among the other things that will assist in making the place as com­ plete as it is possible. - .The contract for the building has been awarded to the Nachtogall Manu­ facturing company of Grand Rapids, Mich., which makes a specialty of bank building. With the completion .df' the new building McHenry will "not only be given one of the best little banks in the country, but a building that would do credit to a city of 25,000 or more.
