P. 181 SN PV [& 12,000 Visit Bank on Opening Days of New Building Twelve thousand people visited the new State Bank and Trust company of Evanston, last week when it opened its doors formally to the pub- lic. Beginning at 8:30 each morning and lasting until 10 p. m. Saturday night a constant stream of guests en- tered the bank and were shown through the entire new structure. Officers of the bank met them at the top of the entrance stairway and in- vited them to be shown through the bank by guides or to go through it at their own direction. Three quarters of the 12,000 were shown through by guides who took them first to the of- ficers' space, director's room and then back of the cages surrounding the main lobby. Next they were shown the vault room in the basement, the coupon booths and trunk storage space and the community room. On the third floor next they visited the trust department and the advertising de- partment, went through the mezzanine passageway, past the telephone switch- board overlooking the lobby and down a back elevator to the main floor. Behind the scenes they saw demon- strated the operation of the electrical machines which have been installed to assure customers' efficient and rapid service. The ornamental wrought iron grilles, fixtures and lobby equipment, the beautiful color work of the ceiling and the colored floor tiles were ob- jects of admiration of the visitors. The architectural beauty of the lobby was augmented by floral decorations, a hundred baskets or more, the gifts of other banks from many parts of the country, of commercial houses of Ev- anston and houses with whom the bank has business, and of many indi- viduals. The Blackstone quintet played in the lobby of the bank Friday evening and Saturday afternoon and evening. Each of the visitors was presented with a rose and a card to sign if he wished a copy of the brochure the bank is now publishing. Bank employees acquainted with the features of the new building showed the guests through it. Many old di- rectors of the bank and old custom- ers visited on the openiag days. Pictures illustrating various depart- ments of the bank and showing a part of the crowd will be found on page 37. 158 Pupils Enrolled in Winnetka Summer School One hundred and fifty-eight pupils are enrolled in the summer school which is being held at the Horace Mann school, according to Miss LaReina Bubbett, principal. The enrollment is the largest in the history of the school and includes a number of out-of-town children. The classes are mainly of the lower grades; very few of the Skokie pupils having signed up for work. Most of those in the school are there in the interest of getting along in their work faster and net because of delinquincy during the winter term, Miss Bubbert states. Willard Beatty Teaching at University of Chicago Willard J. Beatty, formerly the prin- cipal of the Skokie school and Assis- tant Superintendent of the Winnetka schools, has returned to the North Shore for the summer. Mr. Beatty is teaching at the University of Chicago summer session in the School of Educa- tion and is occupying the Harry Clark residence on Spruce street. Mr. Clark, director of Physical Ed- ucation in the Winnetka schools, is teaching in the Physical Education de- partment of Harvard University during the summer. Sid ay
