NATL REMODELING WILL INCREASE SPACE Estimated $10,000 Job To Facilitate Handling Of In creasing Business Volume Twice the present loboy space will be provided by a complete remodeling of the interior of the Medford office. U. S. National Bank of Portland, George T. Frey, manager announced today. Remodeling work, to start within a few days, will be done one step at a time so as not to interfere with comfort and con venience of patrons, Mr. Frey said. The work will be in charge of Elmer Childers who handled the job three years ago when the entire bank building, at the northwest corner of Central ave nue and Main street, was re modeled inside and out. Business Grows Interior remodeling now has been made necessary by in creased business, Mr. Frey ex plained. Lobby space now is mostIy )n the front ,iong Main street where it is not particu larly needed. The remodeled lobby will extend through the center of the bank, north and south, and not along the sides as now. The teller windows, now in the cen ter, will be - 'oved along the Central avenue wall, extending from the Central avenue en trance to the Main street wall. Four teller windows will be added to take care of any future expansion in business. The three note windows, now extending east and west across the center of the office, will be swung around to extend north and south and parallel to the west wall of the bank. The bookkeeping department, now on the banking floor, will be moved to the mezzanli.e floor, which will be improved with a new lighting and air-conditioning system. Take SO Days It is figured that the remod eling will take about 60 days, the time depending on delivery of certain materials, such as matched marble for the floor and walnut waiscoting for wall panelling. The Oregon Granite company has assured the bank matching marble can be procured without difficulty but no report has been received on availability of the wainscoting, Mr. Frey said. He estimated cost of the remodeling at approximately $10,000. Remodeling of the old build ing into its present form was completed in July, 1938. the banking space at that time being doubled. Since then, in March. 1940, the bank bought the Farm ers Ac Fruitgrowers bank from the Getchell estate. This added business, plus a natural growth in business, has made facilities under the present arrangement inadequate, Mr. Frey said.

Boys in Army Camps Emphasize National Letter Writing Week New Importance Is attached to "National Letter Writing Week" this year because so many mem bers of families are away from home, serving with the armed forces of the nation or doing other kinds of defense work in industrial centers. So this year, when the fourth annual "National Letter Writing Week" is observed from Octo ber 9 to 11. the postofflce de partment suggests that members of families at home and those away exchange letters, saying that boys in army camps, espe cially, should hear from home as well as write to their parents. A bulletin from the postofflce department says: "Letters can be the source of great comfort and happiness to the thousands of young men serving in the armed forces. It would at least bespeak appreciation if during National Letter-Writing Week there could be widely developed the habit of frequent corre spondence with these well-deserving youths." w -Ui - i Ze I i r, i 7T i e- .tn -w - mm i I axeaxer- ..veJ .'Wt .x s I a ri y -ai i a x. a a m v Gun Gold" Cast t alto theatre as the companion Western with "Sweetheart of the Campus", a toe-tapping mus ical fracas starring Ruby Keeler.
