WO years T ago the Old Colony Trust Company erected at No. 52 Temple Place, midway be- tween Tremont and Washington Streets, a four- story fire-proof building, which is entirely devoted to the uses of the Company. The basement contains the safe deposit vaults; on the ground floor is the banking room; the second floor rooms are reserved

for women ; and the committee rooms on the

- - fourth floor are at - the disposal of depositors and renters of safe deposit boxes. Signature cards are kept in duplicate, one at the main office in the Ames Building and the other in the Temple Place office, so that deposits can be made and checks cashed at either office. #Iii Colony Crust Company

BANKING ROOM, TEMPLE PLACE OFFICE

NE of the chief reasons for the establishment of the Temple Place office was to offer to women

adequate and convenient banking facilities in

the retail shopping district. The pass-books and check-books used are small enough to

fit into a woman’s shopping-bag, and from the tellers’

windows clean bills and new silver are always issued.

Every effort is made to render it easy and pleasant for women to transact their business at this office. In addition,

the entire second floor is reserved for their exclusive use,

and is comfortably furnished, and supplied with writing desks, stationery, magazines, and telephone service. COLONIAL THEATRE PROGRAM. WEEK OF APRIL 3, 1906. 9

The chest has gracefully curved sides and front. There are short but massive claw feet. Under the brass escutcheon on the front is a winged medallion in low relief.

“ If this egg should tumble down, You'll hnd a daughter, lose a crown.*^

The moment of the curtain’s rise an egg is shown of monstrous size. The sleepy soldiers of the king guard this extraordinary thing, when, to the populace’s cheers, the royal cook-lady appears with Peter, her most hopeful son, a limb, if there was ever one. Then pretty little Blossom too, the long-lost princess, comes in view; while Mary, with her heart long set on a gigantic omelet, to the untold dismay of all, contrives to make the big egg fall.

ITH the approach of summer and the vacation period, most people have to consider how their dividends, coupons, and mortgage interest can be most advantageously looked after during their absence. If the securities are kept in safe deposit vaults, access to them must be given to some one for the purpose of cutting coupons from bonds, indorsing interest payments on mortgages, or making the necessary deliveries

of any securities which it may become desirable to sell. The Old Colony Trust Company, for a small charge, receives, and acts as custodian for, the securities of persons who mav be temporarily or permanently absent, or who for various reasons wish to free themselves from the details of the care of their property.

It becomes responsible for the safe-keeping of the securi-

ties entrusted to its care, thus offering a guarantee of safety which may not be realized by the method of giving an individual access to the owner’s box. It makes a record of the due date of every item of income, collecting the coupons as soon as payable, and following up at once any

failure of a dividend or interest check to arrive on time. It

disposes of the income as instructed, depositing it to the

owner’s credit at any bank, remitting it by foreign draft to

any place he may direct, or paying it over direct to some

individual. It prepares papers by which the sale of securi-

ties can be effected without undue delay whenever desired.

And, in general, it relieves the owner of every detail of the financial management of his property, and assures him

the satisfaction and safety afforded by its experience and resources. I CoIon|» Crust Compan|) ! !
