Old Reliable Brooklyn Savings Bank to Begin Business in Phoenix Block Today, This (Monday) morning the Brook- Iyn Savings bank will open for busi- ness in its new quarters in the Phoenix block, in the rooms recently vacated by the Danielson Trust company. The coming of the bank to Danielson con- summates an expectation of many years and a change that it has taken a great deal of effort upon the part of those interested to bring about. Since October, 1913, when the bank moved from Brooklyn Center, where it had been located since its in corporation in 1872, it has been located in a building on South Main street, West Side, which is just within the limits of the town of “Brooklyn. Its business increased with unprecedented rapidity from the very first days in its West Side quar- ters and the deposits have very sub- stantially increased. With the transfer of the bank to Danielson, where it will continue to do business under its old name, the bor- ough gets one of the best known sav- ings institutions in eastern Connecti- cut, one of the old reliable type, and HERE’S QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Rheumasalts Routs Constipatiot Constipation doesn't linger when Rheu masalts action.

At Success of Bill For State Farm For Inebriates. There is special interest here in the favorable report of the committee on humane institutions of the legislature on the bill providing an appropria- tion of $50,000 for the establishment of a state farm for inebriates. This s a meausre that has been steadily urged by Judge Edgar M. Warner of this city for a number of years—since 1899, and probably on account of his efforts more than forany othe reason has interest in the matter been kept alive. The legislature of 1915, in both its branches, passed the Dbill, but it failed to become a law because of the fact that Governor Baldwin ‘did not affix his signature to the bill. Judge Warner believes that the es- tablishment of a farm for inebriates will be the means of working wonder- ful reforms among the habitual drunk- ards. The plan is to send them to the farm to serve indetermideat sentences, its coming increases Danielson’s pres- tige as a financial center. The bank's deposits are in excess of a million and three-quarters, exclusive of assets that increase that sum very substantially. This means that the to- tal of money deposited in Danielson's four banks has been increased by con- siderably over $2,000,000 since the first of last November. The bank officials are confident that Danlelson’s old but new financial in- stitution will now realize even greater benefits than was the case when the change from Brooklyn Center was made in the fall of 1913. The bank will now be very accessible for all who wish to transact business with it, the handicap of distance from steam and trolley roads having been Wholly re- moved. J. Arthur Atwood of Wauregan js president of the bank, F. A. Jacobs vice president and Clarence A. Potter treasurer. The bank will move into its new quarters before they are fully fitted as intended, but the vaults used by the other banks that have occupied the quarters and other essentials to the proper safekuarding of money and se- curities are in perfect condition.

BLANKET POLICY. Likely to Be Taken Out By County Commissioners to Protect Employes. The county commissioners have given considerable attention of late to the matter of protecting employes of the county with compensation insur- ance and it is possible that a blanket policy covering all such will be taken out. It is understood that the matter has been taken with up with representa- tives of insurance companies and that tentative forms of policies will be summitted to the commissioners for inspection. It has been something of a proposi- tion to ascertain to just what extent the county should go In providing such protection as it is felt is needed in the way of compensation insurance, and one of the questions of special in- terest is whether or not such a policy should cover prisoners who are let out from the county jail to do various kinds of work, as opportunity offers. This and other points wij} receive the proper legal consideration before any definite action is taken. Officers of Drop-In Class.
