L . C. Hutchins , president of the association, was toastmaster , and introduced the speakers. In a short address Mr. Hutch­ins urged the business men to co-operate in thei r -efforts for the mutual benefit of Four teenth avenue. He advised t h a t the business men get together often to make plans which ypould work, for, t h e Kood-'and he cautioned the mem who did not feel inclined to boost tne s t ree t , - a t least not to knock it .

The campus was then connected with the avenue by an old f OOtt>Tidge across the rav ine . He s tar t ­ed on hia business career wi th a deficit of 5 cents, bu t the wonderful growth of the s treet and the univers i ty have been responsible for the growth of his business. Mr. Perk ins remarked t h a t t b . e r e w a s n e e j i o £ a first-class l a u n d r y , a blacksmith shop and t h a t a good fam­ily hotel would also be a welcome ad­dition to Four teenth avenue.

" He spoke on the rapid develop­ment of Four teenth avenue and Univer­si ty avenue, which he has watched since coming to the Eas t Side, eighteen years ago.

the business interests and the general f ra te rn i ty spiri t . The large ga ther ing of business men gave the mayor an op­por tuni ty to remark tha t the street has increased in such a way and so many new business houses have sprung up t h a t he had not been able to get ac­quainted wi th all of them, and t h a t lie constantly met new faces. " I hope, too, tha t the association will use i ts good influence to stop the smoking nuis­ance in Southeast Minneapolis, was an emphatic suggestion in connection with the often-discussed topic.

Tn speaking of the universi ty. Mayor H a y n e s s a i d : " I h o p e t h e d a y w i l l c o m e when the legislature will unders tand the need colleges and universi t ies have for good instructors , and will ap­propriate enough money to enable teachers to live comfortablv and not to accept positions at colleges which are backed bv men such as Rockefeller and other mi l l ionai res . ' '

Alderman Chatfield addressed the gather ing on " W h a t an Alderman Can Do for Four teenth Avenue S E , " and assured the men t h a t the sidewalks w h i c h w e r e o r d e r e d u p t o _ A u g u s t , 1 9 0 4 , would be put m m 190o, and t h a t a number of electric l ights would be put in. He also promised to do all he could in his power to get Univers i ty avenue paved from Four teen th avenue to the < i t y l i m i t s . H o w a r d C h a m b e r l a i n , t h e newlv elected representa t ive , has also the paving of Univers i ty a t hoart , and assured the association to use all his possible influence to have an ap­propriat ion made for the pav ing of the street covering the frontage of the universi ty. There will be a lively scramble for the appropriat ions of the legislature for different purposes a t the univers i ty and Mr. Chamberlain will make a desperate effort to secure pa r t of the several hundred thousand dol­lars of the annual appropriat ion. H. L. Pa t they , J . E. "Ware and O. J . Amess spoke interest ingly on the different and most profitable ways of advert is ing Four teenth and Univers i ty avenues, a n d u r g e n t l y a s k e d t h e c o - o p e r a t i o n o f all members of t he association.

The banquet was served from a long table , p re t t i ly decorated with glowing red pomset t ia blossoms and pink car­nations. Covers were laid for forty-eight.

" Since the s teady growth of the Eas t Side the St^ Anthony Fal ls bank records an equal growth in i ts business. Outside of the regular business which is done wi th the leading business men, the bank holds; over 2,200 savings accounts and o v e r 1,000 of the small savings banks are dis­t r ibu ted among the customers.

All the valuable papers and securi­t ies of the bank are securely locked in the splendid new safe which was put in bu t a short t ime ago. The safe is bur­glar-proof as proof a s a clever con­t r ivance of mechanisms can make i t . There is not a single hole in the outer doors and the seams close as tho glued together. The ent ire machinery is au tomat ic and t r iple t imers govern the workings of the safe. I t works l ike a charm. Mr.. Scriver and Mr. Ware , the cashier of t h e bank, are t h e only men who have complete control of the work­ings of t he safe. At a set hour, indi­cated a t the t ime of closing the safe, the heavy steel --fears shoot aside and the doors can be opened by the large wheel. The safe has a pa ten t steel surface, solid welded angle caps, double • w o r m g e a r - w h e e l p r e s s u r e b a r s , t w e l v e heavy bolts, and everything necessary for a splendidly-equipped affair of t ha t sort, wi th a complete an t idynami te de­vice. I n the upper port ions are the chests containing the currency and val­uables used in the daily circulation of the business. The lower portion is an­other small safe in which $100,000 in gold is kept—the, average amount kept on hand by the bank . The safe s tands in a fireproof vaul t .
