The recently completed head office building of Lloyds Bank in London is probably the moat wonderful in the world. It has taken more than four years to erect, and during that time 600 men have been engaged incessantly upon the work. Labour-saving, devices have been brought to a fine art. There enters, let us say, a customer who wishes to inquire the size of his balance. The clerk of whom he makes his inquiry writes down the message upon a telewriter. This is reproduced automatically and instantaneously in a department several floors away where the bank ledgers are kept. The ledger clerk looks up the amount and records the figures on the telewriter. Next moment these are passed over the counter to the customer. In the basements of the bank far below ground level are bombproof strongrooms with huge steel doors weighing many tons. Yet so beautifully balanced are they that a child can open them—once the key has been turned in their burglar-proof locks. All corridors are patrolled incessantly, and a wonderful system of mirrors enables the guardians to see round distant corners. DON'T CUT CORNS PARING ONLY MAKES THEM WORSE.
