A NEW PURPOSE
COMMUNITY BANK BUILDING By Telegraph Press Association NAPIER, October 17. The building known as the Community Bank, erected immediately after the earthquake, at a cost oi £SOOO, will become vacant, as all the banks will have removed by the weekend to new premises. The building has been given by the banks to 38 unemployed, who were successful in gaining five-acre sections in the village settlement just south of the borough, on land raised by the same upheaval. The building was constructed by the Fletcher Construction Company in ten days, and will be re-erected as a public hall for the benefit of the settlers.
