The Commerce is look- ing at extending its Thursday evening hours, as Thursday is one of the bank's busy days. "Friday after 5 p.m. we don't see people," says Mr. Brown, "Thursday would serve people better." Mr. Brown also says he doesn't see a de- mand for late Friday and Saturday openings. "Within 25 miles either way there are ins- tant teller machines. Maybe down the road that will be the answer in Seaforth." Whether or not the hours at the Commerce will be extended, and if so for how long; will be determined by the end of the year. While the banking managers in town don't see the hours as they currently stand as be- ing a problem, a survey conducted by the Business Improvement Area (BIA, with cooperation from the Marketing class at Seaforth District High School last year, revealed Seaforth area people would like to see hours in Seaforth comparable to bank- ing hours in larger centres. The BIA would like to see retailers in town open on Friday evenings, and having the banks open on Friday would be an incentive for the merchants. The BIA study also revealed out of town shopping skyrockets on Friday evenings. Museum • from page IA based on early photographs taken about 25 years later. "We're assuming that there was no change in the windows, and I think that's a fairly safe assmnpiion," Breede said. Breed described the second phase of the project hire an interlocking puzzle. While work continues on the school, construction starts on the display galleries. Agriculture, transportation, urban development, industrial development, the Canada Company, furniture, the military, and the museum's own development will each have their own display galleries, in ad- dition to the streetscape. As well, the facility's large storage area for the permanent collection will allow those items to be easily rotated it ar 1 "tit of tem- porary displays.

Included in st• -sgt that area, he said, is the museum's t allection of tex- tiles and other perishable artifacts which took seven man years to pack in acid -free cardboard containers. In total, there will be 37,000 square feet of space withing the complex, 30,000 in the new building and 7,000 in the restored school.
