Palatial New Home

Putting your money on the hosses can be done in Gisborne now in the most palatial surroundings. These pictures of the new T. A. B. offices in Gladstone Road show that.

With 4500 square feet of floor space, the Totalisator Agency Board is now well set up. The builders were T. W. Lewis & Son, and Glengarry, Glengarry & Corson were the architects.

The new offices are reached by a corridor adjacent to the H.B. store. At one time the premises were billiard rooms, an auction room, and a bakery.
