groined ceiling. The npr has an
incline Of five feet towards the pull
pit, over the vestibulc will be
gallery projecting into the auditori-
nm as lar as the first row Of seas.
1t is estimated that the auditorium

forlably, when five occnpy seat
55c persons can find room, with the
same crowdlng the new auditorium
will seat about 740. The pews are
arranged in scmi-cirCular form,
there will he five aisles, the ceutle
one extending only about thirds
of the way. Upon either side of the
choir loft and leading 10 the main
hall of the Sunday School depart
ment are Two entrances, these being
oil the lowest level of the floor will
he appreciated by those who wish 10
avoid ascend ng the front steps, as
well as connecting the auditorium
with al other parts of the church.
I'm the matter of ventilation Mr..
Burdwell expects TO meet all that is
| required. When the committee re-
qussted that both the auditorium
and Sunday school room he so VENT
lated as not to depend on the doors
and windows, thus avoiding draughts
with the heights of these apart
ments aid the cupola or ventilalors
)ver head of both, this end can
doubtless be accomplished.
Choir loft as planned is Is feet
deep and 26 feet wide, by 24 feet
high, with dome-shaped ceiling TO.
wards auditorium to centre of arch.
1t has been suggested Ivy choir mem.
bers That the depth be increased two
feet by bringing forward the foo
into the auditorium, by so doing
this apartment will be cooler ant
less of the appearance of the choi
being "cooped in" our present
choir loft is 204x 19Btt. depth.
Sabbath school, prayer meeting
and social loom, is proposed to bt
64x64x35ft high and 94ft. height
III, der the gallery (l2 feet wide)
around two sides and rear. The
desk of the superintendent or leader
can be seen from every part Of this
room and is well arranged. On ac-
count of our warm climate, it has
been thought best to leave out the
81 ding doors and slat curtains under
the side galleries, but TO retain those
under the rear gallery, that they
may ne closed when the room j,
used for prayer meeting, and thu.
decrease 'he size OF such largt
room. The ceiling is on the SAM
plan as that of the auditorium, th'
floor level, and floors of the CALLER
on slope but stepped. Our pr,
sent Sunday school rooms have al
area of 2S72 square feet again>
400 square feet in our propose
room, not including gallery an
primary room, Which would ad
200 square feet, OF whole area {
$500 square feet; about two-lhird
more space than we now have.

sures 29x234 IT,, TO be entered frel
the upstairs hall, by large sldin
doorway, this room correspondent
with the pastors study (24x2lD u

thought by some that the room
not of sufficient size for our prlmaI
school, but il is suggested that onI
the youngest scholars be kept fl

, two triangular rooms each side TIL
, 70 to 80 scholars Can lie well accol
