Free Public Library as q reading room.
This room has small part partitioned of

room is TO be used on special occasions for
parties, socials, etc An open stairway
leads from here TO the floor above, opening
on to small room in the rear OF the
building. This room with the large room
below will constitute the outer ante
room, there being no door between them.
From the outer ante-room the members
pass to the inner anteroom, which is fur
nished with tables and chairs. and will be
supplied with the daily papers, maga-
zines, etc. Next comes the lodge room

minute details The walls have been
smoothed and tinted dark, warm terra

while the cornices have been finished in
colors complimentary TO the walls and
ceiling. The floor is richly carpeted with
Lowell Body BRUSSELS of a dark red shade,

cone refiectors, each burning fifteen jets;
The gas pipe and fixtures were furnished
by S. b. Brown, Of Providence.
The rooms were formerly heated by the
aid of stoves, but the lodge has put in two
large boilers on the third floor. and steam

piece of work.
The communication between the lodge
room and the old ante-room has been seal
ed up, and the latter room has been turned
into an amusement room, and is reached
by the former outer stairway and door, to
which each member will possess a key.
The rooms have also been fitted with a
complete system of call bells, drums,
buzy, ETC., for degree work. so that instant
communication can be had between the
rooms. The committee in charge of the
