NEWLODGIER ROOMS
TUESDAY EVENING
Continued from page one) !.

the rooms Decorators were complet
ing their job in one room, in another
the floor was being given a polish, a
floor upon which a dance will be held
within four evenings. In another room
the billiard and pool tables were be.
ing made ready: while in the gymna.
ium the canvas floor cover had just
been laid.
There may be few touches here
and there which will still be wanting
Tuesday evening; but they will be
minor. The big job of putting the
two floors in readiness has been con-.
pleted;a and it has been, without a
doubt, a big job. and whoever had
charge Of it unquestionably deserves
credit. for the work has been done
well and shows thought and care and
taste.
On the first floor is the reception
room and buffet, which have been
done in oak. The reading room
which leads off from the reception
room is in koa. and is one of the most
attractive places in the home, with
its comfortable lounging chairs and
large windows. The billiard room is
in pine, while the dining room is of
oak. These rooms are all on the
first floor On this floor also are the
kitchen and a pantry. Both the lat
ter rooms are large enough to pre-
pare banquet for several hundred;
and up stairs, in what will probably
be called the assembly hall, there is
room-h event it is desired to give
a large banQuet-to seat several hun
dred.
The lodge can grow to the extend
OF several hundred members more, and
its new home will not be crowded.
And 1t, was probably with this ideal
growth in mind that the building CON-
mittee signed a ten year lease for
the quarters with G. M. Cooke, Ltd.
From Tuesday on, the corner of Fort
and Beretania streets probably will
be a lively place, and look more like
something doin' than it has before.
The large assembly hall occupied
the greater part of the upper floor
IT Is large splendidly construction
room, opening of from the elevator
Well lighted with incandescents, and
also with sufficient large bow win.
dows to flood it with sunshine, it is
now quite the most suitable assembly
room in the city. Here dances may
be given, or the secret rites of the
order performed; here banquets may
be served, or theatricals given; and
here also the lodge may be assembled
for speech-making. 1t is a lodge quar-
tiers unto itself, SO large and well ar
ranged is it.
OFF from. the reception room, on the
first floor, is library. Here will be
found works of all the standard au.
thors.
