UNITARIAN CHURCH
LIGHTING.SYSTEM
Unique Design by Horton D. Walker
Fixtures Correspond with Black
Walnut Finish of Church.

An electric lighting system has been in
stalled in the Unitarian church that is
unique in design. 1t was used for the first
time Sunday, replacing the gas lighting
system which has been in use since the
church was built
There are five fixtures, three across the
chancel front of the church, one over the
center aisle and the fifth over the balcony.
Each of the fixtures is four sided, joined
with Gothic arches at the corners, from
which are suspended stalactites while from
the center of each is the large glass for the
semi-indirect lighting. The chains from
which the fixtures are suspended are, like
the fixtures themselves, of black walnut.
The fixtures for the organ lights and those
in the vestibule are of statuary bronze to
correspond as nearly as possible with the
black walnut finish.
The fixtures were designed by Horton
D. Walker, who installed them, and the
work of making them and the chains was
done by H. w Sargent
