FAMOUS Hotel
REN0DELED

What Il claimed to be one Of
the most remarkable building feats
ever attempted has Just been dis
closed in London where the Savoy
Hotel, a resort wen known to most
United States visitors to England,
has undergone complete secret
building transformation during the
last two years.
A feature Of It Is that no one in
London except the hotel officials
themselves and the building con.
tractors have been aware Of what
was happening. New marvels,
fresh from the hands Of the artists
and decorators, unfolded themselves
suddenly from time to time as
from the wizardry Of an Aladdin's
lamp.
Amongst the many remarkable
