(Continued From Faee One) The new building will occupy the entire lot on the corner of Adams and Depot streets, and will be when com pleted three stories in height, with offices and store room off the Adams avenue side. The present structure will be entirely wrecked, the new building will rise in its place and when completed will be the most modem building of its kinds between Portland and Salt Lake City, and will stand as a credit to the city and a monument to the. owners, as well as showing the confidence they have in the present and future welfare of La Grande. The south 80 feet will be entirely taken up with a modern theater. The exterior is designed in modern style I of white pressed brick and concrete, with' a marquise projecting from the ' building the entire width of the main entrance. The main entrance to the theater situated on Depot street will be elab orately fitted with expensive panel ing, doors and cornice. The decora tive scheme is one of remarkable splendor and in direct contrast with the interior of the theater, which is subdued in color suitable to the per fect comfort of the audiences. A beautiful and novel idea for a theater entrance is introduced in this respect in the form of glass mosaic panels between carved pilasters, this togeth er with the decorated mosaic in Gre cian form is emblematic of the tastes and feeling of the management. Leading from the main entrance and extending across the entire width of the theater is an elaborate and well equipped foyer, handsomely dec orated with especially designed elec tric fixtures and brackets. The main auditorium of the theater, together with the balcony seats 700 people, is one of a most handsome de sign. The walls and main ceiling are elaborately decorated in beams with high relief ornamentations and beau tiful dentals, supported on large pil asters extending down to the floor of the main auditorium. The Decoration Scheme. The entire effect being decorated ' in n wonderfully devised scheme of old ivories, punctured with panels of old rose and neutral blues. The lighting scheme throughout the theater is en tirely indirect, no bulbs or globes showing to the audience, in this way a soft and effulgent glow of light is evenly distributed over the house; this makes possible the acme of per fection of eye comfort and restful ness. The proscenium arch, measuring 30 feet by 22 feet, is one of excellent proportions to the remninder of the house, and is elaborately designed with beautiful and handsome mould ed center pieces and the architecture running around the same is of ex quisite modeling and decoration. The main balcony of Ihc theater is one of excellent proportions and shows per fect sitting from any scat. Risors are comparatively low so that easy access and egress is made possible. In this balcony and on either side of the house, will be placed a mother's room and men's room, with glass sides so that the patrons can have the care of the children and still be convenient BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES WE CAN SELL YOUR BUSINESS or exchange your farm for apart ment house, store, hotel, or for cash.
