The New Theater Building.
(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

controlled by an intake fan of great
proportions, the fresh air being taken
from the greatest height of the build
ing and blown into the plenum cham

fans are removing the foul air out
through exhaust ducts. The air is at
all times in constant circulation,
thereby preventing the air from be

Asks for Chiefs' Pictures
George B. Fraser of Portland has
written a letter to Chief of Police Lou
Ruyburn asking for picture? of him
self and Fire Chief Mackey for pub
lication in the Shooter, a sportsmen's
puper, published in Baltimore, Md.
Mr. Fraser believes that the unique
challenge made by the La Grande
chiefs to the chiefs of ny city in the
world will give La Grande some good
clean advertising.
An Australian has invented a ni-o-
ces for irrigating, aerating and fertil
izing soil by perforated pipes laid in
it, thereby avoiding waste.
Prefers Chamberlain's.
"In the course of a conversation
with Chamberlain Medicine Co.'s rep
resentative today, we had occasion to
discuss in a general way the merits of
their different preparations. At his
suggestion I take pleasure in express
ing my estimation of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. I have a family of
six children and have used this rem
edy in my home for years. I consider
it the only cough remedy on the mar
ket, as I have tried nearly all kinds."
