LINE OF MARCH 1$ MAPPED OUT Traffic Plans Outlined for Visitors, “Traffic” plans have been com- | pleted for the “open house” and in- j spection of the new Scottish Rite j cathedral by members of the Master j Masons not members of the Rite, j every night next week. A “line of march” taking In the principal rooms of the building has j been mapped out by the inspection j committee, of which George F. j Schreiber is the chairman and IVJar- j shall T. Levey, the vice-chairman ! The visitors will be conducted over the “route” in something like military formation, in groups of about twenty-five. At the head of each group will be a member of the committee to lead the wav and another member will bring up the rear. In the various rooms and along the route, “lecturers” will be stationed to explain the visitors the leading points of interest. The route covers about half a mile. It is planned that while the visitors are passing through the j auditorium, there will be musical! numbers on the grand pipe organ. Admission to the cathedral w T ill be through the Meridian street entrance.

PETTIS PLACES FURNISHINGS IN NEW CATHEDRAL Elaborate Carved Table from Belgium One of Show Pieces. Most of the vari-colored costly draperies and furniture that adorn the new Scottish Rite cathedral were furnished by the Pettis Dry Goods Company, with the advice of George Schreiber, architect of building. One of the most elaborate pieces of furniture is the beautifully carved table in the lounge room. This was imported from Belgium, at a cost of $2,000. as were also six highly embellished chairs which match the variegated trimmings of the room. The floor of the lounge is covered with oriental rugs, all designed by Schreiber and furnished by Pettis. Carpets in the building were brought from eastern cities of the United States, and were selected especially to match the other decorations of the cathedral. In the auditorium there is a black carpet figured with beautiful emblematic designs of the order of Scottish Rite. Richly colored draperies in the ballroom, lounge and lobby all were bought carefully and hung by Pettis. Many are of velour and done in colors to agree with the fine toned woodwork of the interior. Draperies in the library and directors’ room are of super-quality damask, and in the distinguished guests and thirtythird degree rooms they are of artistically decorated velour. Some of the most beautiful furniture in the building is to be found in the ladies’ parlors, all especially prepared through Pettis. Coverings

on the furniture are green and gold, blending harmoniously with the light ornamentations on the walls. In the directors’ room a long table of walnut, around which are carved chairs Upholstered in leather. On the back of each Is a double eagle design, in which is set the thirtysecond degree emblem of the order. Much time was spent by the architect and Pettis representatives in designing the interior furniture and draperies. The efficiency of their work is evidenced by the fact that it is all such a type as to perfectly set off the interior of this wonderful building. BURDSAL PAINT USED Endless Array of Colors Shown in New Cathedral. Burdsal paint was selected by Henry Behrens, interior.decorator of the cathedral, for all the different toned wall decorations. An endless array of colors and paints to match the various and select furnishings ■was chosen carefully and furnished by Burdsal. Gold is the best conductor of heat, but it is second as a conductor of electricity to copper.
