Have Mere Than Forty Theeeand Rooma In Private Hemes at Their Disposal, Where Thoee Who Attend Can Be Lodged aa Conviently aa at a Hotel. Announcement by the government that a special low rate of one and a third fares for the round trip has been authorized for the celebration. Columbus, 0., June 20 to July 13. has tremendously increased the interest in that event and advanced manifold the inquiries and registrations coming from all parts of the United States. At headquarters the other day a single mail brought cash registrations from 14 separate states and South America. The low rate has increased for the special committees, which are responsible for housing the large influx of visitors now seen to be certain. Accommodations fall into three classes: First, the hotels, which have an average daily capacity of 6,000 visitors. The second field of accommodation will be in public buildings, which have bden specially fitted up for this sort of service for the celebration. These include the State School for the Blind, the State School for the Deaf, the large barracks which were provided at Ohio State university for the student army training corps, and other buildings of a similar nature held in reserve should the throng exceed •ven present generous expectations. The third line of convenience for the hospitality of Columbus is in the homes of the citisens themselves. More than 40,000 rooms have been listed with the housing committee, and these are card indexed by location, telephone number and best tn*ass of access. Visitors to the Celebration can be lodged as conveniently as a clerk at a hotel assigns a visitor to his room. In order that there might be no misunderstanding, Ulf committee in charge has a uniform rate for accommodation* in private dwellings./ The charge will be

MONSTER SCREEN AT METHODIST CENTENARY Special lantern Devised For Throwing Pictures. Finishing details are being placed on the arrangements for the erection of the largest screen for the projection of pictures ever built in the world. This is to be one of the features of the Methodist Centenary Celebration, to be held in Columbus, June 20 to July 13. This monster screen will have a surface for pictures 116x115 feet. The actual structure will be several feet larger in each direction. A special lantern has been successfully devised for throwing these tremendous pictures the necessary distance. The screen will be 250 feet from the nearest spectator and will be built to withstand" 40 pounds pressure to the square foot. The lantern which will project these pictures has already successfully thrown pictures on a screen in New York City across a distance of four and a half city blocks. According to Architect Harry C. Holbrook, the screen will be, in effect, three sides of a house. It is necessary to give it the foundations equivalent to a four-story building. In order that there may be as much salvage as possible after the screen has served its purpose, the picture face will be of fitted lumber, wAiob later will be treated with a whit* surface preparation. The estimated cost of this screen will be 38,000. The screen and the lantern will be used in showing the tens of thousands of views, made all over the world by the Methodist Missionary Survey, which has the finest collection of pictorial reviews anywhere in the world.
