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.
