Monday and Tuesday the interested crowds were only slightly smaller. Besides the attractive entrance hall- way, the tea room with its great fire- place and cosy lounge, the apartments on the second, fourth and seventh floors were on display. Guides were on hand to conduct the visitors about and explain the numerous features of the hostelry. This eight-story brick building is en- tirely Colonial from the southern Colonial porch to the last bit of furni- ture in the individual apartment. It was designed by P. A. Danielson, Ev- anston architect, and the interior decorating was done by his wife, an instructor in the Evanston Academy of Fine Arts. In it are combined the most modern hotel service equipment and all that goes to make up the charm of the old time houses. The furniture in the in- dividual apartments has been chosen in accord with the Colonial style and the entrance hallway, lounge and tea room are also furnished with authentic things. The lounge, the entrance hallway, the tea room and the apartments are provided with prints in keeping with the style of the building. Silhouettes and Godey prints are used in the apartments, etchings in the lounge and hunting prints in the entrance and the tea room. : In the entrance hallway hangs a ser- ies of six colorful Bachelor Hall hunt- ing prints, showing different phases of the hunt. In addition there is a large print, "The Earl of Derby's Stag Sisters of St. Francis Honor Doctors at Dinner A company of 75 doctors and in- ternes of St. Francis' hospital was en- tertained by the Sisters of St. Francis at a banquet last week Wednesday evening, an annual occasion to honor the hospital staff.
