PUBLIC COMFORT STATIONS. 
(Continued from Page 71.) 
In Columbia Park the comfort station is 
a combination building, one portion for 
men and another portion for women, the 
two portions being separated by a shelter 
space which is covered with a roof, but 
open on two sides. The area of this shel- 
ter space is increased by a covered porch 
which extends the full length of the build- 
ing. 
The women’s room contains three clos- 
ets, a wash sink and a slop sink. The 
men’s room contains three closets, four 
urinals and a wash sink. All the closets 
and urinals are of the local vented type, 
connected into a system of ducts leading 
to the attic space, which in turn is venti- 
lated through louvred dormers. Two elec- 
tric fans are provided in connection with 
the ventilating system. The entire build- 
ing, including rooms, shelter and porch, has 
a floor of concrete with inlaid borders and 
patterns of brick. The walls are of red 
brick to a height of two and one-half feet 
above the ground, and frame covered with 
plaster and half-timber above. The roof is 
of shingles laid in thatched effect, rounded 
onto the verge boards, etc. The wood- 
work is stained brown and the plaster is 
left in its natural color.
