Add Ventilating System
The new ventilating system was installed at a cost of $1,020. There are two suction and exhaust fans and a number of smaller fans.

The claim is now made for the Garden theatre that it is one of the most modern and beautifully appointed in the state — a feat accomplished at an expense of $12,000 and a thing that is thoroughly appreciated by the city's theatre patrons as the throngs that gathered in front of the box office for the first show testified.

What will probably take its place among the largest remodeling .jobs of the season is the improvements being made to the Plaza theatre, Detroit, Michigan. The entire work will entail an outlay of $75,000 and when the task is completed the Plaza will be a virtually new theatre in every respect.
A prominent feature on the program is the installation of a an entire new front to the theatre. In conjunction with this the building will be enlarged by two stores, five offices, and a bowling alley in the basement.
A Kimball organ has been purchased at a cost of $25,000. New scenery has also been contracted for from the Twin City Scenery Company. The theatre will also boast a new Wayne generator set.
The remodeling also includes many improvements to the interior of the theatre. It is expected that the work will be completed and the house opened some time in October.
