" All-Gas"" Kitchens alone meet the de- .— ■ mand in this modern .. I institution. ALL GAS KITCHENS The "Hotel Stevens," recently finished, cost twenty-seven million dollars to build, and is a monument to the hotel genius of the Stevens family. It has three thousand rooms. It has the largest ballroom in the world, with' checking facilities for the wraps of three thousand people. It has a circulating library of twenty-five thousand volumes. If a guest should remain in the Hotel long enough, eight years would pass before he slept in every room. Some idea of the Kitchen requirements can be formed when it is realised that the dining rooms provide for seating 5,000 diners at a time. THE KITCHEN EQUIPMENT OF THIS VAST MODERN HOTEL IS GAS FIRED THROUGHOUT. "We decided on Gas after careful inquiry" "We called upon the best talent in the country to assist us in our kitchen) planning," said Ernest J. Stevens, Vice-President and General Manager of the Hotel Stevens, Chicago. ''The net result is that we elected to employ Gas as our fuel, for the simple reason that our experience and investigations all pointed to its EFFICIENCY and ECONOMY. "Taking into consideration first cost of fuel, the cost of maintenance and upkeep; bearing in mind also the matter of reliability and instantaneous supply of necessary heat—WE DECIDED ON GAS.' 6 Among Institutions using Gas exclusively in the Kitchen are: The "HOTEL SOVEREIGN," Chicago, to which the Prince of Wales made a recent special visit. The NEW PALMER HOUSE, with its Banquet Halls, seating three thousand people, costing seventeen million dollars to build. The SEARS-ROEBUCK RESTAURANT COY.—feeding 6,000 people every day. The NEW UNION RAILWAY STATION. Many miles were travelled for inspection of notable installations employing Gas and other fuels. The net result was that gas-fired appliances were installed throughout in all Kitchens and Grills. The Restaurant Lunch Rooms, etc., of this Station, will seat 950 people. The NEW HOME OF THE UNION LEAGUE CLUB, a six-storied building, situated 69 West Jackson Boulevarde, seats fifteen hundred diners per day. The building cost six million dollars. Mr. Fee, the Manager of this Club, scoured the country for information on cooking. He visited the kitchens of the New Penn Athletic Union League of Philadelphia, The Yale, Athletic, University and Harvard Clubs of New York, The New Buffalo Athletic Club/and others. He also personally inspected the most modern new hotels, including the Ritz-Carlton, Atlantic City, Benjamin Franklin, Philadelphia, H. Roosevelt, New York, Mayflower, Washington, D.C., and Book Cadillac, Detroit. After all counts were in, Mr. Fee decided to use Gas for cooking. His own,words are:—"TO ACCOMPLISH THE COOKDXG EFFICD3NCY REQUISITE FOR SUCH A CLUB AS THE UNION LEAGUE CLUB OF CHICAGO, YOU CAN'T DO BETTER THAN EMPLOY GAS-FIRED UNITS FOR ECONOMICAL, PRACTICAL AND SUCCESSFUL RESULTS." Every householder in Christchurch can afford a Gas Cooker to-day can enjoy the undeniable advantages of the modern Gas Cooker. Why ?
