PINES THEATRE
HOUGHTON LAKE
OPENSJAY 22
Popular  Resort  Offers
Unique New Movie
House
"'The Pines," a modern 500-seat
theater of unique rustic design to
blend with tlie natural beauty of
its forest and lake surroundings, will
open at Houghton Lake Thursday,
May 22. The new theater is on U. S.
highway No. 27, a mile and a half east
of Houghton Lake Heights, adjoining
the Pine View golf course. It is the
principal new feature of this popular
lake resort's many new attractions
for  1941 summer visitors.
Designed by Howard Crane, well
known Detroit architect, "The Pines'
is built of huge natural logs and
granite. It combines the picturesque
features of a luxurious Swiss chalet
and the ruggedness of a north woods
hunting lodge.
The entrance to the spacious auditorium is decorated to simulate the
interior of a sportsman's cabin.
Beautifully mounted pelts and heads
of nearly every well known game bird
and animal in North America flank a
14-foot granite fire place. Colorful
murals of Northern Michigan's hunting and fishing scenes adorn the high
log walls.
A host of facilities for comfort are
embodied in the theater, to make this
lake shore showplace comparable to
the newest metropolitan picture
places. Comfortable body-form chairs
with rubber foam seats are staggered
to afford unobstructed view of the
stage and screen from all parts of the
auditorium. The theatre is scientifically air-conditioned to maintain even,
healthful temperatures tha year-
round.
For the hayfever sufferers there is
a "de-pollenizer" which automatically
cliases pollen from the auditorium
and -germicidal lamps are installed to
free the atmosphere of flying fungus
growths. The grounds are charmingly landscaped with native Michigan
trees, and shrubs flanking" attractive
driveway approaches' and a. large
parking lot...   ..-''.
"The Pines" was constructed by
Seiter Bros. Construction Co., of
Clare. It is owned and operated by
W. J. and George Olson, pioneer Northern Michigan showmen, who now
operate theaters in Clare, Grayling,
Gaylord and West Branch.
A picture of the new theatre will
be found on the first page of the

men of the army and navy. *
Wherever there is an army camp,
naval station or hospital for men of
the armed forces, there also is the

assured that -military authorities and
the Red Cross "will exert every effort
to give practical help to the men in
service in ironing 'out his personal
and family problems. The Red Cross
is the .Congressionally established
and officially recognized agency for
assisting" the military authorities in
providing such relief. Its far-flung,
closely knit organization of chapters
and field directors, all working together and experienced in this field
makes possible a speedy, efficient
and friendly service;
The Red Cross takes a special interest in the service men who are ill.

the work of the Red Cross Gray
