The design will be imposing and the facde is to be carried up in brick, with cement facings. Two large bay windows will be on the upper floor, with a shield in the centre. The ground floor space will be divided into a library and reading room for the general public, and the upper floor will be arranged for the use of the Returned Soldiers` Association. Mr. A. Lanyon Clark has been appointed as the architect and he is now engaged in preparing the working drawings.
