Temporary Structure.

"A temporary structure is to baj erected first," said an official, "so that we can be quite certain that| the appearance of the Abbey will not be damaged in any way.

"We hope to make the building, picturesque as It will be, as incon- spicuous as possible.

"It will, therefore, be only 20ft. high, 30ft. long, and about 25ft. wide, and almost hidden from view on all sides.

"St. Margaret's Church will screen it entirely from the north, a group of trees will almost hide it from the Houses of Parliament side, the Abbey will cover it en- tirely from the south side, and the North Transept, which will pro- trude farther than the sacristy, will almost hide it from the Victoriu-atreel side."
