1. An arched island ceiling system comprising a pair of arcuate frame members, metal panels, and clips for supporting the panels on the frame members, the frame members having a generally rectangular cross-section, the clips being formed of a sheet metal and having a saddle configuration including a seat and legs depending from opposite sides of the seat and being proportioned to straddle the frame member, lower ends of the legs having feet engageable with the underside of inwardly extending flanges of sides of the metal panels; wherein the seat is elongated and has a central hole for receiving a screw; and two feet extend in opposite directions away from each other from lower ends of each of the respective legs;an underside of the seat rests on an upper face of the frame member and;wherein the upper face of the frame member includes a central screw receiving slot extending lengthwise of the frame. 2. A system as set forth in claim 1, wherein said saddle clip has indicia to guide a technician in changing the length of the saddle by trimming portions thereof from said saddle. 3. A system as set forth in claim 2, wherein said indicia are steps in the transverse width of the saddle seat. 4. A system as set forth in claim 1, wherein said frame members are extruded aluminum. 5. A system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the frame members have an open slot at a lower face bounded by opposed flanges. 6. A system as set forth in claim 4, wherein the hole is configured for receiving a self-tapping screw threaded into said receiving slot. 7. A system as set forth in claim 1, wherein a hanger bracket is attached to the upper face of the frame member. 8. A system as set forth in claim 7, wherein the hanger bracket has preformed holes for receiving multiple screws for attachment to said frame members. 9. A system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the saddle is capable of being used in one of two orientations on a frame member. 10. An arcuate island ceiling comprising a pair of parallel frame members having the same curvature in a respective vertical plane, a plurality of rectangular panels supported by and under the frame members, the lengthwise dimension of the panels being perpendicular to the frame members, a plurality of clips attaching each panel to each frame member, each panel having a pan-shape with a main face and a sidewall on each of four edges, the sidewalls on two lengthwise edges having inturned flanges, the clips being assembled on the frame members and having feet engaging a lower side of the panel sidewall flanges, engagement between a clip and a respective frame member permitting the clip to be located at any selected position on the respective frame member whereby the panels of various widths and various panel spacing can be used with the frame members and clips; wherein the clips are formed of a sheet metal and have a saddle configuration including a seat and legs depending from opposite sides of the seat and being proportioned to overlie and straddle the frame members, and wherein said seat is elongated in a direction perpendicular to an imaginary line between the legs and has a central hole for receiving a screw; and two feet extend in opposite directions from lower ends of each of the respective legs and wherein the opposite directions run parallel to the length of the frame member. 11. An arcuate island ceiling as set forth in claim 10, wherein the frame members each have a continuous slot on an upper side that receives a screw assembled through a clip at a selected location along the frame member. 12. An arcuate island ceiling as set forth in claim 11, wherein the frame members each have an open slot on their lower faces.
