Never IN its history was the Newly rk Athletic
Club in a sounder, more vigorous and more
prosperous condition than ii is to-day. It's beyond
initiation fee and Its dues are not high and may be
met from a modest income Notwithstanding this
fact. other similar organization offers SO many
attractions and privileges You may say with alb
solute confidence that every obligation of the club
will be met and tint holder of one Of its obliga-
tons need have moments solicitude.
Regarding the purely athletic end Of the club, we
shall continue the same line have always tried
and fou I'D satisfactory. We have no idea of up
setting traditional athletics We merely insist, as
we have always done, that athletes must con-
duct themselves in a becoming such club,
and that they must pay their dues the same as any
other members. We have no idea of dropping or
curtailing athletics in any way. We have no use
for the class of athletes who win honors at college
and then enter athletic club merely with the
idea Of getting what financial aid they get out
of that club. We have always fought for pure
athletics and will continue to do We will

DOOR RIDING sEAsoN-woRK FOR CYCLE
PATHs-NoTEs AND COMMENTS.
The snowstorm has put stop temporarily to
local cycling Still. the chances are that few of
the enthusiastic will be the roads to-
day for It is not so difficult to ride bicycle over
the snow as some people seem to think The only
thing avoid in riding in weather of this sort is
TO be careful In crossing over cobblestones where
the has been partly removed or In riding over
tracks. The riders and those interested in the
trade hope that the last vestige of winter will
have disappeared by next Sunday. when with
fine weather and good roads the outdoor riding
season promises to begin with a boom. There is no
denying the fact that the general interest In wheel
ing is much greater at present than was the case
at this time last year. 1t is shown only in the
trade but among the clubs. The captains of the
clubs planning for club runs and tours with
scheme of the local officials of the League of
American Wheelmen to have a weekly run right

mapped out, and the experienced pathfinders IN

In speaking about cycle paths vice-President
Choat of the League of American Wheelmen says:
1t has been recognized by the league that in
order to attain the best results for wheelmen the
of wagon roads which have in the past been ac-
corded its main solictude. and more attention to
cycle path construction. 1t has been demonstrated
that the wagon road Improvement is usually made
for greater lesser distances out of the towns
and cities, such improved roads radiating from
these centres much the spOkes of wagon do
from the hub. Thus Ii will be that these i'm
provements of comparatively little value to the
wheelman because after following them for a short
distance he finds that they dwinde into a bad
road or mere trail. The same energy that the
league has devoted to good road cultivation

ton cycle paths traverSng long stretches of bad
road will have no doubt, result in rapid
tension of such paths everywhere. This does not
mean, of course. that the league relinquishes its
labors in aid of good road construction but rather
that II proposes to cultivate specially the consruc-
ton of cycle paths.
