The annual meeting of the Scranton
Country club will be held this after
noon at 4.30. A full attendance is de-
sired. Following this meeting tea will
be served by the house and entertain
ment committees. In the evening the
governors will meet for organization
when officers will be elected.
1t is intended to have these informal
Saturday afternoon teas every week
during the season, and perhaps the ex-
ception of the extremely heated term
in July or August. when so many are
out of town, and it is hoped that the
club members will indicate their inter-
est in this social feature by adding
their presence on all these pleasant oc-
casions. 1t is so delightful out there
in the quet seclusion of forest and hill
side that the wonder is that the men,
bers do not swarm over the links and
up the lovely lawn at all hours Of the
day. Such beauty and congeniality of
surroundings within fifteen minutes
ride of the central city surely cannot
be appreciated too much. The Coun-
try clubbite is certain to meet pleasant
people at this charming spot and can
not fail to go away refreshed and at
peace with the world even if his game
of golf happened to be rather unsatis-
factory. The great difficulty with the
Scranton member is that he is so busy
and life is so short and it Is always
tomorrow that he is to be blest-to be
happy-anG never today. Such a pity
At the Country club this afternoon q
match will be played between the first
and second teams, TO determine who
shall compose the team to play in the
contests this season. 1t is probable
that all new members of the club will
enter. and it will be a most interestine
match. Also this afternoon there viii,
be a "kickers' handicap" which is a
novel feature in connection with golf.
