ABOUT COUNTRY CLUBS
Remarkable Increase in Number
About New York.

May has lost its characteristic flavor
as moving day in the city, but it has
gained something infinitely better in
that II marks the opening up of cOun-
try life and country club sports. True,
it is hard to set an exact time for this
annual return to the enjoyments of ma
ture, for old conditions have been so
radically reversed that the question to-
day is not so much that of going to the
country as of coming to the city for a
winters stay.
People leave town earlier than they
used to and stay later. That attractive

and Westminster may now be seen in
scores of localities within easy reach
ing distance by rail. automobile or troll
ley from New York. The methods may
be slightly different but the results are
practically the same. an enlargement
Of social, sporting and recreative life.
But Notwithstanding the fact that
many out of town clubs now keep open
house all the year round and that hum
dreds of former city residents remain
loyal to nature winter and summer, the
month of May is really the opening of
energetic country club life. Squash,
racQuets and indoor tennis, that have
contributed to the enjoyment Of the
Tuxedo, Lakewood, Ardsley, Ba1tusrol
and other suburban club colonies, give
way to the greater freedom OF lawn
tennis, the vigorous swinging of golf
clubs over Verdant greens, automobile
touring over roads free from snow and
vexatious mudholes. while those who
go in for hunting and the more expen-
sive Iuxuries of polo and road coaching
prepare for a vigorous campaign.
Country Life Revolutionized.
Country life has been almost revOlu-
tionized within the last ten years.
Where once one club was found there
are now ten or twenty. Golf, of course.
has given a wonderful impetus to the
DEVELOPMENT of country club activity.
and while the tournament fever is not
so much in evidence as in the early
DAYS of the game, there are probably
more persons playing today than ever
before in America. Club committees of
all kinds have been busy within the
last two or three weeks arranging
schedules of events for the year. They
present a bewfldering variety. for to SO
great an extent has the country club
idea grown that It is possible to find
every popular sport hourishing within
the Immediate vicinity Of New York. In
fact if anything worth playing has
been omitted, that is necessary 10

LOG RAFT TO CROSS OCEAN.

Over to Shanghai.
San Francisco, June PA log raft
containing 100000 feet of spars ane
piling is to be towed across the Pacific
to Shanghai during the summer.
This is the gigantic plan OF new
company just organized under the laws
of British Columbia, and which is to
be branch of a raft company of this
city. The latter concern is said to have
been very successful in rafting lumber
from northern points to San Francisco.
Except for an accident to the first one
or two, which broke loose, all the huge
booms have been brought safely to port.
But they are, nevertheless, looked upon
with considerable fear by seafaring men
and shipowners, who regard them as
positive menaces which should be pro-
hibited from the seas.
The new boom, which will be the larg-
est ever constructed, viii be towed by
one or more of the most powerful tug
boats of San Francisco, accompanied BY
a collier or oil steamship with fuel for
the tugs.
