 At a meeting of the Harpiony Club rooms on Alabama street. a committee was appointed to select a site and 10 report back te the club the advisability of that body buying q lot and erecting a permanent home and one from which the club could derive some revenue.
 The club has a membership of. sixty four and out of this number thers were present at the meeting thirty five. The report of the committee was lis. and the steps that have so far been taken were ratified
 Many sites were looked at and finally the lot on Lauderdale street between Alabama and Selma and which is close to both the carnerie Library and the court house. was selacte5. The lo' js owned by Jud Breslin and the commit tee secured an option upon 1t. Now that the report of the committee has been ratified. the purchase price of h.. lot. $7 800 will bc paid, ana it will be- come the property of the Harmony Club.
 While the plans for the new club house have not yet been drawn, Presl- dent Schuster said today that the building would he . three story one. The bottom story will he divided into four stores with fronting of twenty five feet each. This will make four very desirable stores from which the club will derive a revenues each mont The two upper stories of the building will be devoted to the uses of the club.
 The total cost of the building when 1t has been completed including the price paid for the lot and the furnish ings. will be about s35,000. It will be brick structure with the most mod ern Improvements, throughout and when completed will be a credit both to the city and to the club. The front Of the building which will be on I.auderdale street will be of stone and will have most attractive appearance.
 President Schuster shis morning said that there would he 50 trouble in rais- ing the amount. The thirty-fve mem bers of the club who were at the meet. ing Thursday night when the report of the committee was adopted all signi- fled their willingness and intentions of taking some of the bonds of the club with which the money will be raised to erect the club house. Those mem- bers who were not present will take a sufficient amount of the bonds to as- sure the erection of the building.
