went down before him, says he is !
certainly the conner of the club.
Every couple playing in yesterdays
match had its accompanying gallery |
and there were ladies following each |
match.
Gayly gowned ladies made the |
porch and social room attractive yes

ping their tea at the little tables |
scattered about
One of the directors states that the
Country club has within its ranks a |
glee club, a quartet and a mandolin |
club, besides many individual per
formers so that the future smokers
will never be at loss for social and
entertaining numbers.
]. P. Sexton got out too late to Sc
cure partner for yesterdays match |
and played around alone, He made |
one drive of between 200 and $50 |
yards and several others sent the |

Over fifty members enjoyed the |
privilege of the golf course at some
time yesterday.
