COUNTRY CLUB
To CELEBRATE
lST BIRTHDAY
On January 18th This Popular
Organization Will Observe
Its First Annual Celebration
In a Fitting Manner.

The Warren District Country club
will be one year old on the seven
teenth of next month. Its members
expect to give the organization
birthday party that night and take
part in the celebration. They don't
do things by halves and on that date
everyone will doubtless be en- hand
and take a part in the jollificatiOn.
This year will round out one of re-
markable activity and success in club
circles. 1t has been great success
and has made good in every way.
This is largely due to the vigorous
manner in which the committees have
taken hold of their work and carried
out in detail everything which has
been delegated to them. 1t will be
year ago that meeting was called at
the Copper Queen hotel, at which over
hundred OF the residents Of Bisbee
attended. The matter of the Warren
District Country club was discussed at
length and the following committee
was enthusiastically elected: Colonel
l.. w. Powell, Walter Douglas, NJ. ].
Cunningham, ]. T. Hood, Frank P.
Harrington, George H. Neale, w. H.
Brophy and Fred Suffer. Colonel
Powell was elected the president )of
, the organization.
1t has been the pleasure of the COM
mittee to make this one of the popu-
lar places for the people of Bisbee.
7 Everything which can be done for
the amusement of the members has
been done, and every one is en-
| thusiGst!c in their praises of the work
! of the committee. Tennis, golf, shoot
ing and other pastimes have been en-
J joyed during the past year to the
great pleasure of all its membership.
| Colonel Powell has extended the
street car to the club grounds. He
| has also decided the property to the
club where the club house stands, and
has leased the remaining property of
/ the grounds to the club for a period
/ of twenty-five years. He state that
| when he moves to Warren he will
make the club house his headquarters
and hopes to see two more rooms ad-
ded to the building, one large one for
the ladies reception room and a
billiard and pool room.
In his initial letter to the members
Of the club the president stated what
has been the handspring of the sue
I
that no clique or cliques shall doni-
nate the club, as the club was or
ganized for the benefit of the residents
of the Warren district. And so it has
been. It is calculated to be entirely
| Democratic, and every one is expected
to make himself at home The only
requisite demanded by the organ'za-
ton is that any person of good mora
character, may become a member OF
this club, upon election by the board
OF directors" During the past year
$4,000 has been spent upon this
property, and the results speak fol
themselves.
Just now the annual election is at
tracing the attention of the member
ship. The following have been nam
ed for the consideration of the voters
