SHADES VALLEY
CLUB IS FORMED
c,ub House and Links to Be
Built at Once
100 CHARTER MEMBERS
Nav Car Line WIFI Run Directly to
Grounds and Special Provision VIII
Re Made for Motorists and
Horseback Riders

The Shades Valley Country club project
;s now a certainty, a membership of LOG
having already signed the application 1or
the charter, which includes some OF the
hest men in the city, and the lists are
now closed.
Engineers and architects have been en-
gaged and instructed to go ahead with
the plans. A prominent golf expert will
bo here in a few weeks to lay off the golf
links.
The club will have strict regulations for
purposes of keeping the membership con-
fined to only the most desirable people. A
committee will issue formal invitations
10 those the club desires as members.
Until the clubhouse is under construcS
ton or completion it Is probable that no
ether persons will be invited to become
members. This club will own over 100
acres of the prettiest grounds in all
Snades valley, with Shades creek running
through it for half a mile, making pos
sible a pretty lake. The new Edgewood
car line is being built right into the
grounds and a beautiful driveway Will
be constructed from the Columbiana pike
into the club grounds.
The money in hand from the 100 charter
members is sufficient to build a handsome
clubhouse, and special care will be taken
in the plans for the needs of motorists and
horseback riders This will be welcomed
by the Birmingham Motor club, which
has no home of its own.
AS soon as a Typographical map of the
club grounds, which Is now being pre-
pared, is completed an 1s-hole golf course
will be laid off, thus bringing the BUSH
ness man within 20 minutes car ride of
one of the best golf courses in the south.
