DOUGLAS COUNTRY
CLUB IS PUSHING
lpouglas InternationaI.l

Wkiie the Douglas Country clut
since its inception has filled the
wants of its members and taken its
place in the world of sports as well
as in the Douglas social world. the
directors of the club feel thu: even
more might be done in the future
than las been accomplished in the
past.
With this end in view. the direct
ors seek to get In closer touch with
the members. They ask each mem
Der 20 make known his wants and
desires so that If possible the club
may fulfill these. Hence the direct
ors are seeking for suggestions from
the members and have sent out the
following letter
Douglas. Ariz.. Feb. is, 1910.
TO members:
The Douglas County club has been
a success. but in your opinion is IL
accomplishing the purposes for which
it was founded. and Is it meeting
your expectations as a member? If
not, wherein would you change its
policy? How could it be made Of
more personal benefit ana afford you
more enjoyment?
1t is the aim Of the board of di-
rectors to make the club serve all
its members as far as possible but
the board is but seven out Of a mem
bership OF 1s0; necessarily our view
is limited
This letter asks you for your
ideas as to how the club can be made
more attractive; in other words. if you
were a director, what would you DO
TO make the club meet the demands
of its members?
The chief demand has been golf.
We have been highly successful in
developing interest in the game,
which has led to much healthful en-
joyment and the winning of contests
with neighboring clubs.
Socially the club has afforded its
members advantages that could not
otherwise have been enjoyed. Do
you think that the social features
should be made more prominent?
Have you any suggestions or criti-
cisms as TO the manner in which
the house department is run? Is the
service satisfactory?
The club is yours and it is the
aim and wish of your board of d.
rectors to make it of use and value
to you. 1t viii be great help if
you will address a letter TO us EN-
bodying your ideas. We want TO
hear from every member. Address
your communications to the Douglas
County club.
Cordially yours.

Fred Hotchkiss, the surveyor,
has been busy the past week with
a force of men surveying a pro-
posed reservoir site on the Smith
Fork This site will hold over H.,
600 acre feet of water and will fur
nish enough water for the whole

ing this survey made will hold a
meeting in the near future on the
advisability of building this reser-
voir and to devise ways and means.
providing they decide to go ahead.
Every water user in the Smith Fork
will be vitally interested in the
construction of this reservoir and
we believe that if they will all get
