plications for a charter for clubs or
private associations, the purpose of
which is to MAINTAIN a social resort
in which liquors and cigars are kept
for the use OF the members. Two
such applications have cen received
and the legality of granting a charter
being in doubt. Attorney General Mil
Ter was asked for and has rendered an
opinion as follows:
You have submitted to this office
the articles OF incorporation Of the
-- association. from which 1t
appears that the purpose Of this as
ISOLATION Is to provide a meeting
place for members of the association
where they may keep and have their
liquors. cigars and refreshments. We

Of the disclosure made by the ar
~ticles.
Section 41eS. r. c. 1905. is to the
effect hat private corporations may
be formed for any purpose for which
individuals may lawfully associate
themselves together. Section 9S77
provides that every person who shall

keeping or maintaining any club room
or other place in which any intoNicat-
ing liquors is received or kept for the
purpose of use, gift. barter or sale,
ETC., shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
The purpose of the association ask

to maintain a club Dom such as is
prohibited expressly by the section
referred to. In other words, the pur-
