are bath rooms, this provision being one of the most appreciated of the Club. While not connected directly with the operation of the Club, but yet associated in a sense, are the splendid tennis grounds situated just below the magnificent Club building. These grounds have lately been ex- tensively improved, and now offer the greatest conveniences to the devotees of the racquet.
 In the Club parlors, which are open only to the members, are the most luxurious appointments, includ- ing an assortment of chairs touches, etc., that is perhaps not to be dupli- cated in a similar institution in the state. Thousands of dollars have been reXpended in the furnishings of these parlops, which are universally ap- preciated by the members.
 Adjoining the Club parlors, on the upper floor, are the rooms which are utilized as a meeting place of the fraternal organizations of the town. Practically every evening of the week sees these rooms the scene of the gathering of some one of the socie ties fraterna1 of the town. The lodges meeting here are those of the Masons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Woodmen of the World, w OOOAtA SlIClS, d1Q II6UShcuS These meetings, with the many other features of the Club building which are for the pleasure of the people, serve to make the building the center of the towns activities along lines of social and literary instruction. Recent Additions to Service.
 Among the recent additions to the service of the Club are the installation
 of fully equipped departments in motion pictures and soda fountain service. Both departments are meet proving to be among the most des- irable features of the Club. The soda fountain service is under the direction of MT. McCauley, lately of Boston, Massachusetts, and is con- plete in every particular. Spacious rooms, those formerly used in con- nection with the theatrical depart ment, are occupied, and the service rendered is gratifying.
 The motion pictures are already largely patronized that many people are turned away because of lack of seating accommodations. At pres ent by far the most popular of the various entertainment features of the Club is the motion picture auditorium, the other rooms of the building be- ing almost deserted while the movies" are being shown. This large patron age is largely dependant upon the high quality of the pictures shown, the equipment, both machines and films, being of the best. The films are of the sixty day release service, and are shown in Morenci immedi- ately upon being produced at the Los Angeles studios and are thus received in the very best of condition, which is not always experienced in relation with the ordinary commercial film agencies. The seating capacity
 of the auditorium is three hundred, and this is proving inadequate to
 serve the attendance. This is one
 reason for the need of the proposed
 addition to the stage of the theatrical
 department, where the pictures are
 shown.
 With a membership of two hun
 dred and fifty, and with an average
 total daily attendance of more than
 five hundred, the provisions for gen. eral service are being taxed fully
 This appreciation on the part of the
 public is gratifying, and promises to
 be met with a gradual increase in
 service, the management being al- ways considering any measures that might be for the advancement of the
 Club, which promises to maintain it's position as one of the most desirable agencies of Morenci.
