The Colony Club.

So recently did the Colony Club be-
gin its existence In the attractive build.
ing designed for 1t by the late STAN.
FORD WHITE that Its present determine
tion to seek other quarters may be re-
garded as an evidence Of the rapidity
with which New York neighborhoods
change. II seemed when the club
opened Its doors few years ago us II
that restful looking house would long
remain Its peaceful shelter. Now the
club Is going elsewhere.
Whether or not the new house shall
be In a central part Of the city or in a
less accessible neighborhood with the
increased space possible under such
conditions Is the question on which
the Colony Club members are at pres.
ent divided. The problem OF a site
differs from that by which mans
club decides such questions The tinan.
cial success Of the Colony Club-and
that Is an important factor In met.
rOpolltan club life to-day-depends
largely on It's accessibility. IT Is not
used ms the average mans club In this
city is. only in the afternoon and
evening. It's facilities are most In de-.
mand during the daytime. The pros
poet OF removal to n less accessible
site even with the advantage Of greatcr
space seems inadvisahle to some mem
beers. They believe that any location
which will make visit 10 the club
require special journey is undesir-
able.
That the direction must inevitably be
northward Is certain. In the discus
sion Of the plan to move and the new
site there is nothing SO surprising as
that n club should find II necessary so
soon To abandon so fine n home and a
quarter which seemed only few years
ago perfectly suited 10 its purposes.
But perhaps there il no other course
for a New York club.
