night at the inn. The affair is ar
ranged for members and their
friends and marks the opening of
the seasons weekly dancing par
ties. The Community club has Sc
cured the exclusive privileges of
the upper floor of the Tower inn.

dancing party for members will be
held this week at the club rooms
as usual, and thereafter, begin
ming June Z, will be held at the
Watch Tower, for members only.

ly to the rules laid down for his
guidance by the members at the
last membership meeting, in the
issuance of guest cards for bona
fide guests of members. Cards
must be secured from him by the
members for their guests, and at
the club rooms, as no cards can
be issued to non-members or at the
Watch Tower.
The ever increasing membership
of the club, and popularity of the
dances, made it apparent the ex-
ecutive board of the club and Mr..
Kncelk of the war camp commun-
ity service, some weeks ago. that
with the advent of warm weather
some cooler place than the club
house should be secured, that the
dancing parties might be contin
ued at least once a week.
Several places were considered,
but the excellent condition of the
floor at the inn, the fact that it is
by far the coolest floor IN the vi
cinity, and the assurance of Mr..
Stevenson that adequate car ser
vice would be provided, the ar
engagements as above stated seem !
ed the most desirable.
The Wednesday evening dances
at the club house will continue for |
the members as long as justified |
by their attendance. The Com |
munity club Of Rock Island looks |
forward to an enjoyable summer. !
Picnic privileges have also been |
provided for at the Watch Tower.
