LIC LEDGER- -PHILADELPHIA. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1870

Returning summer hosts find 1t dif-
ficult to believe that part of the
beachfront was washed out by the ter
rife storms Of the last winter and that
the Boardwalk was reduced TO kindIing
wood and that several cottages were
threatened with demolition. Quick work
on tho part Of the municipal authorities
has made the boroughs recovery from
the storm damage rapid, and new
boardwalk Of artistic design and un'
questioned stability has supplanted the
old ono These are only a few Of the
many notable improvements which have
been made at Bay Head. The streets
have been materially improved, the
water and sewerage systems extended
and other public development got under
way.
The social activities in the hotels and
cottage colony as we'll as at the yacht
club are reaching the midsummer peak.
Within the next week or two the weekly
bridge lunchcous at the yacht club will
b. resumed under committee Of women
now being formed to take charge Of the
social dongs there. Many other events
Of Importance will be held at the club
house and tho Bluffs Hotel will again
become the scene Of more elaborate
events.
Those Of the summer colony who are
partial to golf are contemplating the
acquisition Of suitable tract Of land
near Bay Head for golf course. At
the present time the Bay Head enthusi-
asts use the links Of the Point Pleasant
and Spring Lake clubs. and the idea Of
building n local course Is being warmly
received among the cottage folk.

WHITE FOLKS sQUABBLES.

The management Of the Westmoro.
land Club of this city backed by q
majority OF the latter-day club
management is now attempting the
impossible task Of having oil and
Hator mix, OF having two discordant
anc antagonistic clements combine
In one organization, forgetful OF the
fact that tho lack of harmony and
team work will defeat the very pur
pose for which the union Of the two
clubs is to be consuAamated. 1t
will also upset the calculations upon
which the financial statistics were
based and render u0eless the final
totals upon which the successful ap
peal has been made 10 tho majority
of the electorate.
In passing. it may be we'll to re-
r:ark that the westMoreland Club
was founded for the "F. T.. VS. OF
Virginia, the big fish" the financial
solons and the brainy leaders in
business. The Commonwealth Club
was founded for the "miadlcenders,"
the clerks, men OF moderate means
and for tho masses. Social lines pro
vailed in both organizations and mon
mutually agreeable to each other,
both social and otherwise figured
largely in the campaign for member
ship. But how can union Of tho
WCstmoreland Club md the Com.
monwealth Club be brought about
without split in the former, even
though the name. "Westmorclaa,d
Club" be retained?
We shall watch with interest tho
result of the advancement Indicating
as it does the advancement Of the

the electorate, the breaking down of

As hey were all uniting in aSsail

that he had sent out to Chicago an
