CLUB IS
RESORT Of UNUSUAL
CHARM To VISITORS

Lying on the southern slope or
Comeback mountain, with the wa
ters of the Arizona canal flowing
softly through its broad orange
and olive groves, lies Inglaside club.
1t is the spot of which Sir Gilbert
Parker, the famous author. wrote:
In the olive and orange groves with
| which your homelike hostel is sur
rounded one forgets that the world
Is a place Of care, and believes that
peace Is the lot of man.
Ingleside club is not the ordinary
winter resort. Everything is ar
ranged for the rest and convenience
of the guests and relief from all
formality of dress is counted one
Of the chief attractions. Outing
clothes are worn at all times. The
club house is set down in a flower
ing, well cared for garden, with cot
tages surrounding it which the guest
may occupy If desired, though rooms
are provided in the main building.
The dining room is run on the Amer
lean plan and the cuisine is Of the
highest order. The table is sup
piled with the best products of a
semi-tropical market, though much
dens, vegetables, fruits, etc. A poul-
try farm maintained by the club sup
plies fresh eggs and poultry, and a
never failing supply of high grade
milk comes from its own dairy of
thoroughbred Guernsey and Jersey
cows.
The rooms are arranged for the
comfort Of the occupants, being large
and airy, and with windows which
afford the advantages of outdoor
sleeping. The furnishings are cheer
ful and comfortable, the main lobby
and living rooms having great open
fireplaces in which swapping log fires
make homelike warmth on chilly
evenings. Electric heaters are sup
Piled for all other rooms. including
the cottages, These cottages vary
in size. all having outside rooms
which are cheerfully furnished and
with conveniently arranged bath fa-
cilities. Guests of the cottages take
their meals in the club dining room.
Besides the immediate club ground
there are 80 acres in oranges and 20
In olives, comprising the Oldest of
their kind in Arizona. The tract
contains 500 acres in all.
Picntcing and camping trips fur
nish one source OF enjoyment, with
side trips to points of interest un-
der the care of experienced guides
who know the country and make In
teresting story tellers around eve-
ming campfires.
Tennis courts and croquet courts
provide entertainment for lovers of
this sport and the old horseshoe
pitching place down by the barn is
seldom overlooked or vacant for
long
And OF course there is golf for
the golf enthusiast over a course
which is the most uniquely situated
IN the country. II lies along the
Arizona canal and in the shadow
or Old Comeback. In the fore
ground lie orange and olive groves
and to the east rises the Superstiti-
ton mountains. To the north is seen
Red Mount Mcdowell and in the
dim distance the Blue Tinted Four
Peaks rise to an altitude of over 10 |
600 feet. 1t is scene of enehant- |
ment and unforgettable beauty. The |
course is under the care of one of |
the leading professional golfers of
America.
On the broad lawns beneath the |
orange trees afternoon tea is served /
each day. There are shady hooks |
Tor the book lover, secluded ham
mocks where one may steal away |
and while away whole hours reading
or contemplating the ever changing |
variety of desert life. Those seeking
relef from the noises and excite
ment or the city could not choose
better place in which to relax.
