I. This means all the holes and every
thing else and it's welcome news to the
membership Of 400, tried and true

they have been dreaming Of this day.
They have been kicking in with advice,
finances and registering impatience.
But the way things now shape up
the summer day mentioned above is the
promised fete.
Among others the lake hole will be
all set. The concrete bottom has been
laid and the water will shortly be al-
lowed to trickle in there. It's q two
shot hole. one up to the lake and the
other over--if you get It..

hers and bird houses placed therein.
The winged Inhabitants are expected to
be the foe OF all that moves and creeps
to the destruction Of the grasses. :,

soing forward on the course, Cedar

The latest is the sweeping veranda
