COUNTRY CLUB HOUSE TO

Before next January it is expected
that handsome club house will be
erected at the Punta Gorda Country
Club golf course, a considerable pOr-
tiOn of the money necessary having
been subscribed by number OF Win
eral with donations to the club. Re
Gently Mcssrs. Morrison, DeZayas,
Carrier and Freat have subscribed for
stock to the amount of 500, which
will be used to partly defray the eX-
penses of finishing and keeping up
the golf course.
Money is needed now to finish the
course, which, when this is done, will
be one Of the finest in South Florida
according to people who know about
such matters, and in order to raise
the money it is hoped that con-
siderable number of local people will
become members of the club by pay
Ing the yearly dues. In order to Sc
cure members, drive" will be or
ganized in the near future.
At a meeting of the club Monday
night, all the old officers, with the oX-

turned home much elated over the
condition of affairs found at Arcadia,
and greatly pleased that they Were
in full harmony with each other.
Captain Z. f. Damkohler, a promi-
nent good roads booster and citizen
of Fort Myers, was in Punta Gorda
Friday and exhibited a subscription
list bearing the names of several
prominent and wealthy Fort Myers
men who had subscribed $4,000 for
the purpose of building bridge
acrOs the Caloosahatchee at Fort My
ers as a link in the short route road.
He said that there was another pa
per being circulated and that he un-
derstOod that signers of this paper
had subscribed $4,000 One of the
subscribers, who agreed to take $25,-
600 worth of stock in the, proposed
bridge company, will subscribe an
other $4,000 if it becomes neces-
sary to insure success of the project.
Competent engineers have estimated
the cost OF the proposed bridge at
100000. A wooden bridge, 16 feet
wide in the clear, with concreted Bil-
ing is planned, and will be operated
as toll bridge. Mr.. Damkohler and
others believe that the bridge would
yield very handsome profit, and to
substantiate his belief points to the
immense profits made on the Crescent
beach bridge, in Lee county, and
other bridges that would not carry
as much traffic as the Caloosahatchee
bridge. Asked if he was soliciting
subscriptions, Mr.. Damkohler replied
that he was not, being sure that the
money could easily be raised in Lee.
county, but if any local people want
ed to subscribe there would be no
objection.

Following are two letters received

his letter in full and suggests that
an editorial that appeared in last

here is the first letter and one receiv-
ed later, just as near as possible to
set tHem in type as written by Mr.

to edit them this week. Comment on
the letters will be found on the edi-

the rest OF US regardless Of the fact
that he was once governor" It did

evening and met with them. The
Fort Myers delegation upon arrival
were taken to a hotel where they

The above figures after dcducting
the police fines from the total cost
shows a difference in the cost of
operating the town under the two
plans of $1171.43 in favor of the
manager plan.
The statement made by Clerk Rob
inson at the request of the Herald
shows the distribution of the cost of
administration under both plans, but
the statement is so bulky that it is
practicable to give il in a more eX.
tended form, which probably would
not be so well understood The
statement showing the expenditures
by the mmissiOn-manager govern
ment covers the six months from
August, 1921 to January, 1922,
while the statement showing cost un-
der the council covers the six months
from August, 1920, to January, 1921.
Under the manager plan the com
missiOners, who correspond to coun-
Cilmen, and the mayor, receive no
compensation; there is no treasurer
and health officer to pay, and the
