COUNTRY CLUB
OPENS EVERY
AFTERNOON
MR.. AND MRS. NEWMAN. EX-
PERIENCED CLUB PEOPLE,
ENTERTAIN VISITORS AT
AMUSEMENT PLACE

The cozy Key West Country
Club is now open every afternoon
and evening and many of the
local people and visitors are avail
ing themselves of the comfort and
pleasures that they find there.
The club faces the pretty golf
course and has a picturesque set
ting of tropical green and beauti-
full blue sea. The place is ele-
gantly finished, luxuriously fur
nished and is thoroughly screened
throughout.
Mr.. and Mrs. Newman are ex-
perienced club people. They have
pleasing way of making people
feel perfectly at home and well
come, and they are certainly
artists in the matter of entertain
ing guests. People who have en-
joyed their hospitality state that
they found the incest food there
they have seen in Florida.
There is music, entertainment
and pleasurable pastime there
every afternoon and evening, but
on Wednesday and Saturday
nights especially brilliant func-
tions are given, and these delight
full dances are largely attended by
the leading society people of this
and other cities.
Tomorrow night the program
will be different to the usual Gus
tom at the Country Club. There
will be delightful dancing and
superb music, but instead of the
regular dinner there will be light
refreshments served.
The Key West Country Club is
a Key West institution. 1t is not
only open to club members; every
one will find a cordial welcome
there.

KEY WEST POST
OFFICE GETS
FIRST RATING
POSTAL RECEIPTS REACH RE-
QUIRED AMOUNT MAKING
CHANGE FROM SECOND
CLASS

On the first of July the Key
West post Office will be given a
well merited promotion. 1t is now
what the post Office department
designates as second-class Office,
but after July it will enjoy a
rating of frst-class, according to
official notice received by Post
master Williams.
A first-class post Office must
show postal receipts amounting to
$4,000 annually. For the past
year the Key West post Office has
been doing this amount of bust
ness and has really been entitled
to first-class rating, but the
change could not be made until
the closing date of the depart
ment's fiscal year, which is the
last day Of June.
During the World War period
the post office here was advanced
to first-class rating, which stan
dard it maintained for only about
a year. 1t was then dropped back
to second class. The business Of
the office since that time shows
gradual gains until the normal re-
ceipts now entitle it to the rating
that is to be given it in July.
When this post office becomes
Nrst class, the postal savings and
money order windows will open at
8 and close at 5. At the present
time they open at 8 and close at
6. The stamp and general delivery
windows will not change hours,
but will continue to open at 8 and
close at 6.
Postmaster Charles S. Williams
and his splendid clerical force are
worthy of highest compliment for
the high standard of efficient ser
vice maintained, and the fine
showing they have enabled the
post Office to make indicates that
the finances of this community are
gradually increasing and on SUBJ
stantial basis.

SCHOOL NURSES
MAKE REPORT
SHOWS HEALTH ACTIVITIES
IN PUBLIC
SCHOOLS

Good strong standard scales
have been placed in the schools
since the first Of the year.
Doctors have found that boy
or girl of a given age that has
reached a certain height should
have certain weight, and that
there should be a certain gain of
weight from month to month &C.
cording to the age and height of
the child.
These standards of weight are
the best measurements of health
and nutrition that we have.
The milk given by the efforts
of the Women's Club has greatly
aided the underweight children of
the public schools. Many of the
children have gained in weight.
An abundance of supplies, in
GLIDING gauze, cotton, first aid
medication and other necessary
things have been generously sup
piled by the school fund.
Hundreds of dressings have been
taken care of, including accidents
and minor skin cases.
The recommendation of physi-
cal defects made by the doctors of
the State Board of Health have
been followed up as far as pos
sible.
