PORTLAyPy SEPTEMBER 13, 1909. i Portland Heights Social Club Plans Functions Xmnbrr of Dellbtfnl Affair Prom ised by "Cllffdwellerm" for Com-fas- Season Membership of Club GrOTTlnc Rjtpldlr. PORTLAND HEIGHTS to going to have a gay social season this Win ter and the festivities will not be confined to the "Cliff Dwellers" them selves, but they are going to throw open their arms . and welcome society folks from all parts of the city. -The new club house la nearing completion and It will be the center of events, not only with the club, but with the Individual mem bers, who are planning a number of de lightful entertainments. The clubhouse Itself la ornamental. At present no one can appreciate the teautiea of the Interior finishes, but the possibilities are such that sufficient is left to the Imagination to know that the clubhouse is going to be the prettiest and most complete of Its kind In the city. It Is fully expected that it will be ready to open about October 15. although the bowling room and some of the other fixtures which are being manufactured In the East may not arrive by then. The main assembly-room will be very pretty, from the description, and is large enough to accommodate almost any dance. That the club Is popular la evident from the number of applications for memberships that have been received. Of course, the club has as a nucleus for membership all of the stockholders in the company that purchased the club grounds and erected the building, but the number of applications for member ship outside, of the stockholders is as tonishing the directors. It seems more than assured that the number of outside memberships, will soon be taken, for only a certain number was allotted to those who are not subscribers to the stock of the owning company. Every holder of stock is entitled to a membership which Includes all the mem bers of his or her family. The applica tions are coming in such number that the directors feel the membership limit will be reached before the clubhouse is opened; In fact it la reported that plans are being discussed allowing each stock holder to suggest the name of only one non-stockholder member. There will be 160 family members and 100 non-family m embers. With such a wide membership there is sure to be a number of delightful events during the coming season. Those who re familiar with the objects of the club say that the committee selected Is capable of planning the most delightful entertainments. All the members are well-known hostesses and their home af fairs In past seasons have always been attractive. The club Itself will have at least two club nights each month, and these will take the form of an informal dance, a card party, a musleale or some thing of that nature. In addition to this, there will be a series of formal dances during the Winter. While the club nights will be a feature, the building of the clubhouse is going to have a wider effect on social affairs. It has been arranged so that any member of the club can secure the use of the clubhouse on certain evenings, and this means a series of private entertain ments. Many persons who have liked to give dances have been unable to do so because of the smailness of the average home or the fact that the golf club was too far out of the city, and If one wanted V.ll thnc. amnnil th rifV WPrft either 1 too large or could not be prettily deco rated. All these objections have, been overcome by the building of the club on the Heights. The main room of the building is practically the same size as that at the golf club, and then everything la convenient for serving supper. Adja cent rooms are arranped so that they can be turned Into card rooms or smoking-rooms, and In this way the new club building is admirably planned to answer all social requirements. Announcement of the plans for the entire season will not be made for a week or two. when the social committer now working on the list of events will have completed Its labor. For each club night there will be a different list of hostesses, so that each one in the club will help entertain during the tea son. With the social affairs In the hands of such a committee, and the fact that members already In the club are be sieged to have their names proposed, there remains no doubt but what the social season this year, particularly on Portland Heights, is going to be strik ingly delightful and fuU of life.
