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.
