The building, actual construction of which is expected to be underway within two weeks, is to be a frame structure of rustic finish and with cypress ceilings and walls. It will be located near the present site of the caddy house. There are approximately sixty members o f the country club organ ization at the present time but it is the desire of the board that the membership be increased to a hun dred within the next few weeks as it is intnded that this be a community wide proposition with unlimited ben efits to those citizens, who While not keenly in treated in golf, may enjoy the privileges of the club house.
