It is believed therefore," that the es- tablishment of club such as the Planta- grnet, the main object of which will be to afford an inexpensive yet an exclusive cyntre for men and women of good an entry, will be welcomed by many and net a long felt want.

The club should strongly appeal to all of cadet or junior branches of old and it is hoped that the atmos phere which it should create may bring back mething of the romace and glam- our of the middle uge, as well as afford some relaxation for the stress and tur÷:
