SATURDAY, APRIL 9, 1921 Spring Exercise Not even with the extension of golfing facilities through the commu- nity golf links is that pastime avail- able to everybody. It requires a cer- tain amount of leisure and a certain financial independence to be a golf enthusiast. this account for any able-bodied citi- zen to fail in securing for himself the very best of exercise. There are opportunities for heéalth- fnl exercise held in other instruments than golf clubs, and none is better contrived to give the muscles just the right work than the ordinary garden rake. sesses one of these implements and those who do not may easily procure one at a very moderate expense. ~ Not- everybody has- a garden in " which to wield the rake, but there is plenty of work for those who have . no private plot in which to delve in those open places in the city where the debris of the winter has been al- lowed to collect and, unless exper- jence has something new in store for us, will be permitted to stay. A com- munity raking party would do more _ to beautify than any other civic act- ivity and no campaign for funds would be necessary to start it going. The body needs exercise at this time of the year. The lawns and parkways and vacant lots need the spending of a good deal of exercise upon them. The garden rake fur- nishes the necessary implement. The desire to use it is the only lacking element in a movement to set the community in a properly tidy condi- tion and to put the citizens in that condition of health that will destroy the spring trade in tonics. IVANHOE, LATEST GOLF PROJECT, ORGANIZING One Hundred and Sixty Acres of Land Near Area, Ill, Leased for Moderate Means Golfers What is considered will be the most democratic golf club in the vicinity of Chicago, a club within the reach of the person of moderate means, has been established at Area, Ill, under the name Ivanhoe Country club. The. club is now in course of organiza- tion. Plans for successfully financing this timely project were formulated only a few weeks ago and at a more recent meeting the organizers com- pleted negotiations whereby the club secured a long-term lease on proper- ty comprising several buildings, said to be large enough to adequately 'house 500 members, and 160 acres of natural golf land with an option to purchase. Ivanhoe is destined, according to the organizers, to become one of the greatest clubs of the present day. Membership fees and annual dues are said to be within the reach of al- most everyone, and the average golfer is offered the opportunity to per- petuate some of his most cherished idiosyncracies. Among Ivanhoe's other possibilities are 'listed tennis, roque, bathing and a bridle path. The first call for reservations at the National Convention of the Am- erican Legion in Kansas City, Mo, next fall, comes from Lewis F. Tuttle Post No. 54, of Anthony, Kan. And the request is for reservation for every member of the post. Anthony boasts a membership of ninety-seven per cent of the eligible men in the community, even reaching across the line and drawing a number of Ok- " lahomans into its fold. But there is no reason on. Nearly every household pos-; Plan Big Stadium Great Carnival Week to Launch Ex- tensive Fund Campaign--Many Ex-Grads Here Interested An entire week of celebration at which a Mardi Gras carnival, barbe- cue, pageant, snake dance, Stadium girl contest, parade and mass meet- ing will feature is being planned for the campus stadium drive the last week of April at the University of Illinois.
