In order to get out of hearing of the officers of the law and prevent interfer-ence from that source, the place for the orgies has been chosen at Mr. P. J. Goumond's beautiful Tule Springs Ranch: the time, 7:30 p.m. Of course, all members of this Rotary Club, accompanied by their Rotary ! Anns, will be present. Should any member i desire to bring other guests, please noti-; fy Secretary Harry Allen so that arrange- ; ments can be made to care for them. Aside from the demotion, the commit-tee promises a very gay time.
