Fast Coast Finance Corporation,
Nvhich is developing .a new town site
and winter resort six miles ° north of
Palm Beach, realizes that one of the
first necessities is adequate accommoda-
tions,, and entertainment for ies future
.1idents and winter visitors. Having on its Board
Directors,the well-known ;olf-Architect, Donald.
Ross, who is Director of Sports and Entcrtain-
snt, it has seemed wise to form a separa' e corpo-
tion for the Country Club, and take over the 400
res of land bordering on Lake Worth, or which
build three IS -hole Golf Courses and an ate rac-
se up-to-date Clubhouse with an adjoining IDor-
story- on either side, facing the Lake. The land
rolling and affords a beautiful view of the north
.d. of Lake Worth, and the Clubhouse and Dormi-
ries will be located on the highest elevation com-
anding a water --view of the east, north, and south.
;long the established features of this Golf Course
.11 be the grass greens with luxuriant firm turf,
tique water hazards, s:old mounds, bunkers, and
apical growth, ,v}' h w ill inspire one's, best efforts
d skill.
'It is a conceded fact that Golf is the niain aurae -
an for thousands of v.inter visitors at the well-
lown Florida resorts, beginning at St. Augustine
d taking in Ormond, Daytona, Palm Beach, and
iami. it is also a fact eatduring the busiestpart
the winter season, the best Golf Courses are ve.rs-
uch congested and more or less dissatisfa:tion has
yen manifest by,, the ardent admirers of this great
it -of -door sport. For the past five years 'it is true,
pless reservation has been made months in ad-
ance, it has been (ylit.e impossible to :.re:. accomino-
tions at any hotel in or around Palm Beach.
We shall begin_ at once to erect the Clubhouse and
vo adjoining lyorfni:t.or ies to be ready for Occu-
an"cv December
With the wonderful winter climate, which is
Dnceded to be the best in the world at this point
taalm Beach) only two ;rules from the Gulf Stream,
nd with such *teen as Donald J. Ross and Francis
). Ouirnet in its management and operation, much
lay be expected of this Country Club.
It is believed that in a short time it will become
le most popular, most complete, and one of the
ighest grade Country Clubs in the world.
GolfClub

["HE proposed Club House is to be built on the
mainland shore of Lake Worth, set well back
-om the lake and surrounded by great lawns and a
rove of palms. The architect's plans call for a
lag nifcent structure, together with a dormitory
t either end which provides accommodations for
Ins -It 200 people. The main Club House will
contain a third of the sleeping rooms, a large lounging
room, card rooms and reception rooms, a high class
restaurant and ball room, boo men's lockers and 2S0
wornen's lockers; its broad verandas, overlooking
the Lake, M unyon's Island and in the distance the
blue Atlantic, will provide for guests an ever -chang-
ing panorama of great interest and beauty. It is
proposed to build the firstand second floor of brick
and the third of stucco, making a substantial and
attractive looking Club House.
The Dormitories on either side will be connected
together by a veranda bridge and with sleeping rooms
in the Club House, which will accommodate about
200 members.
Golf
W .."SHE Club will have three of the finest i8-hole
1 courses in the south and will be in charge of
Donald J., Ross, who designed and constructed the
celebrated Pinehurst courses, and many famous
courses in the North, and has to his credit, all the
well-known courses in Florida —the Palm Peach
Country Club, the Royal Palm Country Club of
Miami, the two courses at Belleair, the Daytona
Country Club, the Fort Myers Country Club and
the St. Augustine links. Francis D. Ouimet, Hon-
orary Secretary, who is connected with the direc-
torate and former N 'itio "al Open and Amateur
Golf Champion of the U. S. A., we expect will arrange
several interesting contests during the winter seasons.
The first two golf courses will not be finished for
use this winter, but other sports will be furnished for
winter season of I920-2I.
Tennis
, I.-lERf will be several - nely- . surfaced tennis
courts near the Club. This is a sport always
well patronized in Florida, and a good stiff set or
two every day and a cool bath before lunch will put
the ginger and vim into anybody.
T rapshootir'g
f. SPECIAL feature at th.e Club will be trap-
.t 1. shooting. A trapshooting Club is being or-
ganized under the able direction of Buffalo Smith,
who was with the A. E. P. in France as director of
athletic sports and trapshooting. It is very fasci-
nating and is indulged in by thousands of men and
women as a recreation.
Interesting wild boar, turkey., deer and alligator
hunts will also be under Buffalo Smith's direction,
A completd. stock of ammunition and clay pigeons
will always be on hand and will be furnished at lowest
possible rates. The first tournament of one week
will take place the last of January, 1921.
Surf Bathing
JUST across Lake Worth over the causeway will
be developed an elaborate up-to-date Bath
rouse and Casino, where both surf and tank bathing
will be available.
Yachting, Motor Boating, Canoeing
► RAT Houseboat going South must pass our
-�� Club House and it is proposed to make a fea--,.
ture of yachting, motor boating, and canoeing.
This will be an innovation for Palm Beachers.
The Gulf. Stream being only 2 miles out, gives the
water a temperature of 70 degrees.
Polo Field
POLO field is also to be included and will
be ready for match games with Miami one
year from fall of 1920.
/CUT-NG ALLEYS, BOX BALL, QUOITS,
_'CROQUET and Garne Tables will be provided
for those desiring the lesser forms of exercise.
has -ling
°`RAINED saddle horses under the direction
I of a competent teacher will be available on
the shortest notice. \ - and erfui, shell roads among
the palms and pines will enable all` i.w-ho prefer riding,
to enjoy the scenery in their own way-, A bridle
path is proposed on Munyon Island.
Fishing
SOUTHERN Florida is the fisherman's -deligh..
4 The waters of Lake Worth and the Atlantic
Ocean are full of the finny- tribe. It is said that there
are over 150 varieties of fish, including bass, king -
fish, sail fish, pompano, sheepshead, the tarpoon
and giant devil fish, as well as large species of shark,
porpoise and other deep sea monsters.
The Club Orchestra
t` ELSE'x City Country Club will be fa:nou
for its orchestra, already negotiations are
under way for a celebrated orchestra and concert.,
will be given daily, which will attract many people
from all the large surrounding hotels. Concerts
will also be given in the evening, before the dancing
begins.
