Conockonoquits C. C. New House. 
The new club house of the Conockonoquit 
Canoe Club, located in the Ten-Mile River at 
Omega Pond in Phillipsdale, is nearly com¬ 
pleted. The new structure is more than twice 
as large as the one that was destroyed by fire 
last fall and occupies a fine position at the head 
of the big pond at Phillipsdale. 
The club which was incorporated in April, 
: 9°7, was at first limited to twelve members, but 
under the new arrangement this has been in¬ 
creased to twenty-four and the club quarters 
doubled in size with the erection of the new 
building. The present structure conforms in a 
measure to the general style of the old building 
and is 45 by 50 feet in size. The club room is 
25 by 20 and has a large fireplace finished off 
with a large mission mantel which was donated 
by two of the members. The room is also 
finished in mission style. 
1 he boat room will accommodate thirty-two 
canoes and is well equipped. There is a 
kitchen connected with the quarters, and it is 
intended to hold weekly suppers and entertain¬ 
ments for the club members and their friends. 
The large veranda which extends across the 
front of the house and overhangs the pond is 
eight feet wide and 45 feet long. 
A large float anchored in front of the house 
makes the water easy of access for the 
canoeists.
