"Proprietary club" means a club whose property and funds belong to a proprietor who
usually conducts it with a view to profit. The members, in consideration of the payment
by them to the proprietor of entrance fees and subscriptions, are entitled to make
such use of the premises and property, and to exercise such other rights and privileges,
as the contract between them and the proprietor justifies. A proprietary club may,
in its nature, be conducted by either an individual, a partnership, a voluntary association,
or a corporation.
