Dear Editor: Before leaving this delightful place for u more attractive one in the North, and more attractive only on account of ties of home, I shall be pleased to put on record my impressions of Pinehurst. That there are "chronic kickers" no one knows better than an editor, and so it behooves one if he has found a resting place for a little while where he has been benefited, to put down his appreciation and thus offset the unwritten criticisms which are, of course, a detriment to any place. Strange as may seem that though Pine hurst has been duly advertised other places in this region have been more loudly boomed, and it was my misfor tuue to have been one of "the lambs'' to be lured into "The Pastures Green,'' (?) conspicuous however by the absence of all except "air" which would make an outing or vacation enjoyable. Imagine my feeling when I drove over the desert to land if not in the "land that floweth with milk and honey," yet, at least, in a New England village situated here in the South. Always trained for quiet action, I took but a minute to come to a decision to move and thus make the much boomed resort more enchanting by being farther distance. Now, that I am fairly well removed, I vrily believe "that distance doth lend enchantment." This resort, while duly advertised since it is not conducted for phi lan thropic purposes, is however, not over advertised, the spirit of the management seems to pervade the "lesser lights" which fact is readily seen when people who come for the first time are planning to return the coming season. Three things make up an ideal place for recovery of health or the whiling away of a few days to gain strength for the coming conflict in active life. Good climate that we have all about us here, as Pinehurst has no monopoly on air and sunshine. Good food, by that I do not mean the dainties and fineries obtainable only at great expense ; but good, plain, well cooked, neatly served food, with enough variety to sharpen one's appetite to the point of enjoying each meal and lastly, good society. Of this latter I can say only in a word, as I am thinking of my departure "that blessings brighten as they take their flight." It was my good fortune to have my lot cast in pleasant places here indeed stopping at the Lenox where everything is homelike. We are enjoying all the comforts of home, and the food is cooked as mother used to cook it. If I were asked to explain how the food were so prepared, "It is mixed with brains" (not calves brains). I can speak only of this caravansary as I could not have left it "if I would and would not if I could," as I have learned to hold on to a good thing if I have it. The most enjoyable part of it all at the Lenox is the perfect freedom and the spontaneous good nature that pervades the entire household. The great problem after all, at a place like this, is to find means for passing away the time, and of that I have found such abundance and of such variety that the time, with the exception of the first day or two, has not been heavy on my hands. Were I to plan for another vacation in the fall or early winter, I should return to Pinehurst with the expectation of having a pleasant and profitable vacation. I must express my thanks to the genial manager of the pool room, who lias helped me to pass away an hour or two during my stay here, much to my profit and enjoyment. I might say many other things, but I prefer to say only those things which are true, leaving the imaginary things to be written by those whose business it is to boom Pinehurst. J. E. Bary.
