That golf is to remain permanently popular cannot longer be questioned, for the game has now become National in its character. It not only holds its old admirers, but is making new friends in increasing numbers each year. Young and old alike, find healthful, exhilara ting enjoyment in the game which, all things considered, justly takes its place among the very best of out-door sports. The early interest shown here is con clusive proof that the seaons tourna ments will be the most successful ever held at any resort in the country. The first of December finds more guests in the Village than ever before at this time of the year, and the season well begun; with every department as fully equipped as at the "height of the season." The Holly Inn and Harvard are enter taining many guests, the cottages well filled, and numerous social pleasures and out-door sports are proving enjoy able. The WAY in which billiard playing is simplified by the device of a Munich col lege professor has astonished those who have witnessed the test. The sides ol an ordinary billiard table are provided with six mirrors, one or more of which can be turned down when a play is to be made. The advantage rests in the fact that any image is reflected in the same angle in which it falls on the mirror iu.t as the billiard ball rebounds from the cushion in the same angle as that ol striking. The minors show at once the different ways in which shot can be made. Even the tyro is said to make difficult indirect shots a3 readily as direct ones, and the intricacies of the game are quickly conquered by anybody. F P P A British engineer estimates that when a boy of one hundred pounds in weight eats two ounces of ice in five minutes, his stomach performs heat work equivalent to neai ly an eighth of a horse power. In a machine wasting no power, this would raise the boy 194 feet high. QUIET AND DIGNIFIED. Thanksgiving Observance in Keeping with Character of Village. Ilev. llnry T. Org:ory Delivvin Sr moii Appropriate to the liny at the Village Hall-Other Aote. Tinehurst's Thanksgiving observance was in keeping with the dignity and character of the Village; just such an observance as took plae in hundreds ol cities and towns throughout the land. The day was clear, crisp, and beautiful; Nature rejoiced with mankind. A handicap tournament occupied the attention of golfers, sportsman spent the day afield, and riding, driving and walking furnished recreation for others. There were many visitors at the Dairy Farm, Market Garden and Poultry Farm. Thanksgiving dinners were as usual, a feature at the hotels, and many of the cottagers dined with friends. Religious services were held in the Village Hall at 4.00 i M., liev. Henry T. Gregory, officiating. In opening Rev. Mr. Gregory read the words of Canticle, as found in the ninety-second Psalm : "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most Highest; 'To tell of thy loving kindness in the morning, and of thy truth in the night season." Originally, he said, Thanksgiving ser vices were held to give thanks for the fruits of the soil, and svhile we as a peo pie, still have great cause to be thankful tor abundant harvests, we have also been blessed in many other ways. We are prosperous (sometimes too prosper ous it is thought) ; we are at peace; we have not been devastated by war. And so it is eminently fitting that in recognition of all these bountiful mer cies, we should set aside a special da each year in which to give thanks to Almighty God. We should also give thanks at the be ginning of the New i'ear for the bless ings of the one just passed: for special mercies shown; because He has raised us Irom beds of sickness; because he has given skill to the physician. We should thank Him for the blessings ol every day life: for health, prosperity, happiness. But let us not forget to give thanks in time of trial, for it is at this time thai we are apt to forget the blessings of life and neglect to oiler pr.iie for His mer cies and grace. As individuals let us thank God every day for the many bless ings lie has shown us. Let us not alone be thankful in our homes, but let us come together frequently, as we have come to-day, in ins louse) t0 giye thanks and praise Him, Youth's Companion Calendar.

"rinehurst" says Mr. George Simes, Manager of the Sanitary Agency, Bos ton, ui the only absolutely healthy Village, from a scientific sanitary stand point, in the world.
