w THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK THE CAROLINA OPENS ! Seventy Guests Register On Opening Day and Break Records. Every Day Now Will Add to House Count in Ino'eatting- Numbers John I. llockefeller a Guest. The magnificent Carolina threw its hospitable doors open Thursday and at dinner time seventy guests were quar tered here, by far the largest number of first day guests in history. No more gratifying indication of the popularity of this hotel or the increasing growth of the early season, or a more significant prophesy for the winter, could be had, and it does not take much of a prophet to foretell the success of the present winter or to look forward to Pinehurst's future. The Village is surely making marvellous strides towards a mark which is sure to be far beyond the expectations of its most enthusiastic admirers. As usual the hotel opens fully equipped in every department, as ready to pro vide for the luxurious comfort of its guests as at the height of the season. Every day now will add to the house count in rapidly increasing numbers. J. D. ROCKEFELLER A GUEST. A distinguished visitor arrives to-night in the person of John D. llockefeller, the noted financier, who comes with Mrs. Rockefeller for a two weeks stay. There is no more remarkable person ality before the financial world to-day than Mr. Rockefeller and it is doubtful if the commerce of this country has ever known so successful a man in many ways. Mr. Rockefeller is fond of golf and during his stay will spend much of his time in the enjoyment of the game. F SCENES OF ACTIVITY. Activity began early Thursday morn ing and all day long incoming guests thronged the corridors and baggage piled in by the rear door; but things went like clock-work and late afternoon found everyone comfortably settled and contented for The Carolina under Mr. Priest's able management, is not alone luxurious, but home-like as well. It has a wonderful fascination for those who have enjoyed its comforts and it charms new comers. To visit the place once is to both admire and love it and its in creasing popularity year after year is but a natural consequence. HOUSE WARMING HOP TO-NIGHT.
