RIDING GOLF'S CLOSE RIVAL
Gymkhanas, Paper Chases and Saddle
Picnics Add to Interest.
Countrywide Hound About Vuried,
licturenqu and JTu!l of
Human Intercut.
CLOSE rival of golf
here is horseback riding,
for it interests a wide
range of people, more
than ever, since numer
ous gymkhanas, paper
chases and the like have been introduced.
Young and old, men and women, enjoy
the pastime, finding health and pleasure
in it, and a gymkhana frolic, or the start
and finish of a paper chase, are witnessed
by hundreds of interested onlookers. In
addition numerous saddle picnics, in
which both those who ride and
drive participate, are a pleasant feature
broken by fascinating bits of human ac
tivity such as turpentine distilleries, tar
kilns, lumber mills, grist mills, fruit
orchards, grape vineyards, and native
homes and their quaint occupants.
Among the most popular points are
I'hagard's MillslcKenzie'sMills, Black's
Mills, Wicker's Goat Farm, McCaskill's
Plantation, Horner's Distillery, The Cul
dee Presbyterian Church, and other
like places; not to mention Aberdeen,
Southern Pines, Jackson Springs,'Pine
Bluff, Boseland, Lake View and other
nearby villages.
To those desiring a detailed description
of the environs, The Outlook would be
glad to send a copy of the paper giving
full information.
The Village Hall.
Pinehurst possesses a distinctly New
England feature in its Village Hall. It is
here that various public meetings, enter
tainments and religious services are held,
as well as other gatherings.
The building is a roomy one, with a
stage adapted for amateur theatricals,
and a floor for dancing.
1EADY FOR .A GALLOP.
of the winter: the whole resulting in
the forming of many pleasant acquaint
ances and the enjoyment of many de
lightful hours.
Mirth provoking frolics, ludicrous fea
tures, tests of skill and mad races which
make the blood come quick and fast are
all happily combined in the gymkhana
programs, providing not only unlimited
sport for the participants, but fascinating
entertainment for onlookers. The reck
less spirit of the chase, and the desire to
keep at the front, are the key-notes of the
paper chases, and the rollicking starts
and the neck and neck finishes, never fail
to interest the Village guests.
As for pleasure riding, the country
'round about Pinehurst could not be
better suited, innumerable roads leading
oft in all directions through a country
possessing a peculiar charm for north
erners. Groves of towering pines, forests of
oak, broad lowlands with tangles of holly
and other shrubs, wide expanses of
plain, golden brown with sedge grass,
gleaming ponds with ancient mills and
moss-covered water wheels, furnish an
endless variety of picturesque scenery,
Fox Hunting: Talked.
Fox hunting is being talked, and de
votees of the chase will await the outcome
of the discussion with keen interest. The
country of the vicinity is admirable for
the purpose, foxes are plenty, the horses
of the stable well suited, and the addition
of the sport to the already long list would
be welcomed by all who love the music,
of the hounds.
