Entered as second class matter at the Post Office at Plnehurst, North Carolina. Saturday, December 8, lOOG. A mother of my acquaintance, for whose opinions I have high regard, tells me that the colored supplements which are a conspicuous part of big Sunday papers, and which are, pri marily, issued to attract the attention of the chil dren, are barred from the younger members of her family. The subject is one which I had not given much thought, but a careful consideration of it and a critical examination of the colored supplements In question, has fully convinced me that the ac tion is a wise one. I have long wondered, in a vague way, just what the effect of following Buster Brown's re markable career would have on the average American boy, and, from time to time, I have casually noted that there were features of the supplements which offended my taste, but I doubt very much, even if there were children of my own, that unaided I.should have fully com prehended just what the real harm was. The more I consider the subject the stranger it seems, for we all realize how impressionable a child is, and exercise great care in the matters of environment, example and discipline. In view of this why should we allow children to come in contact, week after week, with literature and pic tures which would be the very last we would think of selecting in book form? There is no necessity for going into detail re garding the supplements in question; suffice it to say that there is food for careful thought in the subject for all mothers. Early social activities prophesy one, of the gayest seasons in the history of the Village, and it is a pleasant indication, for with it there Is no lessoning interest in outdoor activities. In a word it is but the natural consequence of the assembling of congenial people, and the result will be the forming of pleasant acquaintances which could be made in no other way. Not alone is this confined to social pleasures in the general meaning of the words, but to open air diversions as well, for the present plans in clude not alone dances, teas and gatherings, but merry picnics, gymkhanas and other diversions in the fresh air and sunshine. Tear by year this feature has been more conspicuous here, and its continuance is but a natural one in thegrowth of the Village. The Tin Whistles have developed this among the men; teas, parties and the like among the women, and now comes increased activity in affairs which draw both men and women to gether and knit the Village closely into one great family, giving Plnehurst more and more the character of what it has always possessed con spicuously home. BASE BALL IEASOIV Oysters Make Chowder of Clams In Thanksgiving: Day Game. Base ball fans witnessed the informal opening of the local base ball season Thanksgiving afternoon, and in spite of the fact that the nines were largely "picked up" an interesting game which promises good things to come, was the result. From the two teams material will later be selected for the Village nine which will be organized to keep other ag gregations on the move from the first of the season until the last. Apropos to the epicurean side of the day, more than through resemblance, the teams were dubbed the Oysters and the Clams ; the Oysters coming first, as they should, with an even dozen to their credit, and the Clams following in chowder, to the tune of four. A goodly delegation of rooters were in attendance and, as usual, their interest proved a mirth provoking feature. The make up of the teams follows : OYSTERS.

Smith Robinson, C. Murphy.W.L. Yaeger Umpire, M. F. Veno. Vog-ue's Christmas Number.
