POTTLE & SON Three Score and Four, Comrades All, Gather For Tin Whistle Dinner Perfectly Carried Out in Elaborate Detail It Itanka am Standard by Which Others are Judg-ed FROM REVEILLE to taps, the first annual Tin Whistle dinner at The Carolina was a furlough long to be the subject of conversation round the . nineteenth hole camp fire ; the en vy of other golfing reg iments, the standard by which all simi lar spreads are judged. Run the Club burgee close up to the stars and stripes at headquarters, let the guns boom, sound the drums ; salute ! And ere the echoes have died away, another dinner will take its place. So here's to 1912 Bumpers! Three score and four there were gath ered, comrades all, thiee score and four tried and found true on many battle fields ; comrades of mess, field and biv ouac, and the result was mirth and good cheer which time cannot' efface. Per fectly carried out on elaborate lines, no detail overlooked, the feast itself but a part of the evening's program of oratory, wit, music and good fellowship, without a break from greetings to good nights. Cigars had barely followed coffee when President Kellogg rapped for or der, presenting Mr. Hunter as toast master, and with his opening re marks, it was apparent that the selec tion had been well made ; his introduc tions sparkling with delicate wit and re partee and his stories as new and as bright as the emblem of the organiza tion. The honor speaker was Mr. Tufts, who referred, in opening, to the early history of the Club "from which has developed", as he expressed it, "one of the greatest golf organizations in the country, and which has certainly been the greatest 'Booster' of 'The Game' Pinehurst has . known." In conclusion his tribute to the work of Professionals Donald and Alexander Ross was greeted with prolonged applause. National Am ateur Champion Fownes, was next called upon and while he said little, un der protest "I'm not a speaker and nev er was. I've got nothing to say and I'm not going to say anything" was suf ficiently terse to make a hit. Mr. W. L. Hurd, who followed, was easily the star of the evening, his verses containing sly pokes at the various mem bers, ("translated from an ancient Scotch manuscript brought across the water by Professional Donald Ross,") a master piece which brought down the house ; and which we hope to print later on in re sponse to numerous requests. Mr. E. C. Fownes followed with sever al inimitable dialect stories,. after which the toastmaster called upon Professional Donald Ross as "one whom we may ad mire much for his golf, but whose char acter and splendid manhood we admire more." Donald's talk was a plea that golfers act as missionaries in aiding those in charge of golf courses to enforce necessary regulations without which the game would be lost. In closing he thanked the Tin Whistles for the cordial support they had always given and re ferred to Mr. Tufts as the man "behind the gun" who was always first and fore most in his stand for golf in its truest and best sense. Rev. Mr. Cheatham's remarks struck the keynote of the evening when he said : "Pinehurst has needed just this sort of thing ; the element of good fellowship which is exemplified tonight and which is, in reality, the most important factor Of the game. The Tin Whistles are men who realize that there are limitless possibilities in golf and who are deriving from it increasing pleasure in conse quence,thus playing an important part in further spreading Pineburst's fame as the leading golf center of the world." Mr. E.G.Chandlee,who was introduced as a "barbarian," and devoted his time to the gun instead of the golf club, said that there was no place on the earth where the air was so pregnant with golf as at Pinehurst and that none more fully demonstrated just what a wonderful, game it was. "Your number two course", he concluded, "is a world beater, but if you really want to hear golf, the nine teenth holes in the hotel lobb'es are the place." Mr. Prestley S. Maclaughlin followed, his talk a series of rapid-fire stories which kept the company in a continuous roar of laughter. Mr. Foot, the closing speaker, referred to the wide range of territory represented by the Club's mem bers, at the conclusion of which Toast master Hunter called for three cheers for the committee of arrangements which were given with a zest equal to that which greeted the first speaker. Then ''Auld Lang Syne", good nights and pleasant memories. Arranged in the form of a U, the tables brought the company together as a Unit, friends at your elbow and across the table ; the boutonniere of violets at each plate suggestive of the sentiment of the occasion, the Club pins and menus appropriate souvenirs, and the orchestral selections a happy diversion to which "Mac" added his part by sending carica tures around the board and Mr. J. D. Foot, as leader in the evening's singing, contributed much. Occupying positions of honor at "key" table were President J.E. Kellogg and the guests : the Hon. Robert Hun ter, toastmaster of the evening; Mr. Leonard Tufts, owner of Pinehurst; Herbert L. Jillson, Editor of The Pine hurst Outlook ; Professional Alexan der Ross, Mr. Prestley Si Maclaughlin, known to fame as "Mac, caricaturist ;" Mr. Evan G.Chandlee, a non-golfer; the Rev. T. A. Cheatham, Resident Minister; Professional Donald J. Ross, Mr. Wil liam L. Hurd, former President of the Whistles audits revered historian; ex president James D. Foot, and the Club's choir master ; National Amateur Cham pion William C. Fownes, Jr., and his uncle, Mr. E. S. Fownes. Members gathered at the left wing in cluded Messrs. Irving S.
