Village or Pinehurst N-C
1NEHURST is, to be brief, the most complete and perfectly
equipped Fall, Winter and Spring Resort in the world; an
Ideal Village created by the late James W. Tufts. Possessing
exceptional opportunities for outdoor life, it also offers right
conditions for living in every sense of the words; its unsur
passed location in the far famed long-leaf pine thermal belt
or Sand Hill region, responsible for a winter climate generally
acknowledged to oossess few eauals in the rare Duritv of its
air, and the subtle tonic of its sunshine.
As the winter Golf centre of the two hemispheres, Pinehurst is now
thoroughly established, its unequalled equipment embracing three distinct
six-thousand-yard eighteen-hole courses and an additional nine-hole course.
Perfectly maintained and laid out in accordance with modern standards,
they rank with the world-famous courses, and the special holes are "quoted"
wherever the game is known. Here are held annually four contests of inter
national importance beginning with the Midwinter tournament in January,
and concluding with the United North and South Amateur Championship in
April. A fireproof locker room, shower baths and observation and lunch
rooms, add to the attractions of the conveniently located Country Club house.
Closely seconding Golf in importance, are Trap Shooting and Tennis,
the annual Mid-winter Handicap and Tennis Championship held annually in
January, classic events which attract the country's best, a significant . indi
cation of the excellence of the superb equipment for these sports. As the
Hub of Southern good roads, the Village offers special attractions to motorists
and those who ride and drive; the Livery is of the best and the Garage the
largest in the state. Auto service runs between the Country Club, Station and
various points in the Village.
Forty thousand acres are maintained as Shooting Preserves for Village
guests with good quail and dove shooting and an occasional turkey or wood
cock. In connection are Kennels of high excellence and equipment neces
sary to meet the demands of the most exacting sportsmen. Rifle and pistol
shooting, polo, fox hunting, equestrian sports, baseball, billiards and pool, are
among the attractions which combine happily with social pleasures. The hotel
orchestras are of high standard and dancing is enjoyed by the entire colony.
The Hotels, four in number, include The Carolina, the largest in the
state and one of the best appointed in the south, which with its new seventy
room addition, provides for over five hundred guests in accordance with the
high standard of modern requirements. The Holly Inn, accommodating two
hundred guests, enjoys general popularity, while The Berkshire and Harvard,
caring for one hundred guests . , are suited to those desiring a more moderate
rate. The Pine Crest Inn and Lexington are the smaller houses. In addition
to twenty attractive family cottages, well furnished and provided with modern
conveniences, are a rapidly increasing number of private homes ; evidence of
the permanent place the Village holds in the affections of its admirers.
Various utility plants, a Dairy, Creamery and Market Garden, models of
excellence and the only plants maintained on the same large scale for a
similar purpose, play an important part in supplying the needs of the Village
in the way of milk, cream and vegetables. There are also a department
store, pharmacy, meat market, jewelry store, novelty shop, photographic
studio, chapel, schools, library, central power plant furnishing electric
light and steam heat, laundry, refrigerating plant, general office, post, tele
graph and telephone offices, railway station, resident physician, resident
minister, abundant pure water supply, and sanitary sewerage system. In
fact, the Village supplies every modern need offering unequalled and diver
sified attractions for people of refinement at a wide range of price.
Consumptives are excluded.
Pinehurst is seventeen hours from New York and through Pullmans run
throughout the season direct to the Village over the Seaboard Air Line
Railroad. The western service is excellent. Stopover privileges are granted
to tourists going either north or south.

but welcome hand of George H. Doran,
the famous publisher, who has the Com
modore 's cottage for the winter.
And my dear, I'm fixing to build me
an electrically-charged barbed wire
fence a-la-Dutch Border around the
plantation. For who do I see, entirely
surrounded by bird hunting dogs and
infallible shotguns? George M. HoAvard.
Mrs. Howard is back at the Hale, and
George is back at the game.
The idiot who writes all this drip for
the local Outburst, got a fit of economy
the other day, and so when Howard Phil
lips broke a lung and won the Tin "Whis
tle at golf, instead of having a decent
picture made he scraped up some comic
cut and labelled it "Phillips Wins the
Whistle," or something like that. And
what do you suppose? A regular golf
magazine sends in and asks for the cut
to glorify Phillips in the golfers' gal
lery. Merely proves nobody can look
too foolish to pass for a champion put
ter.
Donald Parson now a regular Cap
tain, in the Intelligence Department at
that blew in Saturday. Mrs. Parson
had led the advance guard some time
before. And now watch for Horatio at
the Bridge.
The colony has claimed several very
welcome additions. Among them, N. A.
Eose, of Wellesley Hills, who has taken
the Sperry House.
Everybody goes on a swapping and
a-buying house sites and finished
chateaux (toes). The latest are Mr. and
Mrs. John P. Mulcay, who have pur
chased the Idlewild for permanent win
ter quarters.
The most sensible are a bunch of plu
tocrats who have gone in for a scheme
that one would think would be universal.
It is a combination automobile den and
chauffeurs' paradise. They call it the
First Community Garage. Instead of
seven little brick pimples over the land
scape they have one central decent build
ing where the Packards are all put, and
where the engineers can foregather in
the evening and disregard the telephone
and play flapjack all together. It's a
good scheme. The chapter includes
James Barber, H. II . Johnson, N. B.
Hersoff, S. B. Chapin, H. F. Noyes
and C. L. Bausher.
A. B. Swoope came down the other
day from Medena to observe the pro
gress being made on the Red Gables,
Mrs. Sinclair's old home, which he has
purchased and is framing over for the
winter. And Mrs. Arthur Page moved
into the Lile Old Brick House with one
eye winking in the chimney with her
whole caravan.
With which, I have now reached
Thanksgiving in my truly rural account.
Of course, I realize I've told you abso
lutely nothing. The skeleton may be
here, but the details I know. But my
dear, I don't know who won the rubber
plant at bridge. I never play. I can't
sidle up to perfect strangers and inquire
into the identity and fascinating ante
cedents of their dinner guests, nor tell
the horrid truth about more than half
my enemies. So it will have to suffice.
I consider that when Mr. and Mrs. M.
B. Johnson open the Hillcrest and the
Little House goes into commission, that
Pinehurst has arrived. Hence I so ad
vise you, and enclose a sight draft on
Providence for your immediate return.
Yours,
Lord Aberdeen.
German View of Christianity
Frederich Wilheim Nietzche was one
of the most noted of modern German
philosophers. How much has his philos
ophy affected the views and character
of the Germans of today? Is not the
answer written in the blood of the wo
men and children, the old men of occu
pied France and Belgium? Are not the
Lusitania victims witnesses to the Ger
man adoption of Nietzche 's faith?
Here is the indictment of Christian
ity: "With this I conclude and pronounce
my sentence: I condemn Christianity. To
me it is the greatest of all imaginable
corruptions. The church is the great
parasite; with its anemic idea of holi
ness it drains life of all its strength, its
love, and its hope. The other world is
the motive for the denial of every real
ity. I call Christianity the one great
curse, the one great intrinsic depravity,
the one great instinct of revenge, for
which no expedient is sufficiently poison
ous, secret, underhand, to gain its ends.
I call it the one immortal shame and
blemish upon the human race . ' '

Pinehurst boasts but two genuine
aristocrats, to the manner born. One is
Nicodemus Taylor. The other is that
supreme combination of indifference and
clockwork efficiency known as Bodo.
Bodo reigns in Jay Hall's household,
and is the only trained detective, ath
lete, caddie, provost marshal and flank
ing movement in the State. He could
pose without blushing for a bronze statue
of Mowgli's Grey Wolf. And did pose
in the Hotel McAlpine on Saturday, No
vember 2.'(1, in the annual specialty show
for Police Dogs. He was made Reserve
Grand Champion of the United States,
which is to say that Apollo was consid
ered to look a little more like the real
thing. When it comes to action in the
fields not even Apollo will be in at
the finish.
The Muater of the Link
and Mrs. Donald Ross are back again
in their home again for the winter. Don
ald has constructed his new line of de
fences and retouched his courses to keep
ahead of the art of golfing offense with
his usual skill. He makes the Country
Club his headquarters, as always, while
building the principal new links being
estabished throughout the country.
The library
In the General Office building on Water-
trough Square is open now every after
noon under the charge of Miss Lucy
Priest .
At the Cherokee
Mrs. Z. R. Bliss and Miss Holmgren
have opened the Cherokee Cottage for
their annual wintern sojourn in the colony.
