THE OUTLOOK PUBLISHING CO., Pinehurst, North Carolina TWENTY THOROUGHBREDS Concluded from page one) HOUSTON'S BEST BET But on seen performance none of these has a license to lead Houston's Front Royal. Bred in Virginia and trained by her enthusiastic owner, this pride of the Old Dominion cleaned up the whole outfit at the Sandhill Fair. Anl this was somo performance, too. For she was running against the colt Uncle Sam and Ave may as well say right here that those in the know who saw this an imal work against Genevieve and Kinder Lou last week are of the opinion that he has the makings of a really great horse . LADY BETTY'S PROBLEMS She will have her chance to prove it in this same running festival. For to complete the effort to make this the biggest day in the history of the track, they have arranged a match between this big-hearted stallion, Machere, Virginia S. and Lady Betty a quartette of thoroughbreds that would be a credit to any course. It will be for five fur longs, and will give Lady Betty some thing to think about if she is to hold her laurels. For Lady Betty held down the short sprints last year. Whether she can sustain the pace set by Uncle Sam is a problem. Machere is totally unknown to the writer. But he can truthfully say this much: The three-year old filly has the best conformation of any horse we have ever seen on the track. This cannot be said of Hous ton's Virginia S. But what is more in her favor than my opinion of conforma tion, is Houston's passionate opinion. And let what will run, and let boast who will, Houston stays with it that his mare will show the way. Remember this, for it may be worth remembering. If she beats Uncle Sam there will be fur ther things to be said about her. What I set out to say was that there will be at least twice as many thorough, bred running horses and a faster meet than has ever been seen here before. The wintering "stables are beginning to arrive. This makes it possible to add to these three performances a thorough bred run for gentlemen riders . The en tries for this will not close until the night before the race almost a week after this writing. Those already entered are: Half Measure, Nat Hurd's small black filly with an eagle eye ; Kinder Lou;, Maporan and Lucille. Riders slated to date include Lambert, Hurd Splane, J. Hayden Preston, Win throp and Louis Rutherford, N. S. Hurd and Jim Cameron. A particularly fast program is insured in the trotting and pacing classes, and Picquet is out to guarantee a bit of diversion between the halves with his specialties in the circus arena. Famous Setter IiOt J ay Hll is disconsolate . He has lost the famous setter Dolly, the pride of the kennels and the best hunting dog in the State. He deposes and says that he last saw her while he was hunting on Cad. dell's place, near Carthage, a few days ago. Anvone can tell Dollv. STia ia wonder, little black and white bitch with a little tan tick. A liberal reward is offered for her return or for information which will lead to her recovery. Com. municate with Jay Hall, Pinehurst. v.i n O ft K II Y Jill AM 1 FiMiM Film be Shown at Pin, burnt Theatre Charlie Picquet Mak a Few JteniaikN Charlie Picquet claims that for all in. tents and purposes there is no paper in Pinehurst at all. He says that it is perfectly well known that in a journal of any standing at all, among other col umns it is simply obliged to have one written by an artist in review of the drama and histrionic productions of the fashionable playhouses. He says cul tivated anl metropolitan audience de mands and requires this as the sina quinine of any editorial effort. The consequence is that he is shocked and amazed to scan: the pages of the Outrage and discover no mention or suggestion of anything whatever relating to art or the drama in any form. It was not so in Ben Johnson's of Colly Cibber's time. It was no use for us to counter with inept remarks making invidious compari sons between Covent Garden and the Pinehurst Opera House. We had gotten in over our heads. He attacked us with the roll call of the celebrities that were daily appearing in the wake of the Pathe News and the Fatty Arbuckle comedies. He exhibited contracts a six-foot shelf of them demonstrating beyond cavil that he was to show the self .same line of million dollar picture plays that fill the Strand on Broadway with the populace of Kansas every day in the year. And the list is impressive, even to a golf-mad journalist. It in cludes honor bright Marguerite Clark, Douglass Fairbanks of the perpetual smile, John Barymore, William S. Hart the professional desperado, Shirley Ma son, and Dorothy Gish. Mary Pickford here displays her wonderful juvenile parts with Bryant Washburne, the well known comedian. Cuddles Lee, the fa mous Follies favorite will be here Friday night in the " Cruise of the Make Believes. " Getting down to cases, he fays we might make our debut in the art of dramatic appreciation by mentioning that on Monday next Shirley Mason anl Ernest Truex will appear at the Pine hurst Theatre in a thrilling comedy drama based on the war, called "Come On In. ' ' He says the title may also convey a delicate and gentle hint to the discrim inating public. In other words, he is not averse to it being generally known that it applies with equal urgency to the theatre itself as to the play. Buck Home A grain Dr. Walter II. Page, who recently re signed as Ambassador to Great Britain, was welcomed home last Wednesday morning. He came from New York with Mrs. Page and their daughter, Mrs. C. G. Loring, and Major Frank C. Page, and will spend the Winter in the Curri tuck Cottage.
