SEASON'S SPORTS PROGRAM AT PINEHURST
Golf
List of Principal Events
The tournament schedule at Pinehurst opened this season with the playing of
the seventeenth annual Autumn tournament on November 9, 10, 11 and 12, followed
by the second renewal of the Mid-South Amateur and Professional best-ball
event on November 18 and 19. Practically every week until May will witness a
hard struggle for honors in some event. Most every year the Country Club
committee adds some new and interesting event to its program. The Mid-South
had its first inception last year when it brought together one of the strongest fields
of amateurs and professionals that ever competed in an event of its kind, and has
been added as a permanent fixture to the yearly schedule of events. This year
the annual Carolina Tournament for Women has been- added, and is set for
December 6, 7, 8 and 9.
A survey of the following will show the season to be replete with interesting

The development of the Moore county Sandhills of North
Carolina, with its famed winter resorts, its extensive peach
orchards, its modern and progressive villages is one of the in
teresting romances of present day achievement.
The calendar year soon to close marks one of the greatest
periods of new creation these Sandhills have ever seen.
In the Pinehurst neighborhood, including Mid-Pines, Knoll
wood, Southern Pines and other points in the vicinity about a
million dollars worth of building has been done. The new peach
orchards that have come forward are worth the big end of
another million. The Mid-Pines country club will in itself by
the time it is ultimately completed cut a bad hole in a million
dollar bill.
But the interesting fact is that the speed forward is now
swifter than ever. Projects contemplated are bigger. The big
day of the Pinehurst section is only now dawning.
The reason is that the causes that made all this phenomenal
development are still as active as in the past, and that they have
become known to a steadily increasing number of people.
The Pinehurst of to-day is an accomplishment, that of to
morrow will be a revelation. An ideal climate, close to the
North, good roads, perfect railroad service, every modern con
venience, the center of winter sports, congenial people, and only
one night from New York.
Some day, and not far ahead, land in this favored section
will be high-priced. To-day it is still cheap, and selling at low
acreage prices.
