Mrs. F. 22. Low? o Detroit. .An enthusiastic horsewoman and frequent visitor
to Pinehurst who takes part in the various equestrian events here
Recent arrivals among the Cottage col
ony were Mr. and Mrs. Tyler L. Redfield
who have opened up their charming home,
Box Court. Mr. and Mrs. John C. Spring
are back at the Log Cabin, and Mr. and
Mrs. A. J. DeMott are at home in Onon
daga. Mrs. Louis Budell and Miss Ada Bu
dell of Westfield, N. J., have returned to
the Pine Crest Inn for their annual visit.
Mrs. Melvin Jones of Chicago, Western
golf champion, has engaged rooms at the
Pine Crest and will be a starter in the
annual North and South championship
for Women.
Miss Mollie Snyder of Middletown, N.
Y., is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. E.
Cross at the P. B. O'Brien Cottage.
While Pinehurst has never had the
pleasure of entertaining Irving Cobb, the
foremost humorist of our time, we have
his attractive daughter, known to her
many friends as "Buff" Cobb, who,
with Miss Marion Callanan, are house
guests of Mrs. Geo. II. Doran at the
Chatham Cottage. Miss Cobb takes part
in the games at the Races each week and
gave the onlookers a thrill last week
when her horse took fright, giving her a
spill. She was not hurt, fortunately, and
insisted on finishing the games on the
same horse.
Owen Moore of Film-fame, made a fly
ing trip to Charleston, S. C, last week,
where he was detained for a few days
making some new and thrilling subma
rine pictures. But the charm of Pinehurst
and Golf drew him back to stay with us
a few weeks longer.
Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Cross of Middle
town, N. Y., and their two interesting
daughters, Misses Elizabeth and Geor
gine, have taken the P. B. O'Brien cot
tage for the season. Mr. Cross will be
with his family as much as possible, com
muting from New York and other points
in the United States every now and then.
Mr. and Mrs. Cross are a great addition
to the Pinehurst Cottage Colony and are
warmly welcomed by their many friends.
Mrs. Russell . Wiggins of Middletown,
N. Y., and Pinehurst, and Miss Mollie
Snyder of Middletown, were the dinner
guests of Mr. and Mrs. Cross at the Car
olina on Saturday evening. As Mr.
Cross is leaving this week for a short trip
to the Coast, the dinner was a farewell
party.
Pinehurst welcomes another distin
guished guest in the person of Mrs. A.
L. Gillispie, better known to the lovers
of light Opera as Christie MacDonald.
Mr. and Mrs. Gillispie and little Miss
Christie, whose home is in Tenafly, N. J.,
are here for a few weeks stay. Mrs. Gil
lispie finds many changes and improve
ments in town since her visit here a few
years ago.
Major A. Elliott Ranny Avas the atten
tive host at a dinner party at the Caro
lina on Saturday evening to which were
bidden Mrs. Tracy Lewis and her sister,
Miss Gertrude Meecham, both of Brook
lyn; Capt. and Mrs. A. T. Roberts of
Melrose, Scotland; Mr. and Mrs. Donald
Parsons, Mr. J. C. Daley of New York;
Mrs. Evelyn Spencer of Pinehurst, and
Mr. II. C. Buckminster of Boston. Each
lady found a bunch of fresh Pinehurst
violets at her place, giving the table a
festive and graceful touch.
Mrs. A. S. Gilman was the delightful
hostess at a card-party in the parlor of
the Carolina on Thursday of last week.
Mrs. Gilman has made many friends in
Pinehurst and her parties are always
large and representative gatherings.
There were four tables of Auction, the
prize winners being Mesdames W. B.
Lasher, C. G. Bartlett, J. T. Newton and
G. M. Howard.
The Monday morning card-parties at
the Carolina are well attended and much
enjoyed by the ladies, many of whom
are regular guests. The recent prize
winners were Mrs. W. B. Lasher, Mrs.
W. T. Barr, Mrs. L. E. Beall, Mrs. H. B.
Swoope, Mrs. A. S. Gilman, Mrs. V. L.
P. Shriver, and Miss Louise Patterson.
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Blackinton of North
Attleboro, Mass., who spent last season
in one of the Clover Leaf Apartments,
are at the Carolina for the season. The
lure of golf and the wonderful climate
of the Sand Hills proved too great to be
resisted and their many friends are glad
it was so.
The first Drag-Hunt of the season at
tracted a large gallery of interested folk
to watch the Hunt start from the west
end of the Carolina. A great deal of
panneling has been done in the vicinity
this season, and it was over a portion of
this that Mrs. Spencer took her party of
merry folk, riding hard after the anise-
bag and the dogs. In the saddle were
Miss "Buff" Cobb, Mr. Kenneth Hutch
ins of Boston, a house guest of Mr. II.
Bradford Lewis, Mrs. Leo F. F. Wanner,
Mr. A. H. Corwin of East Orange, N. J.,
Mr. W. C. Erion and Mr. L. II. Beer of
Buffalo, Mr. J. C. Thomas, Mrs. Evelyn
P. Spencer, Mr. William A. Baker of
Providence, and Mr. Gordon Cameron.
Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Patterson and
their two delightful daughters, Misses
Louise and Helen of Plainfield, N. J.,
were given a cordial welcome by their
many friends at the Carolina when they
arrived on Sunday morning. Miss Louise
wields a clever golf club, and is a great
addition to the golfing circles, while Miss
Helen, who is very musical and charming,
is always welcomed among the younger,
set.
The games at the Races are becoming
a most amusing feature each week and
are keenly enjoyed by the participants
as well as the onlookers. Many of the
guests enter and last week ten lovers of
good sport contested the four events.
Those taking part were : Miss Buff Cobb,
Miss Katherine Kolb of Philadel
phia, Annie Oakley, Mrs. Leo F. F. Wan
ner, Mrs. Evelyn P. Spencer, Mr. A. H.
Corwin of East Orange, Mr. James B.
Waller of Chicago, Mr. William A. Ba
ker of Providence, Mr. J. C. Thomas, and
Percy Alexander of Pinehurst, and Mr.

the winners of the contests were Mr.

Percy Alexander won the Musical Stalls.
