Robinson, Owner and Hanager THIS THE SPORT OF KINGS Once More Mellow Notes of Horn Will Draw Fox Hunters Together. Usual Equestrian Gymkhana Frolic are Planned and Many will En joy Horseback Hiding:. OSSIBLY the southern farmer who trades a milk-giving cow of which his family is sadly in need, for a fox hound, is a criminal, but if tried before a jury of twelve good and true fox hunters, the chances are that lie would be given the price of the cow and set free ! It is well enough for those un familiar with the sport to scoff, but once get its spirit throbbing in your veins and the wild cry of the pack ringing in your ears, and there'll be kindliness in your heart ever after for the man to whom the chase is an "appetite." Surely there is something in store for those who 'round a campfire in the field, and break fast it is, not alone in name, for the " eookee " wagon carries not only neces sities, but luxuries. Lunchepns and din ners also there are at the hotels, trips to distant points ; merry gatherings always, for Pinehurst makes much of the social side of fox hunting and among its devo tees it claims- many whom the veterans style " novices." Riding will be even more general than in the past for Manager Mundy of the Village stable, has raked the south "with a fine tooth comb," as he ex presses it, to secure the best of saddle horses and the result is a string of beau tiful animals which would be a credit to any private stable. "Gaited" and " straight gaited " steeds there are, rang ing all the way from the pony class for children, to the spirited hunter for the expert, with special care to the selection of animals suited to the needs of the women who must possess absolute con fidence in their mounts to enjoy the rec reation. The string of driving horses is exceptionally fine and the equipment of the stable has been thoroughly gone over, to all intents and purposes fresh from carriage factory, harness shop and saddlery. 'V&Sf M Li?:. it. n " ONCE MORE THE CONGENIAL GROUP WILL GATHER." have never experienced its joys, and the opportunities for acquiring knowledge here this season will be large, for this " the sport of kings," is now thoroughly established, ranking in popularity with golf, shooting, tennis and other outdoor diversions which include nearly all of those enjoyed by Americans. Many fine dogs have been added to the local pack and thus early lovers of the chase are enjoying preliminary working-out runs and plans are making for regular semi-weekly hunts during the season. Once more the mellow notes of the horn will draw the congenial group together in the soft grey of early dawn, once more the woods will ring with the the music of the pack and the wild halloo of the huntsman. Happy faced the group will return when the sun is high, riding in the lead, the proud possessor of the brush; gathering upon the hotel veranda to run the race again" in the presence of an interested group of lis teners. , No hunt would be complete without the breakfast which Virginians serve in buffet style before the blazing fire place of the dining roomfand which Pinehurst has introduced on .newbnesj The committee in charge of the usual equestrian gymkhanas is plannfng a varied program which will include many novelties. No entertainment feature of the Village is more keenly anticipated and as a result Pinehurst turns out en masse when these amusing sports are held. Designed primarily to entertain and to interest all classes of riders, the programs are, naturally, of a character which do not require expert skill, but, nevertheless, there are interwoven many events which test the nerve of even the most fearless equestrian and which the crowd : follows with the same interest that characterizes the grandstand throng at Bennings. Taken all in all no recreation is more generally enjoyed than riding and driv ing and it is doubtful, indeed, if the time will ever come when the horse will cease to be one of the most important factors for the enjoyment of outdoor life among those who gather here. ' Koveltles at tho Studio. Photographer E. L. Merrow is showr ing an attractive line of novelties at the Studio; of especial interest as the Holi day season approaches..
