Philadelphia Office : 608 Perry Bldg., 16th and Chestnut SU PINEHURST'S WATER SUPPLY Consulting Engineer J. L. Ludlow of State Board Describes It Virgin Water Shed Ileserve Conserve Wboleiome .Purity of Unusually High Standard ot Quality THE COMPLETION of Pinehurst's new water supply, anticipating as it does future needs in accordance with the high standards of modern re quirements, is a gratify ing evidence of Village perfection. Consulting Engineer J. L. Ludlow of the North Car olina State Board of Health, under whose direction as supervising engineer the work has been carried forward, regards the supply as ideal. "North Carollna,"he writes,"has very advanced laws governing the protection of public water jig 3S use of golfing, but remaining in its virgin state, reserved wholly to water supply purposes and conserving its utmost purity. This Insures a quality of water supply as pure and wholesome as nature affords. But to make assurance doub ly sure and to remove any taint of color that may result from the leaves and trees which abound on the water shed, the water will be filtered through a sand filter of the English type. Thus Mr. Tufts succeeds in his desire to furnish his patrons a quality of water for drinking and other domestic uses that is Unsurpassed, having an unusually high standard of "pure -and whole some" quality as well as being soft and otherwise physically attractive for the bath and other do mestic uses. "This water is distributed from an elevated tank of sufficient capacity and height to ensure at all times an abundance under such pressure as to meet the requirements of all service, including the protection from fire of the property and the life of residents." (Signed) J. L. Ludlow. NOTE.-Mr. Ludlow is also Chairman of the Sanitary Engineering Section of the American Public Health Association, a Director of the National Association for the Prevention of Tubeiculosis, and a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers, New England Water Works Association, American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a sani tary and water supply expert of National prominence. E ditor. HOTEL CAROLINA "HOME" TO THOUSANDS supplies which apply also to all public resort water supplies. The State Board of Health is given wide latitude in flxlnsr rules and regula tions covering the occupancy of water sheds that are used for public supplies and the methods useful for conserving a high hygienic standard of the water furnished the public. This end is sought through frequent inspections of the source of supply as well as through chemicaland bacterial analyses at the State Laboratory of Hygiene by expert analysts under the direction of a very accomplished and skillful Director, Dr. u. A. biiore. This authority is exercised by the Board with great vigilance. "Of my personal knowledge, covering several years of intimate acquaintance with the matter, I may say that Mr. Leonard Tufts, owner of Pinehurst, has been most scrupulous and consist ant in complying with all the requirements and suggestions of the Board in his efforts to secure for Pinehurst a public water supply of the high est integrity and hygienic standard of purity. His solicitude to this end has been unusually conspicuous, showing a keen appreciatl i, of the importance of a pure water supply as an essen tial adjunct to a resort for health and recreation. "The underground source from which the sup! ply has hitherto and is now partially obtained has been safeguarded with the greatest care. The new supply is taken from a small water shed in the sand hills,, which abound in the vicinity of Pinehurst. This water shed is entirolv nninh.h I ited and no even given over to cultivation or to MOORE CO. fAItK ASSOCIATION Firat Important Work Beautlflcation of llonlevard to Jackson Spring The Moore County Park Association, organized last winter, has entered upon its first important work in the general plan through acquistion of reservations along the Pinehurst-Jackson Springs road. The completed result will be a boulevard one hundred and twenty feet wide and the necessary land for the pur pose has been contributed very largely by property owners. An important branch of the work to be undertaken during the present season will be the solicitation of funds to be used in development of natural attractions and the permanent preservation of distinctive characteristics along public highways. Landscape Architect Warren II. Man ning of Boston will act as advisor. Send The Outlook to Friends, saves letter writing! It A:
