ranked third, Miss Dorothy Barber, win
ner of races, Miss Betty Bicknell and
Miss Virginia Slayton with her brothers,
II. E. Slayton and II. K. Slayton; W. H.
Weller, familiar on the track, and Harry
Cross and J. Skinner.
The egg contest, that final test for the
pony marketer, was, a distinct triumph
for the Slayton family. II. E. Slayton
took the loving cup home with him in
memory of the wonderful ride, and II. K.
the recollections of a close finish.
But none could meet Miss Barber on
equal terms in that last remnant of the
tourney days, the mad career with lance
in rest, this time directed at the iron ring
instead of the vizor top, but none the
less accurate for all that. Five times she
speared the ring, while in close competi
tion with four to their credit came Miss
Crow, Harry Cross and W; H. Weller.
Tim Sandhill Hunt
A volume of poetry would not avail to
convey the striking scene and the
joys of the chase one half so well as the
accompanying pictures of the drag
hunt of the Weymouth Hounds at His
toric Bethesda Church. There was a full
cry and a happy party from the village
joined with the masters of the hunt from
Southern Pines and the county people of
the Sandhills on that occasion. A few
are shown in the print. The role call in
cluded Miss Katharine O'Rourke, Master
Franklin Ovis, Master Warren Bicknell,
Miss Bettie Bicknell, Miss Frances Bick
nell, Miss Katherine Wing, Mrs. M. B.
Johnson, Mr. W. C. Blanding, Mr. W. H.
Weller, Mr. Sam Ward'well, Miss Thehna
Mertz, Mr. Nat Hurd, Miss Dorothy Bar
ber, Mrs. F. B. Moneypenny, Mr. Harold
Fisher, Mr. and Mrs. George G. Leach.
Crying- Pan Picnic
And now the stables are depleted, and
once again all those fond of the saddle
and the good company set out Tuesday
for the lanes and sandy paths to the
grove at Ray's Old Mill, to know the
pleasures of a camp luncheon and bivouac
on the trail. Here hang frying pans at
the saddle-bow, and rashers of bacon, and
the loot from the ranches and the hen
houses of the Drowning Creek region.
For those who ride are fond of the open
ways, and the broad sky, and distance, and
a bright fire by a clear stream. Many
are the expeditions they take unheralded
into the forest ways, this brotherhood of
horsemen, and great is their changing
membership. But this time the recorder
has the muster of the rank and file
as follows: Mrs. Daisy Porter, Miss
Rena Maitland, Miss Fredrica Kauffman,
Mr. Harry Cross, Master Harvey Slay
ton, Jr., Master Hoyt Slayton, Miss Vir
ginia Slayton, Miss Bettie Bicknell Miss
Katharine Vaughn, Miss Barbara
Vaughn, Master Alfred Oppenheim, Miss
Nancy Richmond, Mr. and Mrs. George
C. Leach.

This is a photograph of Grove Park Inn, Sunset Mountain,
Asheville, N. C., the finest Resort Hotel in the world. It is
absolutely fireproof and open all the year.
The 120-acre, 18-hole golf course is the finest in the South it is a blue grass
course. All the water used at the Inn comes from the slopes of Mount Mitchell, the
highest mountain east of the Eockies, nearly seven thousand feet altitude. The milk
and cream come from Biltmore Dairy on the estate of the late Geo. W. Vanderbilt.
It is the cleanest, most Sanitary hotel ever built. Every floor is tile. Every
bedroom has Mosaic tile covered with French Rugs made at Aubusson, Prance.
The foods are the finest money can buy. The kitchen is spotless white tile to the
roof and pure white Mosaic tile floors. The buildings are built of great mountain
boulders some otf the walls are five feet thick boulders weighing as much as
four tons each. : : ; , j
We are three and a half miles from the railroad. The street cars are not
allowed to come near enough to be heard. We burn coke not soft coal. Auto
mobiles not allowed near the building during the night. Thus we have no smoke,
no dust, no train noise. We have pure air, common-sense, digestible food, quiet in
the bedrooms at night, the finest Orchestra outside of New York and Boston, a great
organ, and an atmosphere where refined people and busy business men with their
families find great comfort and a good time.
Call us over long distance at our expense or inquire
