Hardee, who is the first of the office force to build a house here. He has been here for the past four years and both he and Mrs. Hardee have made a host of warm friends who will be pleased to learn they have concluded to make Pinehurst a permanent home. A NEW APARTMENT HOUSE Just before passing the railroad track near the Greenhouses we approach the ' ' Thistle, ' ' a new apartment house filling a long felt want that has grown to be an absolute necessity. The building will comprise four tenaments of three rooms and bath each. These apartments are virtually separate houses under one roof. Each has a separate furnace with separate cellar, and all have separate entrances. These will be rented furnished and the number of applications has surpassed ex pectation, the demand ' proving conclu sively that the building will be a profita ble investment. seen in a single day, but one should see by all means, Chimborazo Park, and the old church in which Patrick Henry de claimed "Give me liberty o give me death.' ' While there are numerous good hotels in Richmond, the most attractive from the tourist's standpoint is The Jefferson, far enough away from the busi ness section to ensure quiet, and yet close enough to be convenient to all points of. interest. In this hotel is an old statue of Thomas Jefferson a famous work of art. One should not attempt to drive beyond Eichmond for the night, because Petersburg is sadly lacking in hotel ac commodations, even if they were not crowded with workers from the powder mills at Hopewell. An early start from The Jefferson, however, will enable one to spend some time in visiting the his toric points of Petersburg, which include the crater made by blowing up the Con federate works in 1864. It was from this point that Lee made his final retreat to Appomattox. At SO miles we come to the Nordan at South Hill where we stop for luncheon', continuing to Durham for the night at The Malbourne. This is our t ,t(m?i -tin-.:! v ft ; jt I : f C ON THE LUMIfEE RIVER TRIP Just across the street from this is "Danny" Black's new boarding house. "Danny" has for many years run a boarding house in the "Palmetto," but has finally concluded he has paid all the rent he can afford to and has purchased a lot and is building a home for himself. And better and more important than all else, he has recently taken unto himself a wife. His new house will have eight rooms and will be open Winter and Sum mer, and will afford shelter and comfort to many of the permanent residents who will board there. jnOIOlHAG TO PlNEIICnST (Concluded from page eighteen) Shortly after crossing the historic Chica hominy, the statue of J. E. B. Stuart is seen on the right commemorating the spot where he fell wounded in battle. The direct route enters Richmond via Cham berlyn Avenue, but a better idea of the beauty of the city may be obtained by making a detour to the right and coming in on Monument Avenue which takes its name from the many statues and monu ments which adprn the wide roadway. Richmond has too many attractions to be enumerated in a short sketch, or to be longest day's run, but nearly all of it is good sand-clay upon which the wheeling is excellent. There is one stretch of worn macadam near the North Carolina line, and in places the dragging of the road has been sadly neglected, but by careful driving the run can be comfortably made in seven or eight hours. The final drive to Pinehurst from Dur ham may be made in two ways, the shorter and all things considered the better way being to turn right at Carey, which by the way makes the northern limit of the long leaf pine. We then pas3 through a sandy pine district coming at last to the won derful high and rolling section, in the center of which is Pinehurst, the most remarkable Winter resort in America. The longer way from Durham will ap peal to those who wish to visit Raleigh, the capitol of North Carolina, and the home of the present Secretary of the Navy. This route continues west to Smithfield, in the center of the lumber district, and follows the Cape Fear River to Fayetteville, founded by the Scotch who fled their own country after th battle of Culloden. Here lived Flora Macdonald, and her husband who later commanded a force of British soldier during the Revolution.
