The Summer’s Growth
BION BUTLER
f t1^ there is anything about Pinehurst that I appreciate
III more than all the rest it is the Midland road, which is
one place in the village where I never get lost, and the
string of new houses out that road shows that Pinehurst is
starting to build in a quarter of the village in which 1 can find
my way around and from which I can find my way home. The
first time I ever saw Pinehurst I came in that road, past the
Van Lindley orchard. It was riot much of a road, and Pine
hurst was not much more than the road. James W. Tufts
was just getting his settlement under way. I was not great
ly impressed with either the road or the settlement. But
I have seen both the road and the village grow, and each
year it has been a continued story of a lot of building and
development, and this year is no exception.
Three separate centers of expansion appeal to me this
season. Possibly the most radical is the shift of a quarter
of a mile of the railroad, the removal of the freight and pas
senger station several hundred yards to the east, and the
construction near the new station of a new home for the
Pinehurst Warehouses. This all goes in with the relocation
of the state highway from Greensboro to Wilmington, which
passes where the old station stood, past where the new loca
tion has been made, by an underpass beneath the railroad,
and the road hard-surfaced from Pinehurst to the Hoke
county line, and united at the underpass with another hard
road that runs through the village and connects with the-oiled
road to Carthage where the oiled road to Sanford and the hard
road from the north is reached. Centering there at the neW
site of the station is * probably a hundred thousand dollars
worth of improvement, counting the paved roads, the moved
railroad, the new buildings, and the available building sites
that will be opened by the removal of the old track, the sta
tion and the warehouse. The good roads work is highly im
portant. During the summer Pinehurst has been given that
outlet by Carthage to a contact with the hard surface that
is* soon to reach the Virginia line on the way to Washington
and Richmond. When the paving of a short link between
Sanford and Woodward's bridge is finished, and which is now
