While the intensive training of trotters and pacers in preparation for the contests to take place on the grand circuit and other racing cen ters next summer will not material ize for a while yet, horses being fitted and kept in .condition for the weekly matinees, may be seen frequently at top speed or near it, being prepped to compete with each other on race day. The next matinee will be held on Wednesday, January 28th, with the following classes: Fifth Annual Car olina Trot; Fifth Annual Country Club Pace; First Annual Mid-South Class.

At Pinehurst What is most certainly the cleverest display of brilliant acting that film audiences have been privileged to see in many months will be on parade at the Pinehurst Theatre this Friday af- emoon and nigh. “The Royal Family of Broadway” is based on the famous play, '‘The Royal Family,” by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber. It depicts the home life of a leading fam ily of American stage performers well known to every theatre goer not only in America but in Europe. But it is not the impressive quality of the original playwriting alone which makes this play a wonderful movie. Most of the splendid attributes of this production are found in the stirring craftsmanship of Frederic March, Ina Claire, Henrietta Crossman and Mary Brian—as presentable a quartet of sterling actors as one could wish for.

At the Annual meeting of the Citi zens Bank and Trust Co., held at the bank January 13th, there was a very good representation, more than 80 per cent of the stock being represent ed. The result of the election of-Direc tors for the coming year was that the former Board was unanimously re elected. The President’s report for the year 1930 was read and commented on. This showed that the bank had had a fairly good year and met the expectations of the stockholders who were surprised that the business had held up so well under existing depress ed conditions. It was voted to accept and file the report and to commend the entire force for it. A meeting of the directors was held immediately after the adjournment of the stockholders meeting, which re sulted in the unanimous election of Joseph E. Bernstein, chairman of the i fertile (Continued frdm page one) tion of many of the crops that are to this day foremost among* the agricul tural products.

When Buffalo Bill was carrying on his Wild Show he went to the Tuscarora reservation to se cure a chief to tour with him, and this young man, then Chief Rolling Bear of the Tuscaroras, joined the picturesque outfit. It gave him a great advantage of travel, which he continued for some time, but ultimate ly. returned, and in due time he wa> advanced to be the head of the fed eration of the six tribes. He talk English intelligently, and is well ip, formed on many things not as fam/- iar to many white men as the\ might be.

The duration of his stay in the South he does not know, as he want- to investigate the ownership of thj lands and the claim of his tribe the heritage they leased to the whitt men some two centuries ago, and he does not know what progress he wl; make in his investigations. The claim are in the eastern part of the stat‘d, principally in the Neuse and Ror< noke river country. cade, “The Queen’s Husband,” by Robert E. Sherwood, has found its way into Hollywood studios and has emerged as a notable talking picture. For reasons known only to the pro ducers, the title has been changed to “The Royal Bed,” which in no way al ters the delightful comedy that pleas ed so many thousands during its long New York run. This (picture too con tains a remarkable cast headed by Lowell Sherman, -supported by Mary Astor, Anthony Bushell, Robert War wick, Gilbert Emery and that grand j stage artiste, Nance O’Neal. At Southern Pines It is surprising that producers have never given more attention to the pioneer era of American history as a source of story material. Metro-Gold- wyn-Mayer has been highly success ful with “The Great Meadow,” which is the attraction at the Southern Pines Theatre, this Thursday, Friday and Saturday, using as a background that period that embodied great hardship and adventure. “The Great Meadow” is a story of tTie settling of Kentucky. It begins in Virginia Colony with the call from Daniel Boone to the young people to make the long and danger ous trek through the mountains to th j vallev “out West.” Eleanor CAROLINA THeatres INA CLAIRE FREDRIC MARCH "TYve PARAMOUNT PICTURE I Coach or Business Coups Ride in COMFORT You no longer need deny yourself the plea sure of an easy-riding car.

Some of the folks wno apply for relief do not make out a good case. But in the main this movement is proving of positive relief, and those who have it in hand are anxious to see many calls for work that needs to be done, both for the sake of providing employment as well as to improve the general appearance of the lands and surroundings of the whole Sandhills, country. Southern Pines relief forces are planning some defiriite work on a rather generous plan, and it is believed that in that quarter some valuable helps in de velopment and in providing employ- j ment will be announced ’*n a few j I days.

There is a great deal about sex in this book, as there must be in any book written about people of today. After the numerous cheap and flashy novels which are"always dealing lur idly with the subject, it is a relief and a satisfaction to find that in Mr. Burt we have today at least one nov elist who can write about sex broad ly, with sanity and truth, and with out one single trace of cheapness. He brings out to the fullest extent the power, beauty and importance of sex in modern life, and gives it the dig nity it deserves. In short, “Festival” is a stimulating, up-to-the-minute, and very personal book, written by a man who is a phil osopher and a poet, as well as a first I rate novelist.
