Shown Here March 17
Prof. Smith of Boston Univer
sity Brings Rare Collection to
Church of Wide Fellowship
Prof. H. Augustine Smith of Bos
ton University, world traveler and
lecturer on art, music and drama, will
set up his Temple of Religious Art
at the Church of Wide Fellowship on
Sunday night, March 17. The gallery
Is made up of rare color reproduc
tions, many In oils, of the master
pieces of Fra Angelico, Michelangelo,
Raphael, Correggio, Titian. Da Vinci,
and nineteenth century artists such
as Burne Jones, Millais, L’Hermitte,
von Uhde, Whistler, Oakley, Sar
gent, etc.
Prof. Smith has led American tour
parties through the European gal
leries such as the National and Ttate,
London, the Louvre, Paris, the Pitti
and Uffizi, Florence, the Vatican,
Rome, and galleries in Munich, Dres
den and Berlin. He will unlock the
hidden meanings of pictures by
means of a magic key—even the most
unnoticed will be fascinated in the
untutored will be fascinated in the
discovery of a new continent (that
of symbolism in painting). If there is
time. Prof. Smith will pose one or two
of the pictures, using adults and chil
dren out of his audience, for his Liv
ing Pictures.
This famous Boston Temple of Art
has been exhibited in the finest halls
and art galleries in the country, such
as the Cleveland and Toledo art mu
seums, the Dayton art gallery, the
Chicago La Salle Hotel Salon, the
Cincinnati Music Hall. New pictures
are being added all the time and new
devices used to interest the most hard
boiled. This gallery will prove the
wisdom of the old Chinese proverb—

I Subject of Meeting^
Exten.sion Forester To Spenjd
! Next Friday Overseeing
I Work in County
By E. H. (JAKRISON,
County Agent
R. W. Graeber, Extension Forester,
will spend March 15th in this county
going over some of the work being
done at this time. The principal meet
ing at 9:30 will be held at the pro
ject now being carried on by Colin
G. Spencer on the Tinner’s Shop road.
The work which Mr. Spencer is do
ing is some of the most interesting
in the county and should be a good
example for many others to follow.
There .should be and always will be
plenty of timber in this county if
those who have this land now would
follow a different system of cutting
this. The common practice has been
to cut anything as it came. Where
the system as outlined by the Forest
Service is followed, there will be a
crop of timber coming on all the time
and there will be no barrow and
eroded hills left to wash away. I hope
that everyone who has timber will at
tend this meeting.
On this project of Mr. Spencer’s,
trees have been planted which have
made rapid growth since they were
planted, and you will have an op
portunity to see others which have
just been planted and the methods
followed in this work. Please make
a special effort to be there and bring
a car full with you when you come.
I am sure that you will find this a
morning very profitably spent and
that you will also find this a very in
teresting meeting.

plete plans for operating the hotel,
they are already making such minor
repairs to the buildings as were ne
cessitated by its having been closed
for four years and have arranged to
have the golf course restored to per
fect condition during the coming
summer.
The property comprises besides the
Inn itself with its contents, a sepa
rate sei-vants’ house and a caddy
bouse, 500 acres of land including
250 building lots, and an 18-hole Don
ald Ross golf course.
The Pine Needles Inn, only fire
proof hostelry in this section, is a
five-story brick-and-steel building
with 80 guest rooms, kitchen and us
ual public spaces fully and tastefully
furnished and thoroughly equipped.
It was built In 1927 from plans pre
pared by the late Lyman H. Slse, of
Boston, and cost with land, shrubbery
and other improvements, $750,000.
The portion completed was designed
as the first unit of a larger struc
ture with wings projecting at angles
toward the front from either end. It
was successfully operated with Ar
thur Richardson as manager until
the end of the season of 1930-31, since
which time it has remained closed.
Situated four miles from Pinehurst,
two miles from Southern Pines, on
a hill commanding a broad view of

—than of “Roll, River.”
One gathered that the title was
giving him a little trouble. He did
not want a title with a comma in it,
he explained, and yet he wanted to
bring the rolling river into the title
because it was the situs and the sym
bol of his story. The new novel con
cerns three generations of small gen
try in a Mid-weatern river town, each
generation thinking it is making a
great deal of progress dnd is smarter
than the others because it avoids the
others’ mistakes, but each blithely
going ahead making mistakes just
a» disastrous on its own. The action
takes place between 1885 and the
present. The first part of the novel
has been serialized in “Scribners” as
“The Dark Shore.”
Novel of the Old South
Mr. Boyd was diverted from speak
ing of his present novel to the one he
hopes to do some day—a realistic
novel of the Old South.
'Somebody ought to write such a
novel and tell the truth about the
South in those days,” he said. ‘You
get the idea from the romantic novels
that everybody was rich, charming
and cultured there before the war,
and that living was gracious. As a
matter of fact, even in the best homes
the people did not live verj’ well.
They had lots of slaves to work for
them, but for the most part the ar
rangement wasn't satisfactory.
“You ought to read some of the old
diaries in my family (about how
Southern women envied Northern
women their paid help. The point was
that in the South people could not
fire their slaves who wouldn’t work;
the only thing they could do was sell
them down the river and take on
other field hands and try to train
them up.
“It all boils down to this, I sup
pose; The Negro has always been
the real master in the South. The
Civil War was fought to keep him a
slave not so much from the economic
standpoint ai from the fear of what
would happen if 2,000,000 or 3,000,-
000 were turned loose on the white
population. Emancipation turned out
to be a good thing rather than a bad
thing, but Southerners couldn’t be
expected to see it at that time, terri
fied as they were at what had hap
pened in Haiti and in Mantinque."
FIRE DESTROYS HOUSE
The fire alarm brought out the
Southern Pines apparatus in record
time shortly after 10 o’clock last Fri
day morning, but the run to West
Southern Pines was Ineffectual, a de
layed alarm giving the fire time to
raze the three-room dwelling of Sar-
abell Allen at Gaines street and Wis
consin avenue. As the owner was
away nothing was saved.

C'H.AMFION HERE MONDAY
Erwin Rudolph is to appear at.
Straka's billiard parlor on East
Broad street. Southern Pines on Mon
day, March 11 and men and women,
interested in billiards should not fail
to take advantage of his visit. Ru
dolph will give an exhibition at pock

Rudolph held the world's title in
1927, 1930, and 1931 as well as in
1933 and 1934, losing the latter to
Andrew Ponzi in a challenge match.
He was born in Cleveland, Ohio in
1893, and is of Bohemian descent.
He has been playing billiards for 23
year.s. During his career as a violin
ist in a theatre in Cleveland Rudolph
decided to become seriously interest
ed in the billiard game and gave up
his musical profession to enter one
of the world's tournaments.
It was no easy road for Rudolph at
first but it w’as a question of “mak
ing ’em or starving.” After a short
time he succeeded in “making ’em”
and as a result is today recognized
as one of the few top-notchers in
the game.
