FOB OPENING TOURNAMENT
Fifty-one golfers, good and bad,
have joined the Yadkin Golf Club
for the summer season at the Pine
hurst Country Club to date, and 46
have qualified in the opening touAia-
ment. That there are many good
golfers in the group is revealed by
the fact that It took 77 or better to
get into the first division for the
opening event, me first round of
which will be finished by May 4th.
these campaigns have contributed to
improve attendance; and as a result,
grade repeaters are reduced. It cer
tainly seems that this activity
might be enlarged and an extension
of health work in the public schools
all along the line be undertaken.

TWIN HOUSES ON OLD ROAD
TO PINEHURST BURN DOWN
May Day in Southern PSnes was
quiet until just before midnight when
the clamor of the fire alarm brought
not only the fire department but
most of the population of the town
to tne old Chandler houses, known to
three generations as the “twin houses”
on the old Pinehurst road west of
Leak street. This was the third time
within two years, but this time the
alarm came too late and all the fire
men could do was to protect the
nearby buildings from flying sparks,
the "twin houses” being reduced to
ashes with most of the effects of the
three colored families occupying the
premises.
