A 1910 Pinehurst edition reprints Carolyn Wells verses from Smart Set about a fool who buys gifts for an ungrateful lady. The poem mocks taste thrift and pride, ending with the lesson that the woman could never be pleased or satisfied. It is presented under historical masthead notes and publishing details.
The piece riffs on holiday repetition, noting repeated items from slippers to stockings and Santa, lampooning festive clichés. It ends with a wry nod to "Old, yet new" and the same old merry feeling.
The Country Club lists a full season of golf and related events including the Seventh Annual Holiday Week, Midwinter, St Valentine and Spring tournaments, women’s St Valentine, the Club Championship, United North and South events for both women and open divisions, amateur four ball, and the Pinehurst Championships. Handicap and weekly events run throughout the season with detailed programs available from the Pinehurst General Office.
Advance entries for the seventh annual Holiday Week Golf Tournament on December 29 30 and 31 show a strong field and fast play. The event will feature three divisions of sixteen players each.
A garbled passage lists golf scoring nicknames and the odd mnemonic system. It mentions canary for one below par and eagle for two under, with terms like skunk and elephant tied to minus scores. The text reads as a curious, unclear set of codes from a vintage scoreboard or glossary.
A complete schedule lists arriving and departing trains with times and platforms. It includes service intervals, station names, and destinations, helping passengers plan connections and daily travel.
Mail schedule lists departures from Pinehurst at 8:30 A.M. to the south, 6:30 P.M. to the north, and 7:45 P.M. for another north service. It notes that all registered rail arrives at 9:30 P.M. and leaves at 6:00 P.M.
