Brown DeLories Co Boston reports Pinehurst Outlook from November 7 1900 praising Pinehurst for winter escape. Mentions Holly Inn Carolina Inn openings in December and January and the town wiring progress with 2800 lights and 150 hp engines under A C Butler supervision.
The power house has more than doubled capacity since last season with two new 125 horsepower boilers. A large fire pump provides town and Carolina water, and the brick steel rebuild supports sustained operations. All machinery has been overhauled for reliable service supplying trolley power, lights, ice plant, printing office, elevator, pumping station, steam laundry, and wood shed.
A description of a clean, well managed dairy farm supplying Pinehurst. The barn houses about twenty five cows in a large, ventilated, orderly setup with attention to detail and sanitation for quality milk from a trusted source.
The Pinehurst livery, run by Mr. Frank N. Carpenter, offers a range from donkey carts to four seated excursion wagons. Pomp the donkey charms children, while the stable has grown with more horses, new carriages, and stylish riding horses to meet patron demands.
The Pinehurst School House sits on the road to the golf links at the Village Green with ample playgrounds and well chosen Jersey stock. It features silos, a spacious loft for hay and lay storage, a new milk room, and a well supplying clean water. Managed by Mr. McGregor of North Reading, Mass., it emphasizes good drainage, a fine oak and pine grove, violets, pinks, rose beds, a flag stall with an American flag, and well furnished interiors. Miss Florence E. Wilcox, Smith College graduate, will oversee this season, promising educational advantages equal to northern schools.
An advertising line promotes a six month subscription to OvuTLOOK for fifty cents, inviting readers to sign up at a reduced introductory rate. The notice presents a rapid, economy driven call to action.
The Village Hall is a handsome building with a seating capacity for four hundred. It features a large stage with dressing rooms, well selected scenery, and all the paraphernalia for performances and gatherings.
The village hall features many ceiling hanging electric lights and steam heating. A managers’ office sits near the front beside the main entrance. Above the stage the motto Pro Deo Et Patria recalls Man-God and country. Weekday village entertainments and Sunday religious services are held here, with Rev. Gregory providing Episcopal ministry in the afternoon.
A drummer in a quiet railroad station with an hour and a half to wait finds entertainment in a single silver certificate. He studies the bill’s figures and the Washington image, recalls his wedding trip, ponders the Constitution, and reads names of statesmen, soldiers, and authors along the bill. The time passes pleasantly and thoughtfully.
