Cottage Colony At Pinehurst Is On Hand Earlier Stapon Promises to Be One of Best in History of This North Carolina Resort Special fo' The Eagle Pinehurst, N. Dec. 12 Pine- hurst's 36th season, already several weeks on its way, shows promise of being one of the most interesting in the history of the favorite North Carolina resort.

The homes of the cottage colony filled earlier this season than in any previous year, while the hotels have registered a constant flow of guests which started with their opening. The resort was blessed with an unusually mild Fall season, and as a consequence the forests and verdure which make the Sandhills one of the beauty spots of the South are more attractive than ever. The result of the absence of storms has been to furnish game hunters an exceptionally bountiful supply of turkey, quail and other birds, while deer also have been reported most plentiful, Pinehurst primarily is noted for its wonderful chain of golf courses. Seven beautiful links designed and constructed by Donald J. Ross, famous designer of golf courses, supply the many thousands who visit Pinehurst each season with unrivaled sport.

These courses, built through lanes of long leafed pine forest, are a delight to the eye, and to the eclectic golfer they are the acme in links. The grass tees, and on the No. 2 championship course, the sand and grass greens, the heavily grassed yet lightning fast fairways and unexcelled In the world. The courses are being meticulously cared for, and this year, with the woods so resplendent, they offer an Incomparable pleasure ground for the links lover. Pinehurst has one of the finest tennis layouts in the South, and two courts added last year to the four of previous years has provided guests who like the court game a supply ample for the needs of even a busy resort like Pinehurst.

Over these courts each season the Davis Cup teams and other national stars play in tournaments calling for the best kind of court. Pinehurst has such, and great galleries watch the tournaments. The polo fields of Pinehurst, three in all, are used three times a week all through the season for exciting matches between noted players. The fields are in a beautiful wooded setting. The gun club trapshootihg and rifle range of Pinehurst is one of the finest In the country.

Shoots are held all the season, some every day in the week, others weekly, while twice a year two open target tournaments bring world-famed marksmen to the range In competition. The race track of the Pinehurst Matinee club Is the scene almost weekly throughout the season of trotting and pacing racing and amateur riding gymkhanas which attract big throngs to the meets. Qrand Circuit trotters and pacers are trained on the track to the number of 130. One of the most attractive archery ranges in the South is that of the Pinehurst Archers, at the Pinehurst Country Club. Here the most expert tuition is available, and tournaments are held weekly.

Holiday to ft. Al Special to The Eagle Nassau, Bahamas, Dec. 12 Nassau in the Bahama Islands, quaint and entrancing alike in architecture, customs and old-world atmosphere, occupies a romantic place in human history. On a nearby island Columbus landed on his voyage of discovery, and it was to these islands that Ponce de Leon sailed in 1512 in quest of the legendary Fountain of Youth. Once the principal lair of the pirates of adventurous days of the Spanish main, many reminders of Blackboard, or Edward Teach, remain and the land Is teeming with history and redolent of romance.

Yulellde in Tropics To the northerner a yuletide in the tropics, where bathing can be enjoyed at Christmas time, is a distinct novelty. Paradise Beach, with its curving half circle of coral Sands, Is known the world over for its superb bathing, its waters being opaline and crystal clear and the temperature seldom varies.

Wide verandas encircle thereto of the sleeping floors, with Freeh doors opening from each chamber.

The tropical tea gardens are the rendezvous of the smart set and mingling together will be found hotel guests, members of the American cottage colony, British officials and residents, and visitors from the stately yachts lying at anchor in the harbor. Night life irt Nassau revolves around the New Colonial Grill, which is the fashionable place for dinner and late supper parties and for dancing. On moonlight nights the orchestra plays for dancing In the open-air pavilion in the gardens, with only a tropical sky above. For the lover of golf there is a picturesque course at the Bahamas Country Club, with Jock Hutchison as pro, and the additional advantage of the opportunity for a dtp after the game on the club's own private strip of bathing beach. American Cottage Colony A visit to the marvelous sea gardens, to be viewed through glass-bottomed boats, is but a 30-min-ute sail and the pellucid water makes visible the unique coral formations, sea fans, star.

Well, they are. The Canary Islands He to the west of the southwestern coast of Morocco, Africa. These were formely known as the Fortunate Islands, the "home of the blessed," and were familiar to the ancient Phoenicians. Their existence came to the knowledge of Juba, king of Mauritania, whose account of an expedition" to these islands in the year 40 B. C.

was preserved by the Elder Pliny. The Canaries are the summits of submarine mountains, the tips of the submerged continent of Atlantis, perhaps. a Visit to Rio Travelers generally agree that Rio de Janeiro, capital of Brazil, has a scenic setting that is magnificent. Nowhere else is there such a combination of sea and land. Mountains; valleys, beaches and bays make it a natural masterpiece.

Prominent in every respect are the Sugar Loaf and the still loftier peak, Corcovado. The former is a cone of bare granite 1,200 feet high, standing like a sehtinel at the entrance to the harbor. Other lofty crags are Tijuca and Gavea, rising out of billowy seas of swaying verdure, i -r A wonderful view Of the city, bay and the ocean beyond may be obtained from steep Corcovado, 2,000 feet high, rising immediately behind the city. In the view lies the beautiful Avenlda Beira Mar, a park-like semi-circular thoroughfare fronting on one of the bays with which the city abounds.
