Moonlight Horseback Ride ‘ i Is Enjoyed at Skyland ! SKYLAND, Va., August 16.—Princi- pal among the events which transpired at Skyland during the past week was |a combination dance and moonlight | horseback _ride to Indian Powwow Grounds, which took place in the mid- |dle of the week. These unique enter- | tainments are arranged to take place on | moonlight nights when the weather is | fine. As there has been no rain for two | months, with “the exception of one | shower, conditions were perfect for such | an evening. Guests came to the dance in informal dress, and refreshments | were served at 10 o'clock. At 10:15 the bugle was sounded, and all those who | wished to participate were invited by Mr. Pollock to don their riding cloth- |ing and join in_ the moonlight ride. | which began at 10:30 o'clock. One of | the colored grooms, with a hunting | horn, gave appropriate music, “A-Hunt- |ing, 'a-Hunting We Go," etc.—appro- | priate, except that there was no hunt- ing. But a most picturesque and en- joyable ride was enjoyed over the| | mountain trails beneath the lofty pines and hemlocks, through which the bril- | liant full moon filtered, and on into the | bright pasture lands, across a couple of | bridges, deep in the Limberlost Swamp, |and finally descending into the little | amphitheater on the edge of the moun- | tain known as the Powwow Grounds. | "As the party rode into the open moonlit amphitheater, where many rus- | tic logs furnished seats. grouped around a blazing bonfire, which was_lighted as the party approached, the 38 partici- |pants in’ the ride were thrilled by the romantic surroundings and the beauties | of the scenes. There was one sad note |to the party. In the not too far away | distance could be plainly seen the lurid lines of forest fires, some 15 miles| | away. After the party dismounted and grooms led the horses to the edge of the forest opening, there followed a | jolly " festival of singing and music | around the campfire. Old-time South- | ern_plantation songs, interspersed with | modern ones, and participated in by all, | were led by Mr. Larry Hurdle with his ilver cornet. Mr. Hurdle is the official | bugler "annually ‘at the Laurel races. The occasion was voted one of Sky- land’s most delightful parties for the 1930 season. Among those who took part in_the | ride_were Mr. Myron Glasser, Mr. Tom Griffin, Mr. Harold Anderson. Miss Mary F.
