THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
INDIAN SPRINGS
Superintendent Mitchell Metcalf
and his eight aides, together with
enough men to man the trucks, is all
that remains of the CCC camp that
has been operating here for more
than two years, and orders have been
received for these to quit their posts
the first of May. Most of the crew
fermen have -htn offered transfers
to other camps, while Superintend
ent Metcalf has been ordered to one
of the two Warm Springs camps.
There is a belief that a small crew
will be moved to the camp here to
complete the odds and ends of pro
jects that were not finished on ac
count of unfavorable weather this
winter and spring. The beauty and
utility of the job here becomes more
apparent as the 20,000 plantings get
into leaf and bloom, making an in
comparable setting for the rock
buildings.
The first picnic of theseason was
held in the well shaded new picnic
grounds situated on the banks of
Sandy Creek and accessible by
the new bridge. The Locust Grove
Junior High came Tuesday with more
than 300 in the party. Mr. P. M.
Minter, the superintendent, was loud
i > / i,l i . -.i
in praise of the new grounds and
ample tables and seats for the party.
This is the first time in the history
of the Springs have preparations
been made to accomodate as many
as 500 picickers and the first time
that the shaded dale has been open
to the public.
Mrs. Wesley Jones, of Atlanta, is
guest of Mrs. Bessie Bryans and Miss
Jennie Bryans this week. Mr.
Jones drove her down from the Gate
City Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Blanton Clement, of
Rutledge CCC camp, and Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Bentley, of Warm
Springs CCC camp, both the gentle
men formerly employed here as sup
erintendent and stone foreman, re
spectively, were visitors here Sun
day, each showing to admiring
friends their recently bom daugh
ters.
Farm and garden work in this
vicinity is very belated on account
of heavy spring rains, followed with
winds and cold. The ground is hard
as granite and badly leeched by
\ieavy rains.
Ed Cornell has announced the
opening of the Elder May first, with
a large advance of reservations and
indications of a heavy season. Dur
ing the winter and spring months the
entire hotel has been refinished and
refurnished. All rooms have been
repapered and repainted; baths in
stalled in many additional rooms;
new mattresses and springs on al
beds; sun awning built over rooms
with southern exposure, and other
wise prepared for the comfort and
pleasure of guests. ,
The Foy Hotel will he opened early
next week, the delay being eaused
by freshening up the entire house
with paint and wall paper, as well as
putting a hard wood finish on the
lobby floor. Proprietor Ed Hoard
says that reservations point to the
largest business in the history of the
hotel.
Clarence Moss. Dan Hoard, O. A.
Torbettt have remodeled their places
of business and many homes have
been remodeled and repainted, all in
anticipation of the profitable tourist
season.
Last Sunday both parking places
at the Springs were crowded to ca
pacity. The new parking space west
of the Springs, uncompleted on ac
count of the evacuation of the CCC
camp, is accessible in dry weather
and can accommodate 500 or more
Cars. A check-up of movement of
autos here Sunday showed thatthey
were moving at the rate of 430 an
hour during the afternoon hours.

Services will be held at Fellowship
Presbyterian church Sunday morning
