Want National Park For North Georgia Washington, November 15. — Representative Gordon Lee, of thp seventh district of Georgia, is preparing and will introduce in Congress this week a bill set ting aside the government’s forest reservation in North Georgia as a national park, with all of the reereation, hunting and fishing priveliges and govern ment road and other develop ments that go with such a federal recognition. Congressman Lee, who is the poly sout.hen? member of the Rational forestry commission, of which Secretary of War Weeks is chairman, is preparing this measure in conduction with government forestry officials, and a vigorous campaign will be waged at once to pass the bill. The government now owns more than 100,000 acres of the most heautiful mountain lands in North Georgia, in the seventh and ninth districts, in which are spots of scenery and unique mountain attractions equal to those of the famous national parkte of the inter-mountain states along the Pacific slope- Among these i»v the second highest water fall in America, a small area of the second highest rainfall in America, some of the most beautiful mountain streams including hilltop lakes ant} picturesque canyons and far- reaching green valleys. Under the. recently enacted federal road bill $15,000.000 is set aside for the new year for surfaced roads ir. goyenaent forest reservations. In addition, the forest reservation bill sets aside 35 per cent of the gros.- receipts from the sale of all timber for road purposes, and ? recent amendment makes it possible" for the government, through the forestry commission, to lease at a nominal lerdal of $10 a year, certain rites in these reservations for recreational purposes, under stipulated re strictions and to applicants who can qualify under the law. If the federal reservation in Georgia should be declared a national park by congress then the department of forestry co ordinating with the secretary of war, would prepare a program for government development in keeping with the legitimaterecre ational demands made. The Lee bill will stipulate that the secretary of war shall proceed. —Atlanta Constitution. ^e'th^Trjbupe, A Drunk- There is on exhibition at the store of Mr. J. T.

There is also outlined upon the shell a picture of a dice, and many see in this combination a a solemn warning to all that even a little wine for the stomach’s sake” is not good. Mr. Lord states that the egg was found Sunday by a neighbor while removing eggs from a nest in his barnyard, and that its pe culiar coloring attracted his at tention and caused him to make the remarlytble fihd. More tj\an 400 people are estimated to haye called at the store Tuesday to see the freak. The Athens Banner.

He changed his capy—as one garment after an other was friyt d out and in the end got what he wanted. ‘‘But had he taken down that signal after a time and declared advertising doesn’t pay’ where would Crusoe and his story be today?” Borne one was showing a cabbage snake on the streets the other day and some think they areposion but if you will read the following letter from W.
