OFFICE UP STAIRS IN THE WILCOXON BLDG Millions of people are wondering what railroad schedules are for. Joe Brown, railroad expert of the Georgia Railroad Commission, can probably unravel the mystery if he is willing to do it. The Atlanta Journal is deter- mined to have the Western and Atlantic Railroad extended to the >ca. The Journal proposes to fight this proposition to a finish if it takes years to do it. Peary, the Arctic explorer, reached a point within two hun dred miles of the North Pole and isfeoming back to tell the story of his explorations, in spite of the many critics who said he couldn't do it.

One of the most beautiful places in Georgia is that of the Lee fami ly in Catoosa county, near the Tennessee line, now occupied by Congressman Gordon Lee, of the seventh district. It is old-fashion ed; the very type of that colonial architecture now so much prized and imitated. It breathes the spirit of the times before the war and the generous hospitality dis pensed by its dignified owner and charming chatelaine recalls the brilliant social life in the South before the bugle calls of Sherman’s hosts made a wreck of much that was fair and lovely in the country. The cordial hospitality of the home has been noted for many years and under the reign of the present mistress, this reputation bids fair to be increased. Mrs. Gordon Lee was before her mar riage Miss Olive Berry, of New nan, one of the wealthiest heir esses ol the state. She entertains with tact and charm and each week of the summer season the Lee home is filled with gay house parties. In the winter it is in charge of a care-taker, as Con gressman and .Mrs. Lee are neces sarily : n Washington. Upon the occasion of Mr. Lee’s recent re spring, the largest as well as the most beautiful spring in North Georgia, with a reputed How of 1,000,000 gallons an hour. This magnificent spring is in a natural basin and from it flows a stream, which dammed up new, forms the fishing lake of the Chickamauga Club. This is splendidly stocked and with its lodge and hunting preserves is a favorite resort for the fishermen of Chattanooga and North Georgia. The Lee mansion faces the spring. The wide government boulevard runs through this wood ed bit and the old house forms one of the prettiest pictures on the road. Historically the estate is famed. The house itself was the head quarters of Major General Kose- crans before the battle of Chicka mauga and around it now are numerous government tablets and state markers showing the position of the troops during and before the battle. Not far away is the Lee and Gordon mill, a contested point of the fight, and a well known flour mill long before the war. It is one of the largest in dustries of the State and is still owned by the Lee and Gordon estate; in fact little of the original property has been sold. The name of the postoffice has been changed from Crawfish Springs to Chickamauga and the boulevard runs directly to the na tional park, with its thousands of 1 memorials and miles of superb j roads.

Cor- large gathering, the banquet is spread in the dining hall of the Bark hotel, which is within a few hundred yards of the house, and the entire lower floor is put at the disposition of the happy guests. The house, with its white col umns, ample verandas and clinging vines, is set far back from the road, now a government boulevard. A quaint, old-fashioned picket fence surrounds the grounds and the tall pickets meet in a gateway ! that is itself a picture of the long ago. The graceful structure is | built in an arched design. Within a vista may be obtained of the house through the long ave nue of stately trees. The deep shade falls on a sward as green as is the far famed blue grass of Ken tucky. Dwarf shrubs are found bordering the graveled walk and sweet old-fashioned flowers are found in the numerous beds. This wealth of blossoms is repeated when one draws near the house, where multitudes of carnations and nasturtiums bloom and roses lift their dewy heads.
