UNION RECORDER, MILLEDGEVILLE, GA., AUGUST 22, IS 9 'S' MRS. W. A. COOK WRITES OF TRIP TO CHICAGO Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 2, 1929. My Dear Home-folk*: Yesterday A. M. when the clock at Siloam struck four we arose from our bed* for Willie K. had said we must leave at five. Willie and Dorothy went for Fannie, who came immediately and made coffee and baked fresh biscuit for breakou t and for our lunch. When we went, out to pick our car (some of the baggage <>n the outside nnd some in- rfde) the moon land (three bright stars hung majestically in a clear sky and the day promised to be n fine ore. for which we thanked God and offered a prayer that He would ro with us all the way. Wish you could have seen us when we were seated in the car, indeed we had the appearance oT having all our possess ion* with us. At 5:30 wo started on our journey reaching Atlanta before ten o’clock. After seeing Winston n few minutes we traveled in a Ncrth-westcrn. di rection intending to keep the route that had been mapped out for i thru Cedartown, but we missed o way at Rockmart and went 3 1 miles out of the way. While we we lost we stopped under the shade < a tree and ate dinner which wc e joyed. Returning to Rocfcmarfc v went directly North to Rome. The scenery thru this section is beautiful beyend description. At 5:30 we crossed the line into Tenn., at Ross- ville a neat little village nestling among the mountains with Lookout Mountain looming up in front of us It is wonderful. I will have to tel you how I was thrilled while wind ing round the mountain* with the river so near. It was frightful nnd J yet inspiring. It is six miles to the top of one of the mountains we climbed and five miles down Another mountain is four miles to the top and perfectly level with paved roads fat 2 miles across and when we be gan to descend we found the road- something like this (zig «»R). nrith deep gorges to our right, you may be sure we hugged the mountain side to our left. At <1:25 we reached the beautiful city of Chattanooga. The sun was fast sinking and Nashville wn- 142 j miles away. Willie R. said, “what shall we do? This is a mountainous country and we do not know the road.” I said, we will go into Nash- vi!U.” Fortunately there was a car in f.*«nt of us evidently bound for the same place. We lost sight of that car after miles of travel, but] wc were so near our destination we were encouraged to go on. Wc reach-, cd the city at 11:30. Berta was not looking for us un-j til today, but received us gladly. Af-j ter investigation we learned thnt wej had traveled 409 mile.-, we expect to. spend tomorrow night in Louisville. | Will write you—Love to nil MAMA. I Louisville. Ken., Aug. 4. 1929.

We left Nashville at f.:30 Saturday with Mamouth Cave a. our chief objee- jive. It is eleven miles off the main road, but we did not hesitate to Bo.

There is m word to deecribe this cave, but th« word Mamouth We came out of th< cave at 1:30. had dinner and re • umed our journey to Louisville 85 miles futher. All thru from Nashville the co try is beautiful. The mountains far enough away to make the scenery more enjoyable. We felt no fear of having another one to climb. Tc- bacco and corn are to be seen all the way thru Kentucky and we saw more cattle, hogs, cows, sheep, goats and hordes than we saw in the valleys of Tennessee. We arrived here about 6:30 last evening. Our friends were ready to receive us and gave a welcome that we appreciated.

That is the way it should be. This is th<- greatest nation in the world for “going places,” and may such To travel is to live. To sit sloth like in one place is to see nothing be nothing, feel nothing and next thing to knowing othing. Travel is education—the most pleasant form of education known to man, for it “peoples the heart and mind with pictures that never fade.” Travel gives a character of experience to our knowledge, nnd brings the fig ures upon the tablet of memory into strong relief.
