One of the finest views of Rome

I had from Fort Jackson, where th®
magnificent reeivoir for our new
water works is situated.
One evening recently Alf Har
p< r and myself went out for a lit
t jtuat, end directed our foot
steps there. The fine woods all
up ihe slopes of Fort Jackson are
h« prettiest I ever saw. Th® pines
are of almost uniform size with no
undergrowth at all, and the ground
has a soft yielding carpet of pine
needles. But the crewning glory
I eomes when yo» Maud with bared
head upon the summit. Mountains
rise tier on tier cn al! sides, until
they are lost in a faint blue line
in the distance. The Oostanaula
winas its sinuous course, like a
ribbon of silver thr< ugh rich
meadow?, and as you trv to trace
it back, you finally lose it in tl •
mountains far to the North.
Rome with its church spires,
handsome stores and elegant resi
dences, lies at our feet. The new
court bouse is strongly outlined
in the clear air, and all its grace
ful, yet substantial proportions are
brought into sharp relief,
I turn, with reluctance, at last
to descend and find Alf composing
