On the third day out as the sun was
declining in the, wes,t;•faithirfa "Henri
etta" sniffed the dust' and the din of
tleorglas eapittai city, Atlanta.
It was hcre during the devastating
Civil War that saueh sanguinary ceost-
. Met took:place between the forces of
the North and those of the South. The
novel "Gone With the Wind," which
has been% converted into a "movie,"
very_ vividly pertrays this 'city. The
scars of those tragic days are gone;
the artistry ef luau plus the healing
touch of nature have given the land-
scape a -silvery beauty' ,which im-
mediately arrests the eye of the visitor.
Atlanta, geographically and commerc-
ially, provides the confluence of traffic
front the east and west and because of
its elevation it is less enervating than
other towns and cities in the same
latitude. One could go on and ors
describing • Oils city -in terms or its
industry, its academic, its social life.
Suffice it to say that Atlanta, Geergia,•
having emerged from it's ashes of 1864
Is one of the finest vides encOuntered
during the trip. - • • •
There are a number of institutions
Set apart • for the specific training of
colored youth. They s4nclude literary
and -seientific _schools, a school of
theology, schools for. industrial train-.
in and training- schools for nurses.
The Presbyterian Chun*, South, owns
and operates an academy here which,
in terms of spaciousness and beauty,
is a joy to behold. The fathers of
Presbyterianism here "bnilded better
thatl they knew."
By this time, however, we were
getting a wee bit excited, forthe- ad-
joining State to the south, Florida,
was not so far away. -A suburb .of
Atlanta,- the relatively 'small town of
Hopeville, found us seeking the final
meal of the day. Rich and poor,

Here, as we were enjoying the even

for some 'time in Florida undertook
to give us guidance by way of visiting
places of interest. .This advice we

"Bok Tower" must be included in
our itinerary; as also "Sillier Springs."
If everything else be passed up in-
clude, at all .costs, a visit to the latter.
This we promised to do and proffering
our thanks we pressed on still farther
south seeking 'lodgings for the night.
Since returning many have asked the

weremade ahead of the trip, since one

ing so far. Since the scribe is a
preacher he does, periodically, en-
deavor to practise what he preacbes;
.hence the element of faith is not un-
important even in the formulating of
plans for an odyssey of this . nature.
Never once did we sleep under the
canopy .of the stars. Of course, we
didn't always "bed down" in the first
cabins available. The closer proximity
of the cabins- to the cities and towns

Here "Henrietta" clamored for a:

when two burly colored mechanics took
her in hand. A strange thing about
the hoist; it also functioned as an

ing the evening meal tea was asked for,
whereupon the waitress brought "iced"

of English extraction -"iced" tea. Down
here they interpret "tea" as "iced"

quite accommodating, bringing forth
the aristocratic tea bag suspended from
the inner side of the cup and immersed
in lukewarm water. They are ex-
