The excursion on Thursday of last week
to Tsllulah Falls was in every sense q
grand success. Mr.. Luther P Smith is to
be congratulated Oh the way in which he
managed it. There were more than three
hundred who took advantage of this very
cheap rate to see the gram lest sight to be
seen in the South. 1t Is so utterly impos-
sible to describe the grandeur of nature
around this place, that we will not under
take it, bat we would like to say that ii
YOU have never visited Tallulah Falls go
and see them the first good chance, and
we venture the assertion that you WILL
wonder why you haye lived so long so
near such grand and beautiful scenery
without visiting 1t sooner. It Is not sim
ply water running over rocks but the
scenery surrounds the falls, as we'll as the
road for some miles before you get there
And then there are several falls, any one
of which is much prettier than the fall at
Toccoa, which is grand, but Tallulah is
both beautiful and grand. They show
the hand Of God, and one cannot visit this
place without being impressed by the
sights to be- seen and having higher ideas
OF life. The citizens OF Tallulah said that
nicer, better behaved crowd never vis-
tied the falls. There was in fact not
single thing in the way of disorder on the
whole trip and the ladies felt safe. It IL
said another excursion will be run ab'ut
the middle of August, and all who can
should 60.
