ing the windings of the Little Chiwas-
see, the bold forehead of Bull noun
tain overlapping the town. These were
the frame for the picture which human
activity was etching into the level area
Enclosed by the two streams. Long
vistas of streets marked by burrows
turned at the curb lines; open spaces
dotted with the stakes of the surveyor
and heaped with piles of brick and lum-
Der; u~ncoun.ed numbers of half-fin-
ished buildings upon which the work
men clustered like swarming bees; the
muffled drumming of hosting engines;
the strident exhausts of the locomo-
tives in the railway yard; the clang of
hammers in a boiler shop-everywhere
the sights and sounds of restless in
dustry and impatient progress.
Under such circumstances the gre
garious impulse asserts itself irresisti-
bly,. Thorndyke looked about him for
a possible sympathizer, and, by a proc
ess of natural selection which is as un-
accountable as it is inerrant, he pitched
upon a young man sitting apart from
tie various groups Oh the veranda.
Drawing up a chair, he began to un-
burden himself.
1T beats anything 1 even heard Of"
he said. What is there behind IL
all?'
Standing as a target for the gunnery
of other peoples surprise was no new
experience for the man of Philips selec-
tion. and he smiled good-naturedly. "A
good many people have asked that ques-
ton. Ican't answer it to my own salts
faction, but others would say the coal
and iron; the lack of important manu-
featuring ceDters in the sonth, and the
consequent pressing need for one just
here; the climate, and a hundred other
things besides"
"Are the coal and iron realities?'
"Oh, yes, very much so; this noun
tain behind the hotel is a vast coal bed,
and that one over there"-pointing to
the cliffs across the Little Chiwassee-
lis equally rich in iron of fair quality"
Then the people are not merely crazy
enthusiasts. after ALL"
That's as you please to look at it.
So far AS natural resources go, the place
is solid. There is any quantity of build
ing material, marble, sand and lime
stone, fire clay, timber, coal and iron.
1t a city may be built upon the mere
presence of raw material, Allacoochee
is a fact accomplished"
''That implies a doubt; may | ask the
~reason?"
Certainly. though I'm not at all sure
/ can make it plain. All the advantages
have named and a dozen more are here,
to be sure, but they've always been here,
and it remained for our friends the pro-
meters to find ont that they would war
rant all this" including the visible part
of Allacoochee by a comprehensive GEES
ture. "More than that, the same adj
yantages may oe found in plenty Of 10
c~alities in the south, some of them
much more accessible than this valley
And then / have an old-fashioned idea
that cities can't be created arbitrarily
They smoked in silence for a little
while, and then Thorndyke tool a caro-
from his case and handed it TO his com
p%anion.
LET me introduce myself" he said
II Just got in last night, and you may
! be able to tell me what | want to know
