raid its taxes. 1t is operated by the
Rapid Transit Company Of Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, and runs from that city
to Chickamauga Park. in Walker coun-
ty, Georgia. The road runs in Georgia
for a distance of about seven miles and,
OF course, considerable of its rolling

ers all over the state were sent out
