STONE EAGLE A WORK OF ART
Remarkable Stone Figure Of Bird
Legacy Left to State Of Georgia
by Indians.

On the broad top of stony, rain
quilted hill in middle Georgia there
lies very large eagle, concerning
which conflicting stories are tod.
The one point that seems to be GER
tain is that the Indians left the eagle
as a legacy to the state. A hundred
years from now it will probably be
found lying on It's back, with out
spread wings and tall even as it lies
today. For it is made Of quartz rocks
so cunningly placed that it would re-
quire pick in a strong mans hands
to displace any one OF them. The
rocks lap and overlap in such man
ner az to represent feathers. No ce-
ment holds them in position, and the
stones vary in size. weighing from
half pound to three or four pounds.
The image rests on very firm foun-
daticn, for the stonework extends sew
eral feet into the ground.
Once, perhaps twice, treasure-seek-
ing vandals dug into the breast Of the
eagle; but the work must have proved
too laborious, for the diggers gave up
before they had reached the bottom
layer of overlapping stones.
Rough but fairly accurate measure
ments of the bird show the length OF
the eagle from the middle Of the tail
TO the head to be one hundred and two
feet, and from tip to tip Of outspread
wings, one hundred and twenty feet.
The length OF the beak is ten feet,
and the height Of the body at the CEN
ter of the breast is ten feet. The
eagle lies with its head to the west.

The hunting spirit has not been slow
to take its cue from the successful use
Of the aeroplane in war. If the scout
can make his way unchecked above the
lines Of the enemy and search them
out as he viii; if he can drop bombs
or shoot with definite effect on the
enemy below, then surely the hunter,
being able to fly low with no risk to
himself. could follow his game from
the air and get it at will.
This has been done with success.
The Literary Digest tells Of hunting
coyotes over the western plains by
aircraft. quoting from Flying the de.
tails of how II IS done. The animals
aIe taken unawares. On the air side,
the only side from which they have
never had reason 10 expect attack,
their instinct has left them unguarded.
This will be remedied in time, but
what good will ii do them? The aero
plane can fly faster than the animal
can run. II probably will be adapted
to the hunting Of many forms Of big
game the world oveH giving the hunter
the advantage of protection from the
recon Of such animals as tigers, lions
and elephants which he never could
have before.

"Wait a minute, Jackl Look at this

young mans voice.
The next morning. during the shop

in it:
"You brought me luck last night,
