.N URING the endless hours of the
 good old summertime, reading ad- N vertisements of the summer ho- tels is rather a diverting occupation for the vast army of stay-at-homes.
 You can almost imagine yourself to be up in an aeroplane, looking down upon mountain peaks, valleys, hills, dales and seacoasts dotted with towns and small villages in which there are all sorts of inns and taverns, each one making a different claim upon the attention of the guests desired.
 Imagination is a very wonderful gift; if you don't believe it, just try an inn aginary summer trip, and you'll probably say after the day-dream that the an- ticipation of such an imaginary trip is more satisfactory than an actual expe- rience.
 Things are seldom what they seem" sang little Buttercup; at any rate the variety of attractions offered would make a real decision a difficult task.
 One of the very original ads that l read the other day about a summer hotel was that which said: "For particular people,; now, if you happen to be of this variety, the hotel boldly states that it's for you; every known commodity is in cluded in it's list of attractions, beautiful scenery, boating, bathing, fishing, mo- toring, walking-what more could any particular person" desire, unless it were fewer things?
 Another seaside hotel lad" announced that it catered to middle aged" people; those who object to children and their playful spirits, but who wish to sit quietly and mediate upon the sea or speculate as to what they'd have Tor dn- ner; the lad" went on to say that the table was excellent. the water pure, the beds good, hardwood floors, open plumb ing, but mo gaiety."

 ''HOUSEWIFELY"
 You are right in saying that we all weary at times of our own family fare however luxurious it may be. Hambur- ger steak is a palatable and an econom- ical dish, if properly cooked and served Economical inasmuch as we pay for no bones, fat, or gristle in buying it. Every scrap may be eaten up and contentedly We mix meat. etc., as described above Then it is packed in a we'll greased mold With funnel in the middle and set in a dripping pan containing enough hot water to come halfway to the top of the mold. A tin plate or cover of some kind is laid over the mold and the steak is cooked about half an hour to the pound. Turn 1t out upon a hot platter and lay upon it slices of banana fried to a light brown. The slices are arranged perpen- dicularly about an inch apart pointing toward the top of the molded meat A slice is served with each portion of the steak. You will find this a delightful ac- compartment to the steak But the to- mato sauce advised by our correspondent is also good

Something About Magnitude of Power Plant Which Is Supplying Many Cities With
 Electricity
By FRANK V. EVANS.

Tallulah Falls, Ga, August 1S.-Perhaps nowhere in all this southland is there op- portunity for generating electricity by the potentiality of falling water as here iii this southern Appalachian- Piedmont region. This is chain of mountains ex- tending southwest through the Virginias, Carolinas, Georgia and Tennessee from 2000 to coco feet above sea level. These fl ost-covered mountains offer first ob struction to the moisture-laden winds, waited westward from the Atlantic ocean. Hence, the rainfall is liberal, the st1 cams flow, considering they steep slopes, well maintain and produce favor able sites for hydroelectric installation.
 So here at Tallulah Falls, in 1911, the Georgia Railway and Power company entered upon the construction of a hy droelectric plant which has cost $2,500, GOO. Today the Piedmont region is grid-ironed by transmission lines with poles or tow CTS IS frequent reminders of general dis tribution of electric energy to cities, towns and villages whose existence is dependent upon hundreds of cotton mills, well lighted and some electrically oper- ated
 This plant is inter-connected with oth- CTS, thus permitting of delivery of its
 
 station, while the extreme limit of con- nected systems approximates 500 miles. Atlanta and Rome are at present the principal cities afforded light and power by this plant.
 Tallulah river has it's source in the mountains of northwest Georgia. Rising at an altitude of 5000 feet the river winds about mountains in general southeastern course for 40 miles and joining the Cha tooga forms the Tugaloo river at an ele- vation of about 750 feet. The Tugaloo river defines DOT tion of the boundary line between South Carolina and Georgia, ultimately reaching the Atlantic ocean through the Savannah river. The Tal- lulah river three miles above it's con- fluence with the Tugaloo, flows through gorge or canyon known as "Tallulah Falls" and in the distance of 11s miles drops 800 feet by seven successive falls, aggregating 300 feet with intervening rapids, the sides of the gorge being so steep that it is only possible to reach the streams bed at few points by diffi-
