new BEAUTY SPOT
FOUND IN GEORGIA
Lake Niskey Resort, near Atlanta,
Completed After Two Years.
Attracts Thousands.

Atlanta, Ga.-Lake Niskey, widely
known as Atlanta's most picturesque
water resort, has been opened to the
public. improvements which have
been in process of construction for
two years have just been completed.
This resort is situated eleven miles
from the center of the city, just off
Campbellton road.
The improvements, including the
construction of 1-2 miles of road
way around the lake, landscape gard
ening and architecture have required
over two years of expert efforts, and
no pains have been spared to make
Niskey lake one of the beauty spots
of Georgia.
AS a resort, it will compare favor
ably with other resorts throughout
the country, but Niskey lake will not
become a resort in the accepted sense
las it offers year around diversion.
1t was j. M. Niskel who three years
ago, standing on a hill overlooking
the virgin wilderness conceived the
idea of converting it into a spot of
marvellous beauty. Today his dream
has become a Relation.
A marvellous piece of engineering
is the trail constructed at a cost of
thousands of dollars which winds
around the lake shore. For 1-2
miles this road, shaded by the over
tapping branches of hundreds of pine
trees, winds and dips, curves and
twists around the lakH.
Many difficulties were surmounted
in the building of the dam. A hid
den spring which took many days to
harness, was struck deep in the
ground. In the end however, this
spring proved a blessing for it pro-
vides enough pure and sparkling wa
ter to supply the entire property.
1t was necessary to cut through a
hill over 80 feet in height in order to
build the spillway which further pro-
tects the dam by letting off the sur
plus water. In the construction of
the dam and spillway corload after
carload of cement and thousands of
pounds of dynamite was used.
One of the finest granite quaries
of the state is to be found at Niskey
lake. All of the stone work on the
bridges and entry ways is construct
ed from granite quarried on the
grounds.
Nature has also provided lumber
and the little houses nesting against
the hills close to the shores of the
lake are built of genuine Georgia
pine cut and milled on the Niskey
properties.
The Niskey lake property, in all
over 800 acres, occupies one of the
highest points in the country. Cap
tain Niskey has been assisted in the
development of the property by the
Adair Realty and Trust company who
were big factors in the development
of Druid Hills, Atlanta's Millionaire
colony.

President Clay is
Making a Record
in Passing Bills

President Clay's gavel banged Is
times in ten minutes Wednesday
morning and every time it descended
bill passed out of the senate hopper
ready for the governors signature.
Veteran members said the chair had
hung up new record, they believed,
for rapid dispatch of business.
Each bill requires a certain amount
of formal language to put it through.
What the chair did to this formal YER
biage was to pick it up and hurl it in
stream. Members smiled and the
scattered gallery moved to the rail
and leaned over.
Vote-bang. Vote-bang! Vote
bang. The president didn't omit
word, but every word was crowd
ing its neighbor. Bills faded in ra-
pid order, and as the tenth minute
slipped by the chair brought his gavel
down with mighty whach and an
nounced the senate clear of local
measures.

Los Angeles, Jan. 3.-When Ros- COG C'Fatty'') Arbuckle was arrested and tried recently at San Francisco on a manslaughter charge growing out of the death of Virginia Rappe, following gay hotel party given by the round comedian, the allegation was made that the Los Angeles film colony had been the scene of many orgies far worse than Arbuckle's en- tertainment.
 From some of the most influential were hurled demands that Holly wood, that section of the city which contains most of the large motion picture studies in Southern Califor- good job of it.
 And now. with four months having elapsed since the pastors shouted their warnings to audiences of mill sections of the country, the question naturally arises: Was Hollywood really bad, and if so, has it 'fcleaned up"?
 AZ an answer the International News Service records observations rom four sources and from men who stand high in their respective fields of endeavor. In epitomized from these find :Egs are:
 1. John H. Peiletier, executive sec retary of the Morals Efficiency Asso- citation of Los Angeles: Eighty per cent. of the residents of the Holly
 
 people as can be found anywhere. some of the balance lead indifferent lives and by their loose conduct bring reproach on their righteous brother and sisters
 2 Captain George K. Home, of the Los Angeles Police Department: Practically all of the Southern Cali fornia people deriving their liveli- hood from the motion picture indus try are clean and upright citizens"
 8. Rev. Neal Dodd, rector of St. Iary's of the Angels (EpiscopaD
 hurch, located in the heart of the I'm colony: "A constant association with all sorts of movie folk has led le to believe they compare favora- ply with any profession on earth"
 4. De Witt Jennings. chairman of the Los Angeles governing board of the Actors Equity Association: Yes, there are some black sheep in the movies But the number is very small, considering that from 100000 to 300000 Southern California people are said to depend in some way, in
 hole or in part, on the motion pie ture industry for their Livelihood"
 MT. Pelletier, who. before he be- came identified with the Morals Eff fciency Association, an organization by prominent public-spir- tied cit.zens of Los Angeles. was su-

pervisor of the United States Hygiene Board, has made an ex- l haustive study of the Hollywood so- cia1 conditions.
 Some time ago. said Pelletier in an interview, 'T discovered that there was pronounced traffic in drugs in the Hollywood colony. I learned that there was 9 trafficker who visited Los Angeles every two months. through Los Angeles Harbor, and who brought large quantities of hero in and cocaine, much of which was destined to be sold in the movie col ony. I broke up this ring by obtain ing 112 bottles of cocaine and hero n from this man. myself, to be used as evidence.
 "I also discovered that liquor des- tined for the Hollywood colony was being snnuggled into Southern Cali fornia through the activities of two lesser officers of the United States Navy. As in the case of the drug ties, put an end to the rum running by the naval officers.
 'Information has come to my of fee of org es held in the Hollywood nately, the tips on these affairs were invariably too late for raids. I have been told that at some of these affairs, where drug addicts have gether with heroin and cocaine, have been passed about on trays. It was io 4'-o anne manner as n the pre- prohibition period, when W nes l4quoIs Or beer were passed about.
 'aThe public believes that the ma jority of the movie people are every thing that Is bad, whereas the fact is that less than 20 per cent. 0f tfe film colony are involved in immorahties, and it that less than 20 per cent. that have given the entire industry this bad reputation"
 Captain George K. Home, of the Hollywood police district. does not agree with MT. PelIetier's figures in regard to the "substant.aP' and in different people of the film colony.
 .'My district is one of the qu etest and most decorous in the entire na- tion" said Captain Home.
 with but one or two exceptions. my men have never had a call from the homes of any of the more prom inent men and women on the screen. These call were only such as might come from the homes of honest workingmen in a manufacturing dis trict.
 Taken as a whole. the people in the Hollywood film world are up- right, law-abiding residents. They own mile after mile of the best homes. They have bank accounts. They have Al credit. Hollywood is a section of Nell-conduc ucted households, wel-patronized churches and model schools"

While the case is pending Miss Pugsley remains ou of school. She states today, however, that she is making arrangements to either enter school at Corning. neighboring town. or at Poplar Bluff, Mo.
 She stated that on the day of her disn ssa1 from school she had a very moderate amount of powder on her face.
 "I had always been taught by my mother to use powder on my face '' she sad. 'I had used it all my life. and if I were dressed up and no pow complete as if I were dressed up and had no shoes.
 'fThe day I was dismissed from school MT. Hicks called for all girls in the room who had artificial com plexions' to come up to the front and sit on the recitation bench. I went up front with two other girls, and, after reading the rule over to us, he sad we would either have to leave school or go out and wash the powder and I had nothing but ordinary ta1cum powder on, and he informed me that made no difference.
 Miss Pugsley is a very reserved two inches in height and weight about 120 pounds. She is pretty, even when the face powder is lack ing. She does not wear extreme clothing nor does she paint
 'I would not permit her to paint her face under any conditions" her mother declared. "I have used pow der on all three of my children even my son, from infancy. I feel that It is my duty to see that the health and complexion of my children are preserved. The Irish blood in my veins has been boiling ever since Pearl was dismissed from school
 Miss Pugsley summed up her credc as follows:
 "I am a Methodist, love music and believe in powder"
