COLUMBUS, GEORGIA OLUMBUS, GIQORGLX, like lfort Benning, should be of interest to the ollicers of the Llnited States Army as thousands of the com- missioned otlicers will visit both places as The Infantry School grows older. Columbus, located at the head of navigation on the Chattahoochee river, is 360 miles from the Gulf of blexico and is separated by the stream from Alabama, the city being the metropolis of XVestern Georgia. Steamers on the river carry the sportsman to the Great Deadlakes Region, noted for its hunting and fishing possibilities. The city is famed for its wide and beautiful streets, laid out loo years ago by state engineers who made the avenues and streets from 99 to 164 feet in width, allowing for beautiful parkways. Of special interest to the army oliicers are the schools, churches, highways and living accomodations. The Columbus public schools rank with those at the top. Two high schools are a part of the system. There is also Lorena Hall, a private school for girls, Chase Conservatory of hlusic and a parochial school. Churches of practically every denomina- tion are to be found in Columbus and these are conveniently located. One of the most beautiful squares of Columbus is the Church Square, also made possible by the foresight of the men laying the city out Ioo years ago. Beautiful drives, with an all year climate allowing automobile drives at any time, together with many points of interest in and near Columbus, offer an opportunity for many interesting trips. The Andersonville cem- etery is only 5o miles away. Six good hotels and a number of tea rooms, cafes and cafeterias offer Southern cooking and provide Columbus with the best eating places to be found in the South. A street car system, one line making the famous Wyiinton loop, and taxicabs make transportation easy. Fort Benning is reached by train or a bus line operating on regular hourly schedule. Amusements suiting those of any age are to be found in Columbus. Numerous moving picture theatres and an opera house Where the lead- ing productions are presented, are facilities for entertainment. A Country Club located on a hill-top with beautiful golf links is just beyond the sub- urbs of Columbus. Athletics find a place at the Driving Park Where many of The Infantry School athletic contests are staged. The park is the home of the annual Georgia-Auburn football classic when thousands of people visit Columbus.
