Ja il -N ! o 5 1 i l' ' lin. gif-ffl I 5 1924 nouansov There are numerous points of interest in and near Columbus. The beautiful ante-bellum home, St. Elmo, where Augusta Evans Wilson, a Columbus woman, secured the scenes for the novel bearing that title yet stands and is one of Columbus' most beautiful suburban homes. The last battle of the Civil war was fought one week after General Lee's surrender at the Georgia side of the Fourteenth Street bridge and is now surrounded by mammoth cotton mills and the South's largest fixture plant. There is Oglethrope tablet, placed at the foot of Broad Street near the point General Oglethrope crossed the Chattahoochee river after conferring with the Creeks, the Indians having possession of the country in those days. Going down the shaded wide street to the tablet, the Confederate monument is seen in the center of the parkway. After seeing the points of interest in Columbus one may take the Chat- tahoochee river trip for it is at Columbus that navigation meets the power from the falls of the river. This delightful trip to Apalachicola, 360 miles away via water, carries one to the famous Dead Lake region where fishing and hunting as you have dreamed of for years are to be found. Comfortable river steamers make regular schedules through this picturesque country, passing through 10 varieties of scenery. The river transportation is a great asset to Columbus, a city having seven railroad lines extending in all directions. Good roads help you get to Columbus quickly and several highways pass through western Georgia's metropolis. Railroads and the river steamers carry much freight, Columbus goods being sent to all parts Qf the world for Columbus is one of the nations great cotton manufacturing cities, one cotton mill having 34 acres of space under one roof. There are 100 plants making 200 different articles and the industrial expansion necessitates the building of a 35,000,000 project some miles up the river and above Goat Rock Dam, now the fartherest-south great water- power development in the United States. The Goat Rock development is visited annually by hundreds of army people. While seeing all these interesting places and studying the city that is differentf' due to the great variety of interests, one must eat and sleep and six hotels await your arrival. Many tea rooms, cafes and dining rooms of the hotels, the majority serving Southern dishes prepared by the South's greatest chefs, the Southern mammy, will offer you some agreeable surprises in good things to eat. gh? 1, i 'i -if 5 W Y .
