Moliere and you find that obliging gentleman at aa excursion is doubly pleasant in these when all through the woodland Nature has spread her of scarlet and gold and green aud spangled with shifting sunlight and fluttering and where the streams flow has added shimmering to her grand color Great boles here pierce the last layer of granite through to the gravel These are the and in the side walls the whirlpools have worn deep mimic caverns that hold a portion of night's darkness through the The are the bathing pools for the small boys of the The cool water and enticing shade defy the fiercest summer The gorge itself is a study in light and full of sharply contrasting tempered with browns and and crowned with living with glimpses of blue sky and fleecy clouds between the waving branches

from through the surrounding country will give variety in scenery than could be imagined by one unacquainted with the The of Fall Creek and their environments are well worth a day's the bony frame work of Mother Earth crops out in a plate of granite that is anchored far back under the and through the center of it Fall Creek has during the ages a deep path in the living rises on each side the

past a little stream must have crept out from under a ledge of gradually eroding the stone and washing away the earth till the ledge began to little by until at with wind and weather it had carved out a echoing where the winds sing their low monotone and the lighter strains are given by a choir of the pulpit at the farther under a curved canopy of living high-arched and solemn and a lecturn of
