Abstract

Promise in the South
Stevenson, Elizabeth | November 29, 1952 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents the landscape beauty of the North Georgia and the development of the Southern part. North Georgia has a careless beauty in the Fall season. There are stubble fields, the broom sage and the red earth. The oaks, the hickories, the maples and the sweet gums burned somberly in the lower valleys. Down South, the land has changed. The very look of it is the look of a hopeful South and the change in the South is urban as well as rural. It belongs to the small bright towns as well as to the cities. Twenty years ago the cities and towns were as drab, as dingy, and as hopeless as the farms. Today the ferment of a new promise operates in city streets and country roads at an almost equal pitch.
