(5a., Feb. 28.â1 f the plans of Gutzou Borglum, well known sculp tor, do not go awry, giant sized figures of Gen. Robert K. Lee,-Jefferson Davis and Gen. Stonewall Jackson, heroes of the Southern Confederacy, soon will be outlined on the blank face of Stone j Mountain, near Atlanta, as an ever-: lasting memorial of the Lost Cause. Work of installing a huge project- j ing lamp, something new in the world; of science, atjthe foot of the mountain now is being completed and when the Georgia Railway & Power company ex tends its power lines from the end of tin* street car line to the mountain, Mr. Borglum intends to come, to At lanta and attempt to fasten, the like nesses of tin* Confederate leaders on tin* side of the. great mass of granite. That of Lee alone is intended - to be â˘about 88 feet high, while the head of the. horse he will be shown riding will he about 300 feet in height. These di mensions of the central figure of the proposed pietm-e given an. idea b⏠the immensity of tne sculpture which will extend, when completed, across 700 feet yi)f the face of the (maintain. In the. event that the great machine fails lo print a picture on the stone wall, justVas a picture is printed on paper in the dark room of a photog rapherâs studio. Mr. Borglum intends! to use his lamp to âthrowâ the pic tures on the. mountain side as a pic ture is thrown on. the. screen in a mo tion picture theater. Then he will have himself lowered from the top of the mountain in a swinging seat, and j working in that dangerous position, will spend an hour or two e/ieh ightj until lie lias succeeded in outlining with white paint the figures in the memorial. That the work of carving the gi gantic picture will he a dangerous one. is acknowledged by experts who have contemplated the task. The steep side of Stone. Mountain height with no foothold from top, to bottom. The only way the work can he accomplished is by lowering the workmen from the top of the tiiiT. Af ter the figures are sketched in the men who do the actual carving will .he lowered in steel cages to carry on their Labors. The projecting lamp was built nor Mr. Borglum in New York at a cost of .$2,500 and weighs 910 pounds, it is supplied with a 150-ampbere arc and this with a set of condensers gives it the power to project a picture farther than any other lamp ever built, it is claimed. / Discussing his plan to photograph the picture on the mountain Mr. Bor glum said: âFirst, by several nightâs work I will determine the eyxact location for Gen. Lee.'s figure. I will make Ihis spot on the mountain sensitive to light by pouring ..sensitizing chemicals over it, then working byÂťuigÂŁt,Lfor-the night itjself-will he my dark room, I will let the, rays of the lamp shine against the-mountain for several hours. Af ter tlmt I will pour developing fluid,, then fixing fluid over that parr where the light has been shining. After this is/ done I w ill wash aw ay the chejni cals. By morning I will have myopic- PAGE FIVE v ture. ready for my workmen to begin carving. 1 will proceed in this way with the other figures until finally I will have the biggest photograph ever made, printed on the granite face of the. memorial.â Plans are being made for a great memorial meetinlg at Stone Mountain in the near future, when surviving leaders of the Confederacy and the Union armies, President Harding and other government heads, and leaders of patriotic organizations throughout the country wj.ll be invited to visit the. mountain anil view the scene of the projected memorial'. 'Work on the Stone Mountain memo-* rial was first begun in Ibid and since, that time has been largely financed by Mr. Borgluin. personally and Sam li. Venable, representing the Venable e.state, which owns flic mountain. Mr. , Borglum was first brought to Atlanta by the Atlanta chapter, United Daugh ters of the Confederacy and since that time the Atlanta chapter lias been act ively at work on the project. Between $20,000 and $25,000 already lias been expended before the Mfc>rld War brought an end to activities. The Daughters of the. Confederacy, whose membership is said to approximate 300,000 have again taken up flic, work of sponsoring the material, ac cording to Mrs. T. T. Stevens, of At lanta, vice president of the- Confed erate Association. As a means to this end The Daughters of the Confederacy are considering Using a plot of ground at the foot of the mountain deeded to them Atr. Mr. Venable, as an outdoor auditorium.
