summer afternoon.
She quickly took her small Bird
Guide from her ever-present bag and
rapidly turned the leaves. At last she

When it was repeated an expression of
doubt fitted across her features, but
still she was hopeful.

When approaching Tibet from the

In winter the press does no work

we were disappointed in our hopes of
witnessing the manner in which sacred
literature is manufactured in Tibet

shelves the printing blocks, which are
simply rectangular pieces of wood upon
which whole page of lettering has
been carved. When in action block is
held in wise and then levered by hand
upon the paper, where it leaves a fac
smile of the carving on it's face.
The process is simple and expeditions
and several fat volumes can be printed
off in a day. But the blocks, of which
there are very many thousands, repre-
sent long and patient labor, their work
