THE GAME OF DRAUGHTS.
So Old That Its Origin Is Lost In the
Mists of Antiquity.

So Old That Its Origin Is Lost In the
Mists of Antiquity.
Draughts in some shape or form is
doubtless a very ancient pastime In
deed, the safest thing to say about it is
that its origin is lost in the mists of an
tiquity. Representations of persons
playing at game resembling draughts
are frequently found on ancient Egyp-
tian monuments at least 5000 years
Old The Greeks had similar gene,
from whom possibly it passed to the
Romans. At least the old Roman game
Of latrunculi seems to have been kind
of draughts, though it is doubtful if the
game as now played is very ancient.
The game was popular and we'll known
in France and Spain in the seventeenth
century and was probably played there
and in England centuries before that.
That it was from France the game
came into many Of the other countries
Is evident from the fact that the French
name-jeu de dames-passed with it.
Dam or damme was once the regular
English name for one Of the pieces In
Germany the game is still called dame.
spiel, in Holland the board is dambord,
and in Scotland dambrod still survives
In the United States the less usual
name of chequers, spelled checkers, Is
employed, Polish, Spanish, Italian and
Turkish draughts are varieties of the
same game. The Polish game, which
has several peculiarities, was intro
duced in Paris in 1923 and was at first

A WILDERNESS OF TREES.
Inaccessible Forests That Abound In
GuatemaIa.

Inaccessible Forests That Abound In
Guatemala.
Nearly all of the northern and east,
ern part of Guatemala is covered with
a dense tropical forest, consisting of
mahogany, different kinds of cedar,
chicle and other hard woods. Along
streams down which logs can be float
ed much of the mahogany has been
cut, but as yet very little of the other
woods have been marketed This is es.
pecially true OF the departments Of Pc
ten, Alta Verapaz and Izabal.
Most of the forests still belong to the
government, and the usual method Of
securing the timber is by concession,
by which a certain number OF trees are
cut at given price per tree, or a slip
ulated sum is paid for the timber on q
given tract. 1t is not an easy matter
to get titles to large tracts of land in
Guatemala, as it is discouraged by the
government. These concessions are not
usually granted for a longer period
than five years. Sometimes it is stipu-
lated that if certain number of trees
are cut during that time they must be
renewed.
The pine forests are limited, being in
the mountainous country principally
and inaccessible. Most of the lumber
used comes from the United States,
principally from California. The for.
ests Of this country are generally so
inaccessible that the railroad compa-
MES import nearly all their ties and
