Lofty Tibet,

Although the mystery concerning
Tibet has been mostly diSsipated as Il
result of the English invasion, the GU
rious nature of that country continues
to excite great interest. Think of al

600 and 100000 square miles and hay.

feet, which is considerably higher
than Mont Blanc! The lofticst peaks
reach an altitude of about 10000 feet,
while the deepest valleys, in the high
er parts Of the plateau, do not descend
below 14,40O feet, which is higher
than Pixies peak. Toward the south
the valleys sink lower, and rice and
fruit are cultivated up to 1880 feet.
Here the most important centers of
population are found-Lassa, ShigatSf

that the Atlantic feet was on the Pa

off that station. There may not be time
for this. however. in view of the program
