foot of the hills stands the modern
town of Adm. the second place of
Importance in the vilayet of Smyrna.
To-day this neighborhood is consid
cred the garden spot Of Asia Minor.
1t is the center of the fig district and
the. olives and wine produced are
much priced on account of their quail
ity. This is also the region in which
the best cotton in Asia Minor is
grown.
1t is probable that this valley was
kept in a much higher state of cult
walton in ancient times. When the
city surrendered to Alexander the
Great the figs of Tralles were cele-
brated throughout the ancient world
and it is weli-known fact that at
that time the hills along the whole
extent of the NIeander were covered
with forests which prevented, in
measure, the destructive foundations
which characterize the river today.
Ancient Tralles now lies imbedded
under vast orchard of olive trees.

STA MINOR is the stage upon which have been en-
acted some of the most stupendous events in the
history of mankind. Here the civilizations OF the
orient and the occident have met and struggled
for supremacy. The Persian and Greek, Roman
and Pontian Byzantine and Moslem, Crusader ana
Saracen Turk and MCgul. each in their turn came
upon the scene, and alternately overwhelmed
by the vicisstudes of human life. Fragments OF
columns, arches and temples now stand as silent
sentines over the tOmbs of their empires and cities
To-day these manged ruins present a melan-
choly picture, yet they cannot be viewed without
pleasure and regret The pleasure consists chiefly
in recalling the historical associations connected
with each, while the regret is caused by the fact
that nothing is done to prevent their further decay
and demolition and that in all probability future
generations will lay considerable blame upon the
present age for not having done more toward pre-
serving these interesting and instructive ruins from
an earlier destruction, at least than would presum-
ably be their destiny if left alone to the silent lapse
of time.
