WRESTLING Is CENTURIES
OLD; CREEKS KNEW HOLDS
Holds Believed to be Modern Are
Shown on Old Ton1bs on Banks
Of the Nile-Egyptians Were
Expert Grapplers.

Wrestling is as old as the hills. In
the days when men lived in caves
clothed themselves with fig leaves i'm
summer, and with skins i'm winter
wrestling was part of their mode of
fighting, when hands were the only
weapons used in warfare or the chase,
when physical strength was the DOM
inant destructive force.
That the changes wrought i'm the
mode of life during the long cycle of
years to the present day have not in
jured the art; that it exists practically
as ii was i'm the dim. uncertain ages
of the past, softencd and mellowed
since, perhaps in some of the rude es-
sentials, is made. manifest by the rec
ords which have stood all these years
mocking the attempts of the old mill
stone of mans hapaicraft, Father Time
To efface them.
In the temple tombs of iscni IIasan,
located near the banks of the Nile,
hcwn i'm stone, wrestlers are depicted
i'm various positions. exemplifying all
the holds and falls that the modern ex-
ponents of wrestling now use i'm their
bouts. In tombs No. 16 and II the fig
ures of the wrestlers represent nearly
$50 positions. 1t would seem from this
that the Egyptians were masters of the
art of wrestling and that the present
day athlete scarcely deviates from the
methods they employed.
1t is from the Egyptians that the
Greeks obtained their knowledge of
wrestling. The figures i'm the Benz
Hasan tombs prove this. The Greeks
were the greatest fighters of those
days, and il was but natural that they
adopted sports as means to develop
their physical condition. Hence IL was

and elsewhere at stated intervals.

The women Of Venice are absolutely

With them the length of the skirt re-
mains always the same. neither short
nor long. and they always wear plainly
made dark dresses, black stockings and
the heelless slippers of the east. Hats
are unknown.
The universal outdoor wrap for oil

er fastened at the throat. and when 1t
slips off 1t is gai ihered up with one out
stretched arm. which makes the spec.
tator think of big bird stretching .ts
