The River Jordan.

Religion, history and nature conspire
to make the Jordan the most famous
river of the earth. Across it the hosts
of Israel were led into the Promised
Land; in it's waters the Christian rite
of baptism had it's birth; up and down
it's valley many civilizations in the
morning of history rose and fell. Per-
haps the strangest thing about this ia
nous river is that none of the ancients
ever guessed that its mouth was be-
low the level Of the sea. 1t was not
until 1874 that accurate measurements
were made and the mouth of the river
was found 1892 feet below the Medi-
terranean. less than sixty miles away.
