Euboea, The Temporary Home
Of The E1iled King Peter Of
Serbia, Has Much History

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 1S.-Eu-
boea, the Greek island in the Aegean
Sea, where the exiled King Peter of
Servia is reported to have found tenn
rorary asylum, is the subject of today's
war geography bulletin issued by the
National Geographic Society from
Washington, which says:
The northern promontories of Eu-
boea, on one of which the aged, throne
less sovereign of the nation which
plunged Europe into the greatest war
in the worlds history is reported to
have taken refuge, are themost inter
esting sections of this island which
became a part of the kingdom of
Greece in 1880.
"Euboea corresponds in size almost
exactly to Long Island, New York,
having an area only four square miles
larger than the latter. 1t extends al
ong the northeastern shore of Greece,
being little less than 100 miles long.
and varying in width from to 30
miles. 1t is separated from Boeotia by
the narrow Euboic Sea, which becomes
CONSTRUCTED to the Strait of Euripus at
the seaport of Chalcis, town of about
5000 inhabitants. At this point the
island is separated from the mainland
by only a few yards. A rock rising
from the waters Of the strait forms an
anchorage for stone bridge between it
and the mainland, and for a swinging
bridge toward Chalcis, the latter being
necessary to allow vessels to pass
through the channel, where at irreg-

Warning that an epidemic of infantile

the Euboeans reyolted from Athens

IF King Peter has chosen the north
eastern promontory of Euboea as his
home while awaiting the day when he
hopes the entente allies will succeed in
driving the enemy Teutons from Serv-
ian soil, he can overlook the waters
where the battle of Artemisium was
fought in $50 B. c., prelude to the
greater glory of Salamis and the her
Gle defense of the Pass of Thermopy-
lac. 1t was at Artemisium that the
Greek fleet, commanded by Themis-
tccles, the father of the Athenian
wooden walls as her navy came to be
known, met the superior naval forces
of Xerxes in a three days battle
While not achieving a decisive yistory
the patriotic fleet received its baptism
of blood which prepared it for subse-

hordes.
IF, on the other hand, the exile has
chosen the more salubrious northwest

Mt. Gaetscades with it's heights clothed
il medicinal shrubs, he will be able to
enjoy the famous Baths of Heracles
These sulphur waters, which are still
much frequented by Greeks who suffer
from govt, rheumatism and digestive
ailments, afforded a favorite retreat for
the Roman dictator Cirnelus Sulla, sci;
styled Venus fayorite,' but known to
his enermies as half lion, half fox.
One of the few acts of clemency re-
corded of Sulla was his removal of the
names of Julius Caesar from the pro-
scribed list of adherents of the Marius
party. In sparing the life Of this youth

were supposed to have occurred. 1t
was after he had accomplished his
twelve labors that Hercules erected an
altar in Euboea to his father, Zeus. He
sent a messenger, Lichas, to Thracis
for white robe to be used in the ded-
ication ceremonies. Lichas brought a
cloak given to him by the jealous
Deinira who believed that the garment,
dipped in the blood of the dying CEN
taur Nessus, was love charm. 1t
proved to be fiery and fatal poison.
Hercules, as soon as he felt the sting
OF the coat, hurled the innocent Lichas
over a cliff, near the village which
now bears the latters name which may
be King Peters retreat.
