years perhaps. Much will be heard about friction
between our government and the British over this
question of shipping, but it may be taken for
granted that America is maintaining a pretty fair
kind of an understanding with her British friends
on the proposition.
From the British shipping interests there prob

fact that America is branching out as a powerful
factor in the shipping business. But these bowls,

DUTCH WOMEN
Want TO VOTE

The Hague, Dec. 26.-The ideals and
ideas of Dutch women, for centuries
confined to children, kitchen and
church, have undergone change and
the daughters of the land of wind
mills and canals are making a strong
fight for their rights.
Several great organizations have
been formed for Improvement Of the
conditions of women. With the re-
vision of the Dutch constitution last
year, women obtained full suffrage
and the result is that now there are
women in nearly every town council.
Realizing, however, that the pos
session of the vote alone does not de-
eide the lot of women, the promoters
Of the movement are now seeking to
bring about changes in the laws and
regulations which discriminate against
the sex economically and socially.

THIS THE GARDEN OF EDEN7
Many Believe That Territory In Which
Famous Spot Was Situated Has
Been Located.

sand the Lord God planted a garden
to the eastward in Eden And river
went out of Eden to water the garden |;
and 1t was parted into four heads."-
Genesis.
Sir William Wlllcocks, who, In be-
half Of the British government, has
had charge of the wonderful irrigation
works In Egypt, was assigned not long
ago to the duty of planning a similar
large-scale enterprise for the restora-
ton Of ancient Babylonia to its former
agricultural productiveness.
Thus it happened that he located, to
the reasonable satisfaction of archie
oIogists, the veritable site of the Gar
den Of Eden. For reasons wholly prac-
teal he thought that the best way to
begin.
Starting from the spot where Jewish
tradition placed the gates Of paradise
the word paradise" meaning gar
den-he followed the traces of the
four streams mentioned in Genesis,
which, as therein named, were the Pr
son, the Gihon, the Hlddekel and the
Euphrates.
The Euphrates (known by that name
today flowed through the great city
Of Babylon. The Gihon Is now called
the linda. The Hiddekel is the mod
ern Sakhlawia, which flows into the
Tigris at Bagdad. The Pison has gone
dry, but is represented by many
armed channels accomplishing the
whole land Of Havilath" (see Genesis),
which lay between Egypt and Assyrla.
The Euphrates enters its delta a
few miles below Hit, there leaving the
desert and debouching into vast al
luyial plain. In this departure 1t has
considerable fall. with a number 81
cataracts, and along a narrow valley
giant water wheels lift water to irri-
gate Of the land on both sides Of the
stream. ~
The entrance to this valley (accord-
ing to Jewish tradition) was the gate
Of the Paradise in which Adam and
Eve dwelt, and from which they were
expelled for disobeying divine com.
mand. There the traveller first meets
the date palm, which is stree of life"
tsee Genesis1 to the whole Arab world,
Along the valley garden succeeds
garden. 1t is today veritable para.
disc, orchards and date groves check
cred with fields Of cotton. The climate
is everlasting summer, SO TINT three OF
four crops a year may be grown.
Anciently the cataracts were much
higher, and water wheels were unnec
essary, the water being led off BY
bitches.
The Garden of Eden, indeed, gains
interest from the fact that 1t seems to
have been the first irrigated area in
the world.
