Key Ceremony in London
Tower Centuries Old

London.-Few Americans who
have visited the tower Of Lon
don have ever witnessed the
ceremony Of the keys, though 1t
has taken place nightly for
many centuries.
The ye0man porter, with an
escort Of guards. still nightly
locks the gates. Behind him
still walks "A varlet at two
pence night TO carry the keys"
and, broad daylight or no, fol-
lows the bugler with the Ian
tern.
Halt, who comes there?" de-
mands the sentry.
"The keys" replies the yeo-

TRADE AVENUES

Constantinople.-Owins to the gen.

in t1le Balkans and other parts OF the
Leyant, II is expected that trade ave-
pues between the Near East and west
ern Europe and the Americas Will be
revised In manner that will benent
the western nations that stand ready
TO meet the new conditions.
In the opinion of most experts IA

a greater proportion Of shipping direct

In other words manufacturers Will
yet into direct touch with merchants
in big distribution centers and elim-
mate the middIemen and the trans
shipment in ConsrantinOple to a con-
siderable extent. The limited and un-
satisfactory docking facilities In Con-
stantinOple and the prices demanded
by the lighterage trust and shipping
agents dominated by various Euro
pean governments are regarded as
making this imperative.
Admiral Mark Bristol. the American
high commissioner. recently visited
Bulgaria, and is much impressed by
The thrift and industry of the Bulga-
rians and the skillfuI way In which
they have cultivated all their land In
m effort TO throw off the bad effects
OF the war. He believes that Varna
and Bourgas are destined to become
much more important because Of the
intelligence and industry Of the Bull
garians.
Odessa. in the opinion of many stu
dents Of Black sea commerce, will
never again be as important relatively
,as 1t was before the war. II Bessara-
bia remains in the hands of Roumania
II is expected here that tariff wall
will 20 up which will prevent Odessa
from controlling the trade Of that
rich area as II did In the past.
The business Of Sebastop0l, 1heo-
dosia and other Crimean ports Is COM
paratlvely small. NovorOssiysk. the
grain-sslpping center for the rich
farming districts OWNED by the Cos
sacks. has equipment for shipping Pc

ter for zinc ore. potash. oilcake and
many other prodrrts.
Georgian Ports to Gain.
Poti and Ratum, the two Georgian
ports. afford an entrance to Persia
and the entire trans-CaspIan area and
are looked upon as centers which will
eventually assume great Importance
because Of their unlimited petroleum
supply piped In from Baku. These two
ports supply population of about
S.0nu.GNO.
Before the war Poti was exporting
between 5h1,Gm and GOO 900 tons OF
manganese annually from the mex
hauStible deposits near Kurais. Most
of this went 10 Germany, although the
United States and England took small
quantities. In 1913 the United States
received l26,I96 tons Of the Georgian
manganese. These ports also ship
much circassan walnut and lIcorice
root. The ore. coal and oil ports are
the ceR'ers to which American ship
ping will more naturally turn for re-
turn cargOes.

his recent tour of the Near East.
Mrs. Fisher, interested In philan.

advice that Feisal retreated 10 the
mountains when the French threat
ened Damascus with destruction and
later went TO England to demand that
the promise made him during the war
that he was 10 be- ruler Of the new

Mrs. Fishers ambition now Is to

ways are not our ways Their way
Of thinking is not ours because they
have been handicapped by lack Of

these people a little Of the practical
common sense Of our American wom-

what these Arabs will accomplish"
Mrs Fisher has issued an rdict to
Arab women to discard European dress
and return 10 the fashions Of their
own land. TO accomplish this she has
established schools where Arab women
and girls are being taught to make
and embrodrr dresses from material
made in their own country. She has
ordered the revival of silk and wool
