Take two instances quoted by the intelligent young men

lofty thought is expressed in "The Better Way

the world was round."
Centuries before Copernicus born, Greek and
Arabian thinkers only believed but KNEW that the
world round and said So
Copernicus happened to live at a time when it was

leg. The noise which I had heard from all over the city came straight from his beak, the hollow upper and lower halves of which he was striking together with incredible rapidity."
 In the Bazaars and Square.
 The bazaars of Mosul are not the attractive places they might be ex- pected to be in a city of so much traf- fic. AS William Warfeld says in his book, 'The Gate of Asia" they are rarely roofed, and are furnished only With the cOmmOnest wares. The shop keepers are generally Christians, but there are many Arabs. Garden prod uce is often sold in the squares in open markets, and at any time vendors may be seen talking in the streets, with eggs or cucumbers in a basket, while the mosque courtyards are favored places for sweetmeat sellers, who dis play Turkish delight" on scalloped copper trays. The bazaars radiate from picturesque square quite near the bridge, which is the center of the town. To the south and southwest are the drapers, shoemakers and har- ness makers; to the northwest the greengrocers, while the potters and dealers in hardware are to be found in narrow stores opening on a street that runs to the north.
 AS to the square itself, it is of course, one of the famous meeting places of Mosul. Here the caravans are gathered together, and their own CTS sit on the famous second-story gallery of a coffee shop, while the muleteers stroll about the crowded place, or lounge among bales covered with brown and white striped sack cloth. These men are almost always Kurds, those from the southern and eastern tribes dressed in tunics, ZOu- ave jackets and turbans. They wear baggy trousers reaching to their feet which are covered with brogues of heavy hemp or rawhide.
 Site of Ancient Nineveh.
 For many people the great attrac- tion of visit to Mosul, the most in- accessible place in the sultan's domin- ion, lies across the famous "bridge of boats" at the other side of the Tigris. where the huge, fOrmless mounds, ris- ing up out of the sand, mark the site of the ancient city of Nineveh. Any attempt to tell the story of Nineveh would involve a journey back to the very beginning of things. Later As syrian writers declare with confidence that it's story ran back as a matter of course to the "creatiOn of the world" put, as matter of fact. the first firm ground in the midst of tradition is reached about the year 220OB e. That wonderfully vivid period in Nineveh's history with which the world, espe- cially recently, has become familiar, lies between the ninth and sixth cen turies B. c. In this period the reign of Sennacherib is of course by far the most important.
 Nineveh, however, depended entire ly for it's greatness and power upon the conquering spirit of it's rulers and the military glory and powers of it's armies, and when these were ultimate ly defeated the city fell, never to rise again, and it's very site was quickly forgotten among the nations.
