SAN SALVADOR: DEFER

San Salvador, scene of recent earth
quake shocks, is the capital of the
smallest and most populous of Central
American republics. The city is no
stranger to the twin terrors of earth
quake and volcano.
Within ten seconds an earthquake all
but destroyed it in 1854, another laid
1t low in 1873, and that of 1917, when
millions of dollars worth of property
was destroyed, is still remembered.

REODESIA: THE LAND OF
MEN, WILD BEASTS AND
NATURAL BEAUTY

Africa, not so long ago regarded for
the most part, as a "sepulcher of the
worlds most daring explorers" now
engages the attention of the world be-
cause of its vast natural resources and
it's industrial possibilities.
Material furnished the National
Geographic society by r. d. Parsons,
is the basis for the following descrip-
ton of Rhodesia:
interior Rhodesia must be ira
versed by native carriers over noun
tains, through primeval forest, across
rivers, through almost impenetrable
jungle and underbrush, in peril from
elephants, lions leopards, hyenas, SER
pents, the tsetse fly, wild men as well
as wild beasts Each carrier has a
mail bag of so pounds. On an average
carriers make 25 miles a day, and even
on runs of 6,000 miles, from Broken
Hill to Abercorn, they are seldom
more than an hour behind schedule
time and generally only half that.
They make better time in the wet
season than in the dry as, in the wet,
they travel in bare feet, while in the
dry the earth is baked, the ground is
hot like THE Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes and they are compelled to
wear sandals.
There is one great drawback to the
wet; no material has yet been pro-
duced that can resist African rain.
1t laughs at the average rubberized
fabrics. One of the few partly sue
cessful materials is peculiarly WOW
en- canvas made in England, and even
when mail bags of this material are
opened, the contents are simply pulp
valueless, and frequently undecipher-
able. Glazed paper suffers most; why,
l do not know. l suppose it is the
combination of heat and water.
"The plunge of Victoria Falls on the
Zambezi is three times that of our
Niagara the roar Is heard for 10 miles,
and the column of vapor is miles high.
In the dialect of Mashonaland' and
Matabeleland, it's name means the
water that smokes
"From Kasempa TO Livingstone
(yictoria Falls) is $50 miles, from
Livingstone to Bulawayo 290, and from
Kasempa to Cape Town 2,290 miles.
The fauna of Rhodesia is wonderful;
think of II kinds of antelopesl
although the tsetse fly is~an abom-
Unable pest, it takes second place as
a destroyer of property value to our
American pest, the boil weevil. A
singular popularity of the first named
consists in its habit of biting human
beings, horses and oxen on the feet.
When animals are shipped from Cape
Town to North Rhodesia, the shipping
is done at night, because, unlike the
mosquito, the tsetse fly works only in
the daytime. 1t prefers to work on
the legs, and in case of horses these
are done up in paraf,in and cloths.
1t should be understood that this foe
to man and beast is confined to certain
districts"

Mrs, RenShaW Hostess
to Calvary Guild

The Episcopal Calvary guild
met Wednesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. w. e. Renshaw.
and as Is always true when Mrs.
Renshaw extends her hospi-
tality to friends, the afternoon
was most pleasantly spent. The
business session was preside d
over by the president, Mrs. S. L.
Burger, and one item of partie uiar
interest and which is worthy OF
public mention is that the guild,
inasmuch as no Christmas enter
tainment will be held at the Epls-
copal church, voted to send a
Christmas gift to the Methodist
and Presbyterian churches, 81 90
each and $500 to Mrs. Stavers
class of the Presbyterian SUNDAY
school, The amount combined,
makes $40 gift, which sum is
usually expended for the Christ
mas tree aud its trimmings, treats
etc., at the Episcopal church.
This showed the good will of the
ladies of the guild, and proves
that the real Christ mas spirit had
been instilled into their hearts.
The ladies spent the remainder
of the time in sewing, and socially
and before their depar ture, the,
were invited to the dining room
where lovely two-course luncheon
was served. The long m 4hogany
table at which thirteen (but nol
unlucky) ladies were seated, was
beautiful with its dainty luncheon
set, and the centre piece of snow
white linen was given artistic
coloring by the addition OF large
red satin bows, bunch of holley
being fastened at either end. Four

TRIESTE: A PLUM OF THE
ADRIATIC DISPUTE

Trieste is one of the major Adriatic
plums in dispute between Italy and
the newly-formed Jugo-Slav state, the
kingdom of the Serbs, Greats and
Slovenes.
Though Trieste was Austrian, ex-
cept for a brief interval from the
fourteenth century until the World
war dissipated the Austrian empire,
the city has had a marked effect upon
Italian history. It's chief Importance
to Austria was commercial, for it was
the dual monarchy's only great sea-
port.
Tired of a double allegiance to
Venice and to Aquieleia, Trieste re-
quested that she be annexed to Aus
tria in 1882. Leopold the pious was
on the Austrian throne. He was a
rival to King James of England in
being "the wisest fool in all Christen-
DOM" Though he expanded his ter
ritory elsewhere, the only acquisition
of consequence was that of Trieste,
won through no effort on his part.
Thus Austria gained what was des-
tined to become not only a seaport of
Importance, but also a channel for ex-
erting frequent influence upon the af-
fairs of Italian towns and their rulers.
The city is situated on the Gulf of
Trieste, 367 miles southwest of Vienna
by rail. 1t lies on the seaward slope
of the Karst, or Carso, strip of lime
stone hills extending inland from 60 to
90 miles, furrowed with ravines and
pierced by caverns, into which many
small streams disappear.
Not far from Trieste, at Briscilxi, is
the Grotto Giganta, stalactite cave,
where tourists throng to see the
"Great Dome" spreading over sub
terranean cavity nearly as long as the
United States capitol and a hundred
feet higher than the capitol dome,
Despite its inclusion in Austrian ter
ritory, Trieste's population and archi-
lecture are Italian. 1t was the Ter
geste of Roman history, and today the
walls and pillars of a Roman temple
may be seen encased in the cathedral
of San Gfusto, q highly composite
structure which also has built into it
| three adjacent structures of the six
teenth century-a Christian basilica,
| baptistery and a Byzantine church.
| Traces of Trieste's early history
were to be found before the war in
! the Museo Lapidarie, which contains
many Roman antiquities from the VI
cinity.

Curious pyramids and ramparts be-
token a civilization known as Mayan,
even before the region was settled by
the Pipiles, an carly Mexican speaking
people. From such slender threads as
the fact that steps of these pre-his-

wide, must science piece out the re-
lations of the various ancient states
and cities that fourished on this con-
tinent during the halcyon days of

Colorado Man Is
the Biggest Marine

New York, Dec. 9.-Because
there are no uniforms in the ma
rine corps large enough to fit him,
Reuben A. Pratt, 30 years old, a
husky recruit who arrived here
today from Denver, is having a
special outfit of miitry togs made
to order by the quarteruaster de-
partment.
Pratt, who was formerly black
smith, stands six feet nine inches
in his stocking feet and tips the
beam at 2S7 pounds. The recruit
ing officers had to get permission
from the higher authorities to
enlist him, as he tops the height
limit of the marine corps by seven
inches. Pratt will make an ideal
drum major or will come in handy
for strengthening out the colors
when they get tangled on the flag
pole. As soon as his tailor made
uniform arrives he will be assigned
to duty at the New York recruiting
office.
