ROMANTIC HILL TOWNS
THREATENED BY MODERNIff \

Rome, June 30.-Hill towns of Italy
which dot the landscape from north
to south and have been the subject
of writers and painters for centuries
are threatened with an invasion of
modern mechanical contrivances which
will rob them of their aged romance
and unspoiled picturesqueness.
The hill towns are relics Of the
old feudal system. The lord Of the
manor built his castle upon u hill
and the whole of his vassals clus-
tered their habitations about him. The
position on almost inaccessible heights
was sought for safety from invading
neighbors. These towns dotting the
hills stand today almost untouched
by the centuries. The walls of the
houses are thick and strong. Food
has been hauled up to the hills by
hand labor and horses since they
were built Women carried on their
heads the water and other household
necessities.
The plan now is to build Alpine rail
ways from the plains to the hills as
labor saving devices. The perfect
Alpine cable lines which the Italian
army built over the Alps during the
war are being sought for the work.
Already a number Of the towns have
applied to the ministry for the dis
carded Alpine cables so that they can
be erected for the towns.

The Studio of Physical Efficiency.

an institution long needed in Wash

lof. Physical culture in a concen-
trated form is the treatment admin
istered by Mr.. Herlof, who received
his early training in well-known
Scandinavian schools, coming to this
country just previous to the war and
entering the ranks of the American
army. Luring the war he received
special assignments in the Medical
Corps on account Of his knowledge
of the Swedish system Of gymnastics
and massage.
Mr.. Horlef has found, in his work.
that the majority OF patients shrink
from the idea Of one-sided and ex-
haustive gymnastIc exercises, and has
therefore arranged to give strictly
individual attention.

The movement Of sugar into the
United States Is continuing at a hish
rate. August imports are amount
ing to over 500,o pounds. The
normal imports as shown by the ay-
erage monthly movement in 1918 was
around $4,000 pounds. There was
q gradual incease to something over
100000 pounds per month in 1917.
Then In 1890 the average Of the year
jumped to $4,000 pounds the high
point being reached in July, when
over 100000 pounds Of sugar were
! imported. The rapi movement has

the prewar perio.
The natural result il that our
stocks have been increased over all
previous years. During 1918 the
ealiest available statistics show that
stocks on hand were about sl.311
tons. This increased in 1920 to lo5.-
357 tons and In August, 1921. 10
$4,000 tons. The August MEETINGS
Of raw sugar amounted to 414.545
tons. the heaviest Of the year except
In March and much above the aver
age Of 1913 and 1890.
Combining these facts concerning
the large balance OF supply in Cuba
heavy imports and large stocks, we
have a group OF indications that
sugar will be relatively plentiful and
cheap for some time to come. The
only prospective factor which may op-
crate to change price trends is a
possible increase in the tariff. As a
result Of the war stimulus the worl
production Of cane sugar increased
from around 100000 tons in 1913
to over 11.o0o.0 tons in 1920. while
beet sugar production decreased. ex-
