The total value Of antiquities ex-
ported under license during this Pc
riod amounts only to few thousand
dollars. says a Palestine letter to the
New York Morning Telegraph. As
the national collection becomes more
complete, the proportion Of antiqui-
ties released for export to foreign mu-
seums will automatically increase. In
the province Of the inspectors 1,467
historical sites and monuments have
been formally registered, and meas

The chief feature Of the Guillaums

BUFFALO HERDS HAVE GROWN
Animals In Canadian Government Pre-
serves Must Be Killed to Prevent
Evil Of Overcrowdino.

Twenty-Five years ago the Canadian
government purchased small herd
of buffalo and placed 1t In national
mark at Banff. For several years the
herd was regarded merely as an oh
ject Of curiosity. Then game pre-
serve was decided upon, and the herd.
together with other buffalo acquired
from a United States rancher, was
turned into the inclosure. The pre-
serve is located at Wainwright, Alta,
and extends over 1872 square miles Of
sandy prairie which was considered
unsuitable for agriculture. The buf-
falo, TOO in number, thrived from the
start, and last spring the caretakers
counted 6,148 Of the animals. Al
though the 1922 "crop" cannot be
counted until the bison are herded
into their winter quarters, 1t Is esti-
mated that there will be an addition
Of at least 1000 calves. Besides this
herd at Wainwright. there are other
buffalo in Canada in sufficient pum-
bers to bring the total up to approx
mately 5000 head. and the govern
ment is preparing to kill about 1000
Of them every year to- prevent the
preserves from becoming overcrowd-

"Joy" or TRAVEL IN EUROPE
According to One Who Has Been
There, II 10 One Long sueees-
sion Of Discomforts.

When one considers the discomforts
Of European travelling 1t is astonishing
that one ever travels at all, writes
Auriol Barron In the London Daily
Telegraph. The indignity Of the Gus
tom houses and the rudeness Of the
officials must deter many from cross
ing the border.
Boxes are ransacked and turned
topsy-turvy, dirty hands finger your
most alluring dresses and you are not
allowed, apparently, to have any arti-
Gle Of clothing that Is not a hundred
years old.
Whether thing looks new or not,
your integrity Is questioned I argued
for 20 minutes with a Czech official
about fan which had been in my
possession for two years and had late
ly returned from the shop wnere 1t
had been mended.
At the Czecho-Germ frontier
saw a large cupboard full Of ob5ets
confisques. Among these were several
books, ordinary novels On inquiry
was Informed that each traveller was
only permitted to bring two books for
his personal use into the country, and
these must bear his signature on the
front page. Chocolate is also forbid
den, and any travelling trunk which
does not present a battered appear
ance on leaving Germany Is appropri-
ated by the douaniers or Its owner is
made to pay tax amounting to more
than the original cost. I heard OF q
case where an entire trunk was emp
tied, its contents flung upon the floor
and the offending purchase confiscated.
Another time a child was deprived
Of its shoes, as the soles looked new,
and literally forced to continue his
Journey in midwinter In his stockinged
feet. The very clothes on your back
are examined, and fur coats are
liable to be taxed unless you can
prove where and when they were
bought or have had them previously
stamped at another frontier.

To psxelop canada,s Clay oeposIts.

Numerous varieties Of valuable clay
deposits, some of these being BRICK
tile, earthenware and fire clays, have
long been known to exist in Saskatche-
wan, Canada. To promote knowledge
Of these deposits and to encourage
their development. the provincial au-
thorities have recently included a
course Of ceramics in the curriculum
of the Saskatchewan university. Thus
although there are no pottery-manufac-
turing plants in this province at pres
ent, the people Of that section OF the
Dominion are obviously aware of the
possibilities in the situation and are
taking steps to make Saskatchewan

Of brick, tile, pottery. or other PROD

ed and the atmosphere was decidedly

about the trip was the sadness re-
fected here and there during the last
two days, John d. Barry writes In
the Minneapolis Tribune.
"Well, Wen never be together

other said, II hate to leave all these

Since that time, after voyages OF q
week or more, even Of ships where
the passengers have been rather de-
tached, I've noticed somewhat SIM
liar feeling.
Among college students it's well
known that during the last year Of
college there's pretty general soft
ening up. In..the mems college It's
very marked. 1 suppose It's just as
marked in the women's colleges. per
haps more so.
Men who had cherished grudges
against each other for months or
years and hadn't spoken would begin
to speak again and would perhaps
become friepds Acquaintances that
had passed with a slight nod would
grow more agreeable. Somehow ami
mostly, chilllness, all unpleasant be-
havior began to seem foolish. 1t be-
came clear that in this association
there was something worth while,
something that hadn't~been fully ap-
preciated before. and that the thing
to do was to make the most Of It
