mending the efforts of the Imperial

Their Duty to Watch
for Sfruved Travellers

The official title of small group of
young men who watch for lost travel
ers In the mountain passes of Switz-
erland during the winter Is SOLDIERS
OF the Snow" These soldiers are
young Italians who live on the Italian
side of the pass. They are exempted
from military service, even in case of
war, on condition that they aid all
lost travellers on the mountain passes.
They are supplied with uniforms to
distinguish them from smugglers, but
not with guns. Their duties are the
same as those of the monks of the
hospice with whom they are in con-
slant communication by telephone
During the long winter they watch all
Swiss and Italian slopes of the pass
for strayed travellers, hundreds Of
whom have been saved from a linger-
Ing death in the snow At some sea-
sons of the year the snow Is all melted
and ele traffic route through st. Ber-
nard's pass is open.

Great Wall of China
Longer Than Supposed

It is one of the Seven Wonders of
the World, medieval Europe wrote
poems about it, and the Great Lexicog-
rapher, friend to Miss Pinkham in
the days before Becky Sharp threw
the dictionary told a certain Scotch
writer to the signet that it was worth
a visit. Chinese poetry and legend Is
full of the names Of Kia-j -ju-kwan and
Shan-hai-kwa1l much as we speak Of
Dan and Beersheba. But few are the
eastern Chinese who have reached the
western end-.political exiIes, for the
most part, fleeing from poison or the
silken cord at Peking.
1t fell to Sir Aurel Stein of the
British museum to put an end to the
myth of Kia-ju-kwan by finding hun
dreds of miles of wall beyond it in
the desert, older and more romantic
still, built Of bundles of reeds and pop
lar branches anchored to driven posts.
But, important. as his discoveries are,
barely score of Chinese know of
them yet, and hence they have not
robbed Ki2ju-kwan of it's unique
Mace in Chinese lore-Langdon War

Holmes and Tuscarawas counties
that deer has been seen and is s. ill
at large in the eastern part of tha
state.
According to Director Truax.
there is a possibility of the eastern
deer having worked its way in from
Pennsylvania. However, both OF
these animals may have ESCAPED
from the Roosevelt Game Preserve,
the vast refuge maintained by the
Division Of Fish and Game of the
State Department of Agriculture,
near Portsmouth. The only draw
back to the latter theory, however,
is the improbability of these two an
imals reaching their present Ioaa-
ton without having been seen in the
counties they would have had to-
cross on their journey from the
Portsmouth Preserve. Ohio laws
clearly state that deer shall be pro-
teeted at all times and shall not be
harmed by hunters.
It is reported that a half grown
deer has been seen recently on In
jun run three miles northwest of
Marietta, in Washington county,
and that his mate-a neat, trim lit
tie doe was seen later in wooded
glen in the territory beyond Injun
run and Tunnel.
