SOUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY TRIESTE: A PLUM OF THE ADRIATIC DISPUTE Ti (yate ih one or the major Adriatic plums In (llvpu i e between Italy ami tlu' newly-formed Jugoslav state, the Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Though Trieste was Austrian, ex cept for a brief Interval ^toiii the fourteenth century- un'll the World war dissipated the Austrian empire, the city has had a marked effect upon Italian history. Its chief importance to Austria was commercial, for It was the dual nrtmarchy'* only great sea port. Tlrod of a double allegiance to Venice and to Aquleleia. Trieste re-' quested that she be annexed to A us-. j trla In KI82. Leopold the pious was on the Austrian throne. lie was a I rival to King James of ICngland In i being "the wisest fool III all Christen- 1 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 Austila gained what was des tined to become not only a seaport of Important e. but also a channel for ex ert inj,; frequent influence upon the af fairs of Italian towns and their rulers. The city K situated on the Gulf of Tri'e^ie.. IMJ7 miles southwest of Vienna | by rail. It lies on the seaward, slope 1 of the Karst, <?r Carso, a strip of lime- j stone hills extending Inland from GO to 90 miles, furrowed with ravines and pierced by caverns. Into which many small streams disappear. Not far from Trieste, at Rrisclkt. Is the Grotto Giganta, a stalactite cave. ? where tourists throng to see the "Great Dome." spreading over a 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 tecture are Italian. It was the Ter geste of Hotnnn history, and today the walls and pillars of a Itouiap temple may be seen encased in the cathedral ! of San Glusto, a highly composite structure which also has built Into it three adjacent structures of the six teenth century ? a Christian basilica, -a baptistery and a Byzantine church. Traces of Trieste's early history werp to be found before the war in the Museo Lnpldnrle, which contains many Itoman antiquities from the vi cinity. & SAN SALVADOR: DEFIER OF EARTHQUAKES Sun 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 1864, another laid It low in 1873, and that of 1917, when millions of dollars' worth of property wa? destroyed, is still remembered. In spite of these fateful blows from nature, and devastating waves of man made revolutions, Sun Salvador today Is reckoned among the important cities of the mid-eontlnent. ft has a popu Where Lava Blocked a San Salvador ' H Ighway. j In r i?>n of GO'HX); lis manufactured pr< ?? 1 1 1 1 - 1 s 1 1 1 ? ?

RHODESIA: THE LAND OF MEN, WILD BEASTS AND NATURAL BEAUTY Africa, not so long ago regarded, for the most part, as a "sepulcher of. the world's most during explorers," now engages the attention of the work! be cause of Its vast natural resources and its Industrial possibilities. Material furnished tho National Geographic society by 11. I). Parsons, is the basis for the following descrip tion of Rhodesia : "Interior Rhodesia must be tra versed by native carriers over moun tains, through primeval forest, across rivers, through almost impenetrable jungle and underbrush, In peril from elephants, lions, leopards, hyenas, ser pents, the tsetse tly, wild men as well as wild beasts. Each carrier has a mail bag of 50 pounds. On an average carriers make 25 iuiles a day, and even on runs of 6,000 miles, from Broken Hill to Abercorn, they ar? 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. It laughs at the average rubberized fabrics. One of the few partly suc cessful materials Is a peculiarly wov en canvas made in England, and even when mall bags of this material are opened, the contents are simply pulp ? valueless, and frequently undecipher able. Glazed paper suffers most; why, I do not know. I 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 19 miles, and the column of vapor Is miles high. In the dialect of Mashonaland and Matabeleland, Its name means 'the water that smokes.' "From Kasempa to Livingstone (Victoria Falls) is 580 miles, from Livingstone to Bulawayo 290, and from Kasempa to Cape Town 2,290 miles? The fauna of Rhodesia Is wonderful ; think of 17 kinds of antelopes! "Although the tsetse fly Is an abom inable pest, it takes second place as a destroyer of property value to our American pest, the boll weevil. A singular peculiarity 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. It prefers to work on the legs, and in case <>f horses these are done up In pa ratlin and cloths It should be understood that this f?>e to man and boast is confined to certain districts." HOW ARMAGEDDON PROFITED PERSIA That exceedingly ill wind, the rl <1 war, Mew much good to one nation. Persia. for the higher price of sd\er doubled her capital, tint d ? ? her r;i \\ materials sought after hy the world. nn<l removed her from comparative Isolation to a place among commer cial nations of high importance. Writ ing to the National (leographlc society concerning this rejuvenated undent land. i:i la C\ Sykea says: "Persia is one of t he oldest empires In existence. It has been a kingdom for 2." centuries ? ever since Cyrus the (Jreat, about .r>.~?0 R. C.. conquered Media and united the countr> t;? his und^r the name of Persia. It has had many glorious episodes in its long his tory ; has produced the great teacher Zoroaster ; such world-famous poets as Kirdavsi. Omar Khay>am.

"The I'erslan is of Aryan stock,. and Iihs the same word* as ourselves for father, mother, brother ami daughter (polar, nunlar; hradai>, and dukhtar), and the Construct lod of his language is like that of IC.ngllsli. "Many Persians have no home life In the usual sense of the word. A Persian house Is divided into the hi roonl. or men's apartments, and the uuderoom, or part consecrated lo the women. A strong door, set in a high blank wall, given entrance to a nar row passage that leads into a square courtyard on which opeu several rooms. Here the men live, and here they usually entertain their friends, while their women dwell in rooms sej round an Inner courtyard, the only entrance to which is through t he hlrooni. "As a Persian is Instructed from earliest youth that a woman's advice is of no account ? in fact the priests it'll hi m that he had better do the exact opposite of what a woman coun sels ? It can be understood that as a rule he has no exalted opinion of his wife or wives, and seldom turns to them for companionship." CZECHOSLOVAKIA: BORN ABOARD FREIGHT TRAINS Amid , the disorders of Central Eu rope one uew nation affords a 'con spicuous exception to the chap.**, strife and revolutions prevalent on all sides of her. That nation is Czechoslo vakia The inception of this new national ity from a racial unit of ancient and j distinguished lineage is a modern ro mance comparable to the crusade* of the middle ages. 1 Early in 1918 the intrepid Czech | warriors started out from the Kiev district of western Russia In railway cars. Home of which were decorated with the slogan, "From War to War -Around the World." At that time It looked ns though the summer of 1918 would find them in Champagne or the Argonne, joined with the thousands of their compa triots who 'were already fighting in the allied armies to down the Hun. But a strange combination of circum stances delayed them in Siberia through the short summer of long days and the long winter of little sunshine. A communication follows from Maynard Owen Williams, first Amer ican correspondent with the spectacu lar anabasis of the Czecbo-Slovaks across Siberia: "Xenophon had a fine trip, If one Is to Judge from the accounts of his favorite press agent, and Napoleon and Sherman have made famous ex cursions, but when It comes to the world encircling vision of the tourist bureau writer, and the doggedness of death, the wonderful Czechs take the palm.
