CHERSO: MAY BE THE
HELGOLAND OF
ADRIATIC
The llapallo agreement of last No
vember which llxed, the status of tho
troublcsomo city of Flume and dis
posed of other moot points In regard
to territory on tho eastern shore of
the Adriatic sea, gave Italy tin Im
portant foothold near Flume In the ob
scure island of Clierso.
Prnctlcally unheard of on this sldo
of the Atlantic, eluding most travel
ers, even escaping many of the seek
ers after tho llttle-kuown places of
Europe, Cherso neither is inaccessl
ble nor unattractive.
It dangles llku a pendant In the
Gulf of Quarnoro, low hung from tho
neck of Flume. It Is the Long Island
of that port, Its shore line rising 12
miles to the south. Its slender form
extends to the southwest for -10 nines',
though It never exceeds seven miles In
width, antt Its ureal Is somewhat more
than twice that of tho District of
Columbia.
Holding In mind this location, near
the head of the Adriatic, in view of
the plans to mnke Flume u buffer
state between Italy nnd Jugo-Sluvla,
the strategic possibilities of Cherso
become apparent. Inded one mny pie
ture It as a potential Helgoland of
tho Adriatic.
A natural curiosity of the Island Is
Lake Vrana, or Crow's Lake, with n
surface 40 feet above, the sea level.
fed and drained by Invisible streams.
The island is rugged, with ono moun
tnln peak rising more thnn 2,000 feet
above the Quarncro waters. Glbral
tnr-llku rocks rise precipitously
1,000 feet along ono ot Its shores
Here are the dome-like caverus of
Smergo, now protected from the sea
by a wave-built rock barrier.
Tho devastating Bora, which sweeps
the Dalmatian coast, drips its salt
spray over Clierso, excluding many va
rletles of plant life. Tho absence of
large trees and scnrclty of springs
are two physical characteristics. In
tho north laurel and mastic grow, and
vines and olive trees abound In tho
southern portion.
Politically Cherso was included In
Istrla, when under Austrian rule
With Its neighbor Islands, Lussin, to
the southwest, nnd Vcglia, to the
east, It was a part of the Lussin dls
trlct.
Cherso lies off the shores of the
northern part of Dalinntla and the
jCrontlnn littoral, a region formerly
known as Jlorlacchla. Tho Morluc
chin channel preserves this name orlg
lnatlng with the Slnvlc Invaders of
Dalmatla, who "called the Latinized
people tiiey round there vlachs, or
Mavro-Vlachs Black Vlachs." Thus
the Slavs of this region hnvo come to
be known, by a corruption of this
title, as Morlachs.
In rural districts Morlacchlan worn
en retnln their historic costume, which
Includes a kerchief for the head, many
strands of beads, a waist band from
which hang amulets and various trlnk
ets, nnd, over a blue cloth gown, an
apron of exquisite embroidered pat
tern. About her neck nn unmarried
girl wears a string of coins nnd rings
which comprise her dowry. Formerly

Tabriz, capital of Persia, from

It Is beautifully situated In n wide

DIGGING INTO HISTORY
WITH PICK AND
SHOVEL
Iteccnt deciphering of a clny tablet
which mny add n thousand years to
the span of recorded history for It
contains a code of laws said to ante
date thai of Ilamtuurahl by u mil
lennium Is another reminder that
arclieologlsts are finding stranger true
stories than Action can reveal. The
pick nnd the spade of the explorer
have resulted In astounding revolu
tions, says a communication to, the
National Geographic society from Al
bert T. Clay, who has deciphered some
of tho most famous of the documents.
"Above all else, one of the great
est surprises Is that the earliest peo
ples, Instead of being barbarous or
uncultured, were civilized nnd pos
sessed a culture of a high order,'
writes Doctor Clny.

POSEN, THE EXPERIMENT
STATION FOR "KULTUR"
Tho province of Posen, formerly
part of Germany's eastern Prusslu
and one of the most important frng
incuts of old Poland, which has been
Incorporated In tho now war-born l'o
land, was tho unhappy experiment
station for sume of Prussia's most vlg
orous and futllo efforts to Germanize
an alien population.
Until the northern portion 6i Posen
fell to Prussia, after tho ilrst p.ir
tltion ot Poland in 1772, and the re
mainder was annexed to Prussia 21
years later, Posen's history was blend
ed with that of Poland. In connection
with the first partition, It will be re
called that Frederick the Great adopt
ed the Ingenious scheme of surround
Ing those parts of Poland ho desired
with a military force, on the pretevt
that he was seeking to check the
spread of a cattle disease.
After being bandied for a brief pi
rlod, Posen fell to Prussia again In
IS 15, and for more than half a cen
tury Germany paid little heed to It
After the division of tho vast estate
and other economic changes, Polls
middle classes In Posen began to pros
per, whereupon, toward the last quni
ter of the nineteenth century. Prussl
begun to take notice of Its provincial
"Topsy." Germans had been lmuil
grating there since the thirteenth cei
tury nnd tho newcomers, ut first wei
welcomed. Severance of Posen froi
Poland changed that feeling thornd
open friction was not generated tint
Prussia began her repressive men?
ures.
Polish nobles had kept alive 1
llsh traditions, but Prussia was mor
alarmed by the prosperity of the Pole
than by what, today, might be callc
the nobles' propaganda. So she s
about Germanizing Posen, both by col
onlzitlon and by compulsion, much a
sho attempted to do to tho French I
Alsace.
Pniss'a's first move was to mak
German the language of the schools.
Pollen were ordered to disperse meet
lugs where Polish wns spoken.
After 111 years that program failed
to make tpuch of n Prussian Impres
slon upon I'oseu. so a cammlHslou wu
set up. In 1881. to buy laud from
the Poles for German settlement. Hi
fore the failure of this policy wa
openly ndmltlPrt the orlglnnl appro
priation of 100.000,000 marks was sup
plcuuiited again and again until, In
yenrs. more thnn half of Posen hud
been bought for German colonists.
Still the Poles predominated. Morn
kept coming from Poland and opposi
tion to the German program was Inten-
tiled ns tho measures became har
sher.
Kvon Germany was scandalized
when, In 1002, It wns brought to light
In the Prusslnn parliament that pu
pils had been whipped by tho whole
sale for declining to say tho Lord
Prayer In German. But the opposl
tlon ot the grownups did not causo
the world-wide Interest aroused by
thu school children's strlko In 1000
when about 100,000 Polish pupils took
that means of protesting against be
ing beaten when they would not an
swer questions In German. Tho Prim
slnn government refused to uccedo to
tho request of the archbishop of Posen
that children be permitted to receive
religious Instruction In Polish. Par
ents who withdrew them, from school
were Imprisoned.
Efforts to absorb or crowd out the
Poles by German colonization hav
ing failed, a measure was passed for
the expropriation ot Polish land.
Further laws were enacted compel
ling wider uso of the German lan
guage. Then came the Kattowttz In
cident, In 1010, crowning n series of
petty persecutions which bordered on
the nbsurd, wherein a number of minor
olllcinls who had voted for Poles at a
municipal election were removed from
office.
Posen Is smaller, territorially, than
Maryland, but had half n million moro
population in 1010. About a million
Poles more than half tho total popu
lation In Posen were established
there before the World war. Posen
has mineral deposits of lignite nnd
salt. Much of Its land was tilled. Its
manufactured products, besides those
of Us breweries and distilleries, were
sugnr, cloth, tobnvco, bricks and ma
chinery. THE CZECHS
Hecent dispatches reporting attempt
ed uprisings among the radical ele
ment In Czechoslovakia, and state
ments thnt a stronger and stronger
enmity townrd the German Inhabit
ants Is being shown on all sides by
the Czechs and Slovaks, center Inter
est once more on this newly created
central European republic that was
carved after the wur from Germany
and Austria-Hungary. Tho following
description of the Czechs Is based on
a communication to the National Geo
graphic society from Prof, Ales
Hrdlckn.
A 1,500-year-long, llfe-nnd-denth
struggle with the German race which
surrounded them from tho north,
west nnd south, with a near-burial
within tho" Austrian empire for the
last three centuries, fulled to destroy
or brenk the spirit of the little nation
of Czechs or Bohemians.
They are the westernmost branch of
the Slavs, their nnmo being derived,
according to tradition, from that of a
noted ancestral chief. The term Bo
hemia wns applied to the country
probably during the IComnn times and
wns derived, like that of Bavaria,
from tho Boll, who for some time be
fore tho Christian era occupied or
claimed parts of these regions.
Nnture has favored old Bohemia, nn
Important part of Czechoslovakia,
perhaps more thnn any other part of
Europe. Its soil Is so fertllo and
climate so favorable that moro than
half of the country Is cultivated and
produces richly. In Its mountulns al
most every useful metal and mineral,
except salt, Is to be found. It is tho
geographical center of the European
continent, equally distant from tho
Baltic, Adriatic and North seas, and
though Inclosed by mountains, is so
easily accessible, because of tho val
leys of the Danube nnd the Elbe riv
ers, that It has served In history as
the avenue of ninny nrmles.
Besides Bohemia, the Czechs occupy
Moravia and adjacent territory In
Silesia, both formerly pnrts of Austria-Hungary.
The Slovaks, who
show merely dialectic differences from
the Czechs, extend from Moravia
eastward over most of what was for
merly nortllern Hungary.
The Czech Is kind and with a stock
of native humor. He Is musical, loves
songs, poetry, art, nature, fellowship,
the other sex. He Is an Intedt thinker
and restless seeker of truth, of learning,
hut no apt schemer. Ho Is ambitious
and covetous of freedom In the broad
est sense, but tendencies to domineer
ing, oppression, power by force over
others, ure foreign to his nature. Ho
ardently searches for God and Is in
clined to be deeply religious, but Is
Impatient of dogma, as of all other
undue restraint. He may be opinion
nted, stubborn, iiut Is happy to accept
facts and recognize' true superiority.
'He Is easily hurt and does not for
get the Injury; will light, hut Is not
lastingly revengeful or vicious. Ho
Is not cold, calculating, thln-llpped,
nor again as Inflammable as tho Polo
or the southern Slav, but Is sympa
thetic and full of trust and through
this often open to Imposition.
Ills endurance and bravery In wur
for a cause which ho approved were
proverbial, as was also his hospitality
In peace.
He Is often highly capable In lan
guages, science, literary and technical
education, and Is Inventive us well us
Industrial, hut not commercial ; Imag
inative, niilstlc, creative, rather than
frigidly practlenl. Inclined at times

of possessions, however, but of human
hnppluoss, and of tho freedom anil

own, but n'l people.
