They believe that two catastrophes ‘will happen to them, each as bad as the other. One is that their beautiful lake will disappear forever, for they are not sure that it will ever fill up again. Al- ready the beauty of the “Gem of the Alban Mountains” has fled. Precipitous ‘wooded slopes, 330 feet high, used to ex- tend right down to the water's edge. Now a broad mudbank, left by the re- ceding waters, circles the lake. One slope, moreover, has been cut into to | make a road. { But even worse than that, think the Nemians, is the possible loss of their homes. The village is perched on a steep hill overlooking the lake. As the ‘water diminishes, the pressure of water egainst the sides of the hills diminishes, :Al)iod' and the land has a tendency to e.

Already cracks have begun to appear | In their houses, caused, they think, by shifting of the earth, which they trace to the transformation of the lake. ‘They fear that their homes may be pre- cipitated to the bottom of the slope. The palace of Princess Ruspoli—an | American lady who married an Italian | prince—has developed cracks, too. | The fishermen who used to get a gen- | erous haul every morning from the Iake | are shaking their fists in secret at the | pumping operations going on night and day. Their fishing is no longer good. and they believe the lake will ncver be kind to them again. i Source Unknown. ‘The question of where the water of ! Lake Nemi comes from has not been | settled. Either there are hidden springs | or the lake draws its sustenance from the watershed of the surrounding hills. | In any event, it will be a long time before it fills up again. | The Nemians look from their ruined lake to the galley partly “unwatered" | on the shore, and wonder whether the | price Fas not been too high.
