It is a miduntain eight miles long, about 1800 teet high at its {nland peak and 500 feet high “Where it juts into the ses, dividing the Plaing of Esdraelon, on the north, and Sharon, on the south.

The execellency of Carmel, which was a synonym for gll beauty:in the days of the Kingdom of lsrael, no longer exists as It did when Sglomon sang of it, for the forests have been destrdyed and new trees have not been planted. The heavily wooded slopes of the Carmel of old can be seen jonly in the imagihation, for today the greater part of the mrountain is a bare desolate expanse of rocks.

Carmel has been a sacred place from the earliest times, The most anclent records of the Hittite peoples indicate that Carmel was a mountain dedicpted to the wor- ship of the gods of that time. It come into Christian, Jewish and Mohammedan lore as the abiding place of the Prophets Elijah and Blisha. It was here that Obadiah hid “a 100 men of the Lord's prophets by fifty in‘a cave, and fed them with bread and water.” The sons of the Prophets dwelt on this mountain, in caves and In low dark tents, from the time of Elijah until their convemplon \to Christian- ity. in the third and fourth Ccenturies Greek hermits resorted in great numbers to Mount Carmel and took up thelr abode in ite caves They and thelr successors kept watch here before this great aiter until the Crusades when, in 110, the Latin Order of Carmelites was founded here and the Monastery was begun.

When Napoleon Bon- aparte beseiged Acre in 179 the monastery was utilized as & hospifal and upon the re- treat of the Frercfi the bulldings were de- stroyed by the Tutks. Early In the ninéteshth century a monk named Glan Battista came on a pllgrimage to Carmel 'as_an aect of penance. He made & vow to rebulld the Monastery and the present edifice is the result of the fourteen years of his trhvels and begging. But even he, when he reached Carmel, found an al- tar and an archway, and someone On the mountain to keep up, the worship of the God to whom it so long had been devoted. Carmel also was a consecrated apot in Asiatic mythology. In the time of Tacitus it was so holy that there was no temple or image there, but only an altar to all the| gods. It was then that the pagans unwit- tingly worshipped the Jewish God Jehovah, even as the Greeks of Athens later had an| altar to the Unknown God, Pliny saya that Carmel was the name both of the shrinc and the god who was worshipped there, That great historlan declares that the ora cle which promised the Roman emplre to Vespasian resounded from the summlt of this sacred mountain., From the cliff at the top of the moun- tain where the Monastery bulldings are set one looks down a sheer precipice 500 feet to the narrow plain, perhaps & half mile wide, which separates the foot of the moun- fain from the sea. The greater part of the mountain is owned and governed by the Carmelite monks and their boundary line is marked by a high ‘stone wall, effectu- ally keeping out off trespasders. Just out- side this wall, at the foot of the moéuntain, is the German colony. These thrifty people have established a prosperous frult-growing community and thelr village is in every respect a copy of a village of the Rhine A little further away to the north, but in easy walking distance, s the seaport of Halfa, an Increasingly important town. It has a population of about 15,000 people, and is by far the cleanest Turkish town in Palestine, It shines by contrast with the older and more historlc Aere, Which is only five miles away on the northern shore of the Bay of Haifa, & roadstead formed by the projection of the promon- tory of Carmel. Haifa I8 the Mediterranean terminus of the Hadjaz rallway which runs from Haifa, by way of the Bea of Galilee to Damascus. This Is the longest and most {mportant rallyway in the holy land, and it crosses the great German- Arablan rallway which penetrates the deserts of Moab to the eastward of the Jordan. The operation of this rallway was Interrupted by the disorders attend- ing the Young Turk reévolution, but it has been reopened under a new administra- tion which promises to make it a factor in the restoration of the prosperity of the country of Galllee. The native population of Halfa seems to have profited by the example of the thrifty German colonlsts who are thelr nelghbors. The town I8 blessed With many schools, Latin, Greek and Protestant, and even the Mohammedans have established an educa- tional system which goes beyond the mere recitation of th Koran. The natives are thrifty and industrious and thelr orange groves and vineyards show evidence of in- dustrious care, One may see in Haifa any day an exhi- bition of physical strength which rivals the ~pepformance of professional strong men in the west. Haifa s the port through which the weavers of Damascus import their cotton. - Practically all of this is Egyptian cotton and comes in the large Egyptian bales of 600 pounds each. The Arab longshoreman takes oné of these huge bales for his particular burden. Four men’ 1ift 1t to his back, and a rope which passes around the bale Is placed over his forehead, and he walks along ih a halt crouching attitude, from the dock to the warehouse, & distance of 100 yards, carry- |ing this burden of a quarter of a ton and supporting its welght by the band across uts forehead. It seems almost impossible that so many men could be found in any ne place possessed of such great strength, but it 18 nothing unusual to sée & proces- slon of & score of these longshoremen each carrying a bale of cotton. Haifa is built on & western mode], its streots are wide enough to admit the use of carriages, its shops have glass win- dows and some of them even have show- cases. ts police force Is gally uniformed in a costume which is a compromise be- tween Berlin and Constantnople. Once the city boasted a system of street light- ing and the lamp posts, with their sockets for ofl lamps, are still in evidence, but the moonless-night now vells the city of Haifa in darkness as deep as-ever hung over Hgypt. The town Is interesting because it is new, becauseé its business {s a combina- tion of marine shipping and rallway activity, because its religlous energy Is devoted to teaching the young and not to the exploitation of some sacred sfirine, and because it shows a promise of that physical regoneration which may he pos- sible in’ Palestine under the combined in- fluence of the Young Turks, the Zionist Jews and the Christian missionaries On the shores of this bay, set in the protecting arm of Carmel, many eltles and meny efvilizations have flourished Here was a seaport of the Hittites, here was & stronghold of Canaan overthrown by Joshua Here was the landing place of Alexander the Great, and here was buflt the great Greek city of Ptolemais. Here landed a portion of the Roman army which completed the destruction of the Hebrew nation. Here came Richard of the Lion Heart to support a Christiag dynasty, add here the Crusaders made their last“stand against the vietorious armies of the Cresent, Here struggled the contending forces of Arabs, Egyptians and Turks for mastery in the Syrian littoral. Here came Napoleon the Great, laying {n blood the foundatlons of his’ glory. And now comes the rallroad, the telegraph and the missionary, the three elements which destroy the anclent day and coms- pel acceptance of what ‘we are pleased to call modern elvilization. But over it still stands Carmel, un- changed and unchanging, the altar of, the Most High God, the sentinel Which watches over the Holy Land. BY PREDERIO J. HASKINS.
