BLDG ' of Koad Congresses,-- BOYD PARK (Prepared by the National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.) Peru, which has been celebrating the hundredth anniversary of its independence from Spain, in the presence of commissioners officially representing the United States and other nations, is far enough out of the beaten path of most North Americans to be but vaguely known to them. It Is often thought of, no doubt, as a little republic clinging to the sides of tbe lofty Andes lest it slip and be lost in the Pacific. But in area and interest Peru is by no means negligible; and If it has failed to take an important place in world affairs, either commercial or political, it may well be that that fact is due, not to lack of size and resources and potential wealth and power, but rather to Immaturity. Peru has every climate under heaven, together with many of the products and conditions that go with them. .It has the sand dunes of the irriSahara; the fertile, gated valleys of California; the dry grazing lands of Australia; the productive mountain valleys and uplands of Kashmir; the bleak plateaus of Tibet; the snowy peaks of Switzerland; and the tropical jungles of Central Africa and Brazil. And off its Bhores, tropical In latitude but mild in temperature, the waters, so cold that often they are uncomfortable for bathing, are alive with the sea life of the sun-bathe- near-antarcti- c. Much of Peru is occupied by the towering Andes, with few passes less than 15,000 feet high, and with numerous peaks exceeding 21,000 feet These great ramparts are chiefly responsible for the diversity of Perus climatic conditions. They precipitate the moisture of the Atlantic winds and so create the tropical jungles that Stretch from their bases toward the Interior of the continent ; thrust slopes and plateaus up into the cool regions of the upper air; and cut off the Pacific coast section from the moistureladen winds, making much of it a desert. Coast Strip Has Rivers but No Rain. Although the strip of Peru between the Pacific and the western foothills of the Andes is devoid of rain and largely desert, many streams from the mountains break across this region to the sea, and the relatively narrow valleys, irrigated from their waters, the most fertile land of the country. Most of the degert land between the parallel rivers is not so from lack of fertility but because of the absence water. This is a most of unusual region lying within the tropics and adjoining the sea, where normally vegetable growth would be abundant If It could be viewed from a distance of a thousand miles tbrough a telescope It would probably appear much as the supposed canals of Mars have been described as appearing to some observers dark, roughly parallel lines of vegetation on a drab, verdureSome of the bench less background. lands have been reclaimed for considerable distances from the rivers, and projects have been considered to impound the waters that rush down from the melting Andean snows and bring under cultivation practically the whole coast region. Peru has an area of about 700,000 square miles and is therefore only slightly smaller than Mexico and well over a quarter the size of the United States exclusive of Alaska. If Peru could be laid down on the surface of the United States so that Its southernmost point coincided with the southernmost projection of Texas its northeastern corner would lie near Peoria, 111., and its northwestern extremity near Cheyenne, Wyo. The rough triangle would cover practically all of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, half of Nebraska, parts of Illinois, Missouri, Colorado, Iowa nnd South Dakota, and fragment's of New Mexico and con-atltu- life-givi- . imWjmJAVAVjmMmjAVAVAVAVAVMJJiJAI made of crepe and leaves to place.

The pieces Include a basket for the center of the table and in this a dish containing ferns' or natural flowers may be placed, candle holders, place cards and small containers for candles or nuts.

Ttara the Incas Flourished. as the United States was settled from the Atlantic coast and developed first Its coastal strip, leaving as an unknown region for generations the ' country to the west beyond Its mountains and deserts, so Peru has developed in the reverse direction.

Peru. in of coast land that European blood and culture Have made themselves most strongly felt. To the east rise the three towering ranges of the Andes, their slopes, peaks and intervening valleys and plateaus constituting the Sierra, the second of the three great geographic divisions of Peru. In this lofty region the Inca civilization held sway with a marvelously intricate but efficient governmental machine, before the Spanish came. Cuzco, the capital of the Inca empire, was situated In a fertile, protected valley of the Sierra region, and remains today one of the important Peruvian towns. Its population now, however, is only 15,000, h about that of the city when it was the Babylon of the western one-tent- hemisphere. In the almost inaccessible country to the northwest of Cuzco, and less than 50 miles distant, bidden away among the mountains, was Machu Picchu, the - secret city where the forerunners of the Incas, almost destroyed by barbarians, nursed their civilization and culture for centuries before going out into the valleys and founding their great empire. This old city, whose existence had been only a tradition for hundreds of years, was discovered in 1911 and uncovered in 1912 by expeditions of the National Geographic society and Yale university. The Sierra, or region of mountains, valleys and plateaus, is still the land of the heirs of the Incas. In this portion of Peru lives the largest single element in the population, the civilized Indians, descendants of the Incas. Though the population of Peru is not known accurately, it is estimated to be about 5,000,000. The Indians of the Sierra number close to 2,000,000.

West Temple Street Resources. In the Peruvian Sierra, too, are the Perus mineral mining developments. resources are almost inexhaustible. Gold and silver are the minerals on which most emphasis was placed by the Spaniards. Fortunes in both were removed from the country, but rich deposits remain. In recent years copper has led other minerals In the value of production. The copper mines at Cerre de Pasco are among the richest In the world. Almost every mineral substance known is believed to have been compounded in natures great Andean laboratory. The list of products from Peruvian mines covers much of the alphabet from antimony to vanadium. Of great importance are the petroleum wells of the northern coast, whose production is next in value to the countrys copper output. To the east of the Andes, cut off from the more developed portion of the country, lies the third geographical division, the region known as the Montana, Perus land of the future. This part of the republic Is made up of the wooded landward slopes of the Andes, grassy foothills, and the heavy jungles and forests that spread out to the east for a thousand miles or more along the broad valley of the Amazon and its tributaries. Because of the heavy rainfall the growth of vegetation in this part of Pern is believed to be as heavy as anywhere else in the world. Even at midday in some of the forests the light Is no brighter than , at twilight in open In a glade, with,, dense country. vegetation on all sides, one feels that he has been dropped down into the bottom of a deep green-linepit. The country on the eastern slopes of the Andes and on the foothills before the dense forest is reached has been settled very sparsely; but over thousands of square miles of the jungle the foot of civilized man has never trod. A few tribes of uncivilized Indians roam through these forest depths. Many large rivers rising on the eastern slopes of the Andes, flow across the Montana region of Peru, into Brazil. and finally find their way into the Atlantic 2,000 miles away, through the mighty Amazon. Ocean vessels ascend the Amazon to Iqultos, the metropolis of eastern Peru, nearly 200 miles within Peruvian territory; and by river boats the journey may be continued to within 200 miles of the Pacific. Along many of the rivers in eastern Peru are towns of some Importance, which are the outposts of Peruvian civilization, commerce and government in this Iso n lated empire. little-know- For a real The Reason Little Joe was at grandmother's house for dinner.Although fried chicken and many other mighty good things were on the table, Joe did not care to eat much.
