Deserts are not nil barren wastes, writes Ameen Rlrhanl In Asia magazine. Nor are they all empty spaces. Some are inhabited by familiar and unfamiliar creatures, and others are the haunts of an Influential but Invisible race. To the Arub there are communities of spirits In the desert spirits, good and evil, to comfort or distress, to rescue or annihilate. That is why, In his travels, he Is a man of many moods, gny, pious, poetic, nnec-dota-l, silent. That Is why he sings, prays, recites poetry, tells of his exploits or makes Ms way through s vast maze of uncertainties In bushed apprehension. Nothing Is more reassuring and more Impressive, more fertile of than prayer In the desert And nothing is more adequate In prayer than the closing Words of the opening chapter of the Koran, which are always on the tongue and in heart of every Arab: "Lead us In the right path, not the path of those who go astray." Indeed, no damnation Is surer and swifter in action than that of going astray in the desert. A new story Flat-bus- h t, Airplane Qub News ss chi-acte- r, avery anwn nu a uuuie, an influence of Its own. Some are Inviting, some are withholding, others are forbidding; some have the power to charm, some to tantalize, others to destroy. The Arab cnlls them by name, now tenderly, now gruffly. In soothing or commanding accents. He is tbelr master, their familiar and their slave. He apostrophizes them ss he does his camel or bis horse. The great deserts of Arabia are the Dahna, with Its level white sands; the Nufouds, with their red dunes; the various flat, gritty Ilnmads; the arid, volcanic Uarrat Khnlbar and that vast, little known stretch of sands In the south which Is called Rub' ul Khali, or the "Vacant Quarter.'' No one In Arabia could tell me whnt the name "Dahna" Implies or how It originated. Even Arab authors are In confusion about It. The Dahna nieunders like a river through the heart of Arabia, between oases that are here and there within view of each other, between arid plains snd green pastures, snd not far In places from some of the principal cities of NeJd. In Its serpentining course It Is about TOO miles long, connecting the Vacant Quarter In the south with the Great Nnfoud In the northwest. It is no more than 100 miles across In the widest places, and It narrows down In nthera to it fpw mllnn. T. -' ; Third Presbyterian Church Notes i , bug-'g- y sixty-seve- f-- V). . SPACES I The Arab fears the Dahna, thougn there Is hardly a spot In It which Is unknown to him. In the first place. It is to him the haunt of the Jinn. Some of the Jinn may be of the beneficent kind, may be Moslems. Nevertheless, he fears them, because they are not always recognizable at first sight. In the second place, the trails of the Dahna are sometimes concealed, covered with sand. A gust of the simoon ran hide the trail In n few hours. Indeed, the wind and the Jinn are alike In their treachery. There Is s third reason for the Arab's fear; for, with the trail hidden, he may go lengthwise through Hie Dahna and never come to its end. His supply of water will give out; ami both he and bis stock, If he happens to have a flock of sheep or a herd of camels with him, will perish of thirst. That Is why this desert is seldom crossed without a guide. Like the Dahna the Nufouds ("nufoud" is plural of nafd, meaning heap) are sand deserts, and there are more of Ihein than any European has ever seen. I, myself, bare traveled through seven Nufoud, crossing the smallest In three hours snd the blggesMn fine day. They are all known by their names to the Arabs of central Arabia, arid none of them is feared. Yet the crossing, on account of the dune, which rise lu places to a height of 8K) feet, Is not so easy as it is in the Dahna. w 9 All Sugarhouse to Attend Tollies'' HIGHLAND PARK P.-A. NOTES T.
