Irrigation Scheme (to` Bèvire." ** Land of Milk and Honey. **

A scheme for the irrigation of the Plain of Jordan between the Lake of Genouareth and the Dead- Sen was outlined by Mr. Albert Hlorth to members of the Victoria Institute, at Central Buildings, Westminster, recently.

Wide areas, said Mr. Hiorth, ware covered with fartile soil, anitable for cultivation; irrigation only was needed in those districts, which in Joshua's time.“flowed with milk and honey.”

The irrigation schame' was‹ tö- build osnala on both sides of the River Jordan and parallal with ́ it. Throughout their length the canals would be furnished with suitable out leta for the distribu- tion of water over the plains eloping towards the River Jardan.

As a source of energy, thare is planned a hydro-electric plant on the western shore of the Dead Sea, which would receive ita energy from the Mediterraneant through a tunnel under Jerusalem,

The scheme, added the lecturer, WES far from new-it Tu probably some 2,000 to 3,000 years old but its realisation had naither been demanded, nor bad it been feasible till just now.

In Warwickshire villages and in Birmingham & curious Easter ceremony was performed (szys Lady Kinloch-Cooke in the Em- pire Beriew called "clipping the churches The children of the different charity schools in the neighbourhood placed themselves in a single row with their backs to the churches, and joined handa till the chain completely surround- ad the edifice. As soon as the hand of the last. of the train had grasped that of the first the party broke up and walked in procession to another". repeated.
