Near the Arctic Circle
Hofn Horna fjord, Iceland, Nv.
34, Village doctors In the L'nil'-J
States are cftn called upon to
make trips that occupy hours, or
even days, to the homes of their
patients, but in Iceland the district
physician, as a matter of routine,
often covers hundreds of miles by
horseback in the ordinary course of i
his duties.
The government physician of the!
Hornafjord district, stretching'
along the southern coastline, has
one of the most difficult territories
to cover in the kingdom. Ilis dis- :
trlct embraces more than 100
square miles, most of it in remote
valleys or along the narrow strip
of coast. It Is surrounded by huge
mountains, many of them active
volcanoes, scores of glaciers and
great snow-fields, and in the course
of each Inspection he must cross
more than 100 rivers, fw of which
are bridged at any time of the year.
In the spring these rivers, fed by
the big glaciers that -wind down
nearly every valley, become swol- i
len torrents, and It is often hours j
before the doctor can una a. saie
ford for his pony. The usual in
spection trip, made every few
weeks, requires, at least nine days,
and sometimes a fortnight
I'nevprcted Calls Received
In addition, although Iceland Is
an unusually healthy country with
few serious diseases, unexpected
calls are frequently made for the
physician, who must start out at
any hour of the day or night, usual
ly preceded by a guide sent by the
patient himself. Accidents fre
quently occur in the fish drying
sheds along the coast, or among
the herders In the mountain val
leys, and as the district physician
is the only one within hundreds of
miles, he must be ready on call at
any time. His trips are always
made on the stout Icelandic ponies,
capable of carrying large loads
over great distances without fatigue.
But few of the diseases known
in the cities of the world are met
with in this remote district of
south Iceland, shut off as it Is
from close contact even with othr
districts of the kingdom. No case
of venereal disease ever has been
reported at Hornafjord, and epi
demics are unknown. Bronchial
troubles, however, are rather fre
quent, and there have recently been
some cases of pulmonary tuberculosis.
A Brand New Train With Sleepers
and Dining Cars to Ikj Placed on
Cuban Lines for Visitors.
Havana, Nov. H. A new train
with dining car, bar, baths and
separate barber shops and smok
ing compartments for men and
women will be put Into operation
between Havana and Santiago de
Cuba In January, according to an
nouncement by R. L. Bra nncn, gen
eral agent of the Peninsular and
Occidental Steamship company.
Special coaches are being con
structed by the Pullman company
and the promoters claim it will be
the best appointed passenger train
in the world.
The new service is designed to
induce American tourists to visit
interior points instead of spending
all their time in Havana, as most
of them do now. and the project
is backed by several railroads in
the southeastern 1'nited States as
well as the steamship company and
the Cuban roads. The train will
leave Havana on Mondays and re
turn on Fridays, making a num
ber of stops cn route.

Special Assembly to Consider
Question at Geneva Meet
Geneva. N'ov. 14. A special as
sembly of the League of Nations Is
expected to be held at Geneva
some time this winter to vote in
Germany as a member of the
league. Basing their explanation on
the assumption that the German
negotiations with the various pow
ers will eventually succeed and that
Germany will one day actually for
ward her application for member
ship, league officials express the
League will probably arrange for
the special assembly.
It Is believed that if the German
negotiations have proceeded far
enough and the German application
is actually received In time, the
council will take some action at its
December meeting in Rome.
A special assembly for Germany
naturally cannot wait for the ar
rival of delegates from distant !
corners of the earth. Hence it Is!
planned that remote countries will !
designate their ambassadors or
ministers in Europe to represent
them at Geneva on this special oc
casion. Moreover, it is probable
that each country will send only
one representative, instead of the
three official delegates who under
the rules attend the annual as
semblies of the league, together
with their substitute delegates and
numerous experts.
As Germany has been told by al
lied powers that her entrance into
the league must be in accordance
with the covenant, without special
exemptions or privileges, It Is of in
terest to note that the question of
admission Is covered in Allele 1 of
the covenant. This says that any
fully self-governing state, dominion
or colony may become a member
if its admission Is agreed to by two
thirds of the assembly, provided
that It shall give effective guaran
tees of Its sincere intention to ob
serve its international obligations,
and shall accept ' such regulations
as may be prescribed by the league
in regard to its military, naval and
air forces and armaments. How
ever, It Is understood by everybody
that Germany will be given a per
manent seat on the council as being
one of the great world powers.
