CEDARS OF LEBANON
The famous cedars of Lebanon were
;ahn•`ost wholly destroyed during the
world war, according to a writer in a
San Francisco periodical. The trees
date back to the earliest times. They
were historic during the wars of Sen-
nacherib, 608 years before Christ, as
described in the psalms of David.
Pliny, the Roman historian, ' claimed
their wood to be everlastin'gly dura-
ble, and the Arabs believed the trees
-to exist for all time. Timbers un-
earthed in the ruins of ancient Assy-
•ria have been found practically, un-
changed after 2,000 years and more.
