Consequently, the monks 'and their great dogs, with time heavy on their hands, sought a new site for their services. They have found it, according to. "The Literary Di- gest," and are establishing a new 'monastery in Tibet in the Himalayan highlands. aR In 1930 two of their number, Canons Mellez and Coquos, after visiting obtaining permits from the grand lama, explored the country for a site 'that promised opportunity to carry out a mission similar to that of their monastery In the Alps. "They. found this site on the south- ern boundary of Tibet on the Sila Pass, 13789 feet above sea level and almost 6,000 feet higher than. thelr Swiss mountain hospice. Through this great break in the pase thousands of pilgrims from India and the Fir East to the Tibetan shfines, and' thousands of traders from Central Asia to the plains of India. Here hundreds perish from the snow and cold each 'winter, and here the monks found opportunity to continue in Asia the lifesaving service they have for so many centuries carried on in Europe. "There," says "The London Satur- day Review," "neither train nor motor will defend those who take the Si-La Pass from the fury of the elements, and the dogs, it only they can make in Tibet, bearing the flask of brandy on thelr collars, will find lost travel: ers to rescue." crn, TE, SEE HOPE FOR THE BEST Hope for the best, although life seems To fall far short of youthful dreams, Although fair plans have often been Destroyed by disappointment keen-- For only those can act their part Who keep a high, courageous heart. Hope for the best, although: tha worst bread eet you oh life's road at first, Al h your wounded feet have bled By reason of the road you tread-- For oft through trouble, care, and . strife : " One climbs the sunny helghts of life, Hope for the best, though sorTow's Je blight : Fall on your blossoms of delight, Though every wind of circumstance Seems but misfortune to enhance, Full sure that work and faith,-anon, Will find 'tis better farther on. -A.
