 ARCHED STREETS OF STEPS : JERUSALEM 



Few streets inside the city walls admit of vehicles, and those that do have been remodeled 

 in late j-ears. The slippery pavements are dangerous for shod animals, while the camels, 

 with their cushioned feet, move along with ease. Until a few years ago the streets were 

 unHghted and the law required individuals to carry lanterns after sundown, just as we require 

 automobile lamps to be lighted after dark.
