Djibouti is the terminus of the 500-mile railway that links the port with the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa. The railway is Ethiopia's only modern connection with the outside world.

Home of Coffee Although the Harar plants are descended from seed introduced from the Mocha district of Arabia, Ethiopia is the home of coffee. The tree was found originally by Arab travelers in the Ethiopian Province of Kafa, from which it took its name. Seed was taken from Kafa to Arabia, and thence came back to According to Arabs, the cultivation of coffee also spread to other parts of the world from Yemen in Southwestern Arabia.

In Kafa and adjoining parts of Southwestern Ethiopia may be seen today vast and virgin forests of coffee, which grow without cultivation or care and thousands of tons of the berries fall to the ground in waste each year. Addis Ababa, which, incidentally is the home Prince Desta Demtu, sprawls a forest of blue gum trees with the churchcrowned Mount Intotto, forming al lofty background. Although somewhat isolated, the city is steadily improving along modern lines. In 1929, a one-story frame building was replaced by a handsome stone railroad station. At this building the traveler gets a glimpse of the capital's permanent and transient population and some of Ethiopia's leading articles of trade which include bales of hides and skins, stacks of coffee bags, piles of elephant tusks and bales of American cotton piece goods which are a principal, import.

A ride of 20 minutes on mule or horseback or five minutes by motor takes the visitor to the main part of the city of the "New Flower." On one of the two principal elevations of the city is the market place. There once stood the great tree which served for generations as a gibbet. In bygone days it sometimes bore as many as seven criminals, generally thieves. On the site now is a fine equestrian statue of the late Emperor Menellk. Near the market are legations, consulates, hotels and many modern business buildings.

Make Up Imperial Palace The other elevation of Addis Ababa is crowned by the group of buildings which makes up the Imperial Palace. Ethiopia claims to be the oldest Christian sovereign state. Christianity was introduced about 330 A. D. There are about 15,000 Christian state churches in the empire.

A single church may have as many as 300 priests. After the profession of priest and soldier, farming is the principal occupation in Ethiopia.
