The Bernese Oberland is situated in the heart of Switzerland. It is region famed for its clear, pure air, and for the utter grandeur of its mountain scenery. The majestic proportions of such of its peaks as the Jungfrau are, of course, too familiar to need citing as examples. One thinks of the Alps at best as bleak inhospitable affairs, among which men live only on sufferance. In connection with them, we picture the arduous endeavors of mountain climbing expeditions, great crevasses in the ice and frenzied hands clutching at a breaking rope. It is utterly impossible to describe the scenery witnessed from the moving cars. The picture concludes with an exhibition of cross-country skiing by two expert English amateurs. Captain and Mrs. Hinkston. The ski is used at present by the armies of several nations as a means of winter travel. Its efficiency in rough country is adequately proved in this film, for the expert that is.
