THE WALL OF WAILING
Tears of Joy Fell Upon Stones
When Jerusalem Was Liberated.

Strange sights must have been wit
messed within the last few days at
the wall Of wailing in Jersusalem, the
place OF lamentation where for gen.
erations Jews have congregated TO
bewail the sOrrows of their race.
Tears of Joy that Jerusalem is at
last freed from the Mohammedan
clutch must have fallen upon stones
that have been so often wet with
tears of grief.
Many visitors from America have
threaded their way through dark and
dirty alleys TO the small paved area
where the Jews OF Jeruslem have la
mented their heritage. The wall Is
said 10 be the ancient retaining wall
of Solomon's Temple. the nearest
place to the Holy of Holes that the
Mohammadan masters allowed the
Jews to approach.
Here every day. and especially on
Fridays, the mourners leaned against
the great stones OF the wall, wept
and chanted their litan:es. Their sin
certify was unques tionable. The stones
were literally wet with tears and there
