Arabs Of the Desert Place Implicit
Faith in the Teachings Of Their
Prophet mahomet.

An Arab of the desert, one of the Be
dawi. What are these Arabs Of the
desert7 Today they look across the
sands upon their droves OF sheep and
camels and peaceful are their nights.
But in the olden days, the days of
which they dream and chant their
songs rs they lie before their tents at
nightfall. they were not men of pas
toral tasks, but they looked upon their
iances brilliant In the sunlight, horses
charging into battle. men with keen
dark faces filed with lust for blood
and booty. They hear their women
close behind them, women like these
sitting now beside me. shrieking blame
or telling them that death upon the
battlefield was only opening wide for
them the gates Of paradise. They bore
their flag around the eastern world,
their flag that is founded on a book.
The men Of other nations have many
books. but the Beduin Of the desert.
the follower Of the prophet, has but
one, eternal, u%ncreated. written In the
language they will hear in paradise.
Within their book, the Koran, is the
wisdom Of the ages, and no q can
add TO II nor make its teachings less
divine. II came from Allah's lips
straight TO the great Mohammed. and
holds for all true followers the sum
and substance of Gods laws to men.
That book has conquered half the
world, and the Bedawi believe that the
time is coming when the men Of Islam
shall possess the earth as their in
heritance from God on high. II is writ
ten on their foreheads. These Arabs
Of the desert. these keen-eyed men sit
ting so quietly in the white moonlight
are proud with a pride we do not un-
derstand. They are proud Of their
lineage. Of the purity OF their blood, Of
their unbroken traditions. They are
the real Adventures Of tie world, and
their nervous. high-strung, daring
characteristics have become the per-
manent marks Of their race. One
finds them ready TO do and dare every
thing that appeals TO their imagina-
ton A cause must appeal to their
emotions-must appeal to the heart,
not the head-those same riotous emo
tons which never produce. but al
