WORLD WILL GO NAKED
WHEN IT IS EDUCATED
This is Startling Declaration of Leader
of kosmanites. New Religious
Cult, Says 1t Is Inevitable.
BY Robert Welles Richie.

London. July 25.--The whole
world will go naked as soon as it is
properly educated" by the BOSNIAN
ties, Il religious cult founded by .. X
Newberry of Rochester. N. Y, fifteen
years ago, according to the British
branch of the society.
Following the revelation by news
paper that the Plymouth colony of
kosmanites already was allowing
boys and girls up to fifteen years OF
age to run naked. Universal Service
investigated the situation.
The correspondent found a barn
like structure resembling an army
nut, hidden away in a small woods
near the suburb of BALKAN, over
grown with weeds and bushes. with
plenty of vegetables all around. This
nut Is used as tabernacle. The Kos
NANTES believe in going to church
naked. Balhamites hardly know OF
the existence of the strange creed in
their midst. They thought the hut
deserted and were surprised to learn
the congregation" numbered more
than 200.
The London kosmanites are bitter
against their Plymouth brethren, call
ing them "secessionists" who have no
connection with the mother church"
Brother II. t. Mercer leader of the
faithful, who is prison warden,
said Indignantly.
Plymouth acted prematurely The
world Is not ready vet for nakedness.
But our idea is right and our cause is
good. The whole world will adopt il
as soon as it embraces the teachings
of the kosman church.
We believe in living next to ma
ture. We are vegetarians and pro-
hibitionists, though l believe some
mem bers of my congregation are not
teetotalers.
| To display the naked beauty OF
| the human body is all right. 1t gives
| the sun chance to work benefcially
on the body, too. Adoption of our
creed by the world will come sure as
fate. and shame will disappear
The authorities did not prosecute
the Plymouth cult for the youths
nakedness but imposed a fine on the
offenders because the children were
not registered.
