Hard Pressed to
Win Squash Match

Livingston Platt was unexpectedly
hard pressed to defeat John A. Victor
in preliminary round match of the
annual Yale Club Glass A squash tennis
tournament, which began yesterday.
Victor was granted the start of one
ace, and his clever playing forced the
issue to three games. 1t was only
Platt's steadiness at critical moments
that enabled him to be on the right
side of close score of 14-~17, 1913,

OF Local Interest
mo TOBACCO FIEND HAS ANY
RIGHT TO POLLUTE THE AIR
ANOTHER BREATHES"
&C. B. Wy

Zion people who have uncompromisingly
fought against the use of tobacco within
the limits of the city which they established
and built as a church home, are not alone
in their contention that no tobacco smoker
has any right selfshly to pollute the air
another breathes, and that this infringe
ment upon the rights of persons, who crave
the pure atmosphere which God intended
for them, should be forbidden by law
The following extract is taken from an
article which appeared in the Literary
Digest of March Is:
Prof. F. w. Roman, author of the book
let, "Nicotin Next" is quoted as saying that
''the evils of tobacco are greater than those
of liquor" The Washington Post takes
pains to caution its readers in particular not
to laugh at the anticigaret movement for
''anticigaret leagues have been formed in
several States, among them Ohio, and the
number is growing" Anticigaret laws in
some Western States have, it has been ad-
mitted, failed of enforcement. The Roches-
ter Herald quotes feminine campaigner
against the tobacco habit as saying "the fight
against the cigaret will be harder than that
against gambling, swearing, and other evils,
because many women as well as men indulge
in cigarets." But past failures and the new
additions to the ranks of the smokers have
only stirred up the foes of tobacco to greater
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1919-03-22

zeal. The Deseret Ne7oS, speaking for the
dominant religious body in Utah, praises
Colorado Presbyterians for declaring for
the national prohibition of cigarets and pre-
diets, "in view of the success of the great
fight against the liquor traffic, that the same
measure of success against the desplcable
and deadly cigaret will eventually be chron-
icled." Antitobacco workers have been es
pecially active in Indiana, where a bill has
been introduced in the legislature to make
any tobacco-user ineligible to public office.
One member of this legislature has voiced
his sentiment in speech quoted in the daily
papers:
Smoking in all public places, including de-
pots, all places where people have to go to
conduct business, as stores, barbershops,
and offices, and in the streets where people
have to pass, should be absolutely prohibi-
ted; not merely to the extent of imposing a
little fine, in which case the State becomes a
partner in the wrong, but by imprisonment
at hard labor, that will really make, the law
effective A cigaret fend, cigar fend,
nor pipe fend, neither has any moral or
sanitary right to put himself in position
where people have to come into his presence
to do business No tobacco fend has any
right to pollute the air another breathes.
This savage filth must cease in our boasted
civilization"
A New Jersey organ of the liquor trade
has quoted few of the most striking argu-
ments of antitobacco campaigners as fol
lows
Zone million four hundred and fifty thou
sand acres of good, productive land will
this year be wasted in growing tobacco un-
less you prevent it.
"The land could supply every grain need
of our nation and its allies. The labor
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1919-03-22

could supply every labor shortage in Amer
ica"
Tobacco lessons mental efficiency by over
10 per cent"
1T causes deafness, blindness, cancer,
tuberculosis, insanity, apoplexy, dyspepsia,
hardening of the arteries, and heart dis
ease"
1T impoverishes men,"
1T lowers the working power of the hui
man muscle by a large percentage"
1t causes large percentage of Our de-
strhctive fires"
Infants in cradles have been killed by
the tobacco smoke of their fathers"
Congress has voted to prohibit 3 per
cent beer. Why not prohibit tobacco?"
| In pamphlet issued in connection with
the campaign of the Non Smokers Protec-
tive League, DR.. Charles G. Pease has de-
| clared that there will be an element of
defeat in Our victory over Germany IF
those who are fighting for the liberty Of the
race are themselves enslaved to the tobacco
vice DR.. Romans book, "Nicotin Next"
which has been taken up as a textbook for
the National Woman's Temperance Union,
calls attention to the waste of land in the
production of tobacco, the injury to the
health of tobacco-workers, the destruction
of property by fires started by smokers, in
| furious physical and spiritual effects, of
tobacco; and he asserts that the immensely
increased use of tobacco in the Army and
its acceptance as a ration by the War De-
partment are due, at least in part, to a great
campaign by the tobacco interests Much
stress is laid on the necessity for a campaign
of education about tobacco which is remin-
iscent of the "moral-suasion" period in the
temperance movement. Wide publicity has
been given to the conclusions of certain Y.
NJ 4. A. investigators whose experiments
have led them to conclude that smoking
raises the heart-rate and the blood d-pressure
markedly delays the return Of the heart-rate
to normal after exercise, and impairs neuro-
muscular control"
One of the most notable admissions of
the seriousness of the movement against
tobacco comes from Tobacco, a leading
organ of the trade. The editor of this paper
declares that needless smokers and careless
spitters'' are giving valuable aid to "the
antinicotin shouters." He continues:
The smoker who recklessly tosses a
lighted clgar-butt or cigaret-stub into place
Where 1t might cause fre, the untldy chew
er who bespatter5 floor with saliva and
tobacco juice - fellows of that sort, how
ever unwittingly, are constant stimulators
OF antl-tobacco agitation.
"The man who defantly smokes in places
where smoking is forbidden, the smoker is
utterly rude, a person showing entire disre-
gard for the feelings of others, may help
opposition to tobacco; an ill 1-judged action
of user of the weed could be more inuri-
Gus than any speech riterating the antipa-
thies of an anti
"However safe from possible prohibition
the tobacco industry may deem itself, re-
cent events make it prudent to take certain
things into consideration
Failure to exercise restraint caused the
liquor business to be unpopular Objection
able things done by individuals under the
influence of liquor were the chief argu-
ments for the abolition of the liquor traffic.

ADDITIONAL WATER SUPPLY
PROVIDED FOR ZION HOME

During the last few months, every room
and apartment in Zion Home has been oc-
cupied This includes not only the regular
rooms, but many rooms and apartments
which have been constructed in the building.
Necessarily, the demand on the water
supply has been very great. A pump at
tached to the o-inch pipe well in the court
has been kept going continually, day and
night, except when stopped for repairs.
Therefore, an additional water supply is
now being provided by installing extensive
well pumping machinery on. the well east
of Zion Home, which, together with the
court well, will abundantly provide for all
needs.
A cement well-house is being construc-
ted to protect the pump and the horse
power motor.

ADDITIONAL BAPTISTRY CON-
STRUCTED IN SHILOH TAB
ERNACLE

In order to accommodate visitors to Zion
who can remain only for short time and
who desire to be baptized by Triune Inn
mersion while here, an additional baptistry
has been constructed in Shiloh Tabernacle
in the Prayer Room.
This baptistry is located Immediately in
front of the platform. 1t is feet in length,
5 feet wide and 40 inches deep, and is
finished in white cement and white sand,
making very beautiful and attractive
baptistry.
The water is driven through the boiler
in the heating plant of the building by means
Of pressure tank and from thence into the
baptistry 1t can thus be heated to any
temperature desired in a few minutes time.
The atmosphere in the Prayer Room is
always warm and comfortable
Persons may now be baptized by giving
two hours notice to Apostle Moot, who is
in charge of baptismal services held in Zion
at headquarters.

A VERY INTERESTING LETTER

Mr. and Mrs. Herman Friedel, of 27O7
Bethel boulevard, recently read in GER
tain paper about an old lady in Wisconsin
who had reached her Tooth birthday (being
just little younger than Mother King)
and who had been miraculously healed of
cancer, in answer to prayer. The article
| went on to say that up to the time the
cancer appeared, few years before, she
had never been i'll in her life.
The paper spoke of her as being constant
| ly engaged in hard work Of some kind, of
attending picnics band concerts and other
public events, and Of keeping up her interest
in life much better than many people score
of years younger.
The article was so interesting that Mrs
Friedel Immediately sent her Leaves of
Healing containing Mother Kings testimo-
ny, the paper containing the Friede1 family
testimony, and others. A few days ago, a
reply came from the old 1ady's daughter,
who, to Mrs Friedel's great surprise, stated
that she had belonged to Zion, years ago.
We will let her tell her own story:
| Tn the mail today was package address
ed to my mother Since her Tooth birthday
she has received several beautiful letters
from strangers, and last week one with an
Adventist tract telling us that the end of the
world would come in 1888, and it was prin-
ted in 1881 So when I saw the bundle of
papers, [ said, "Some signs of the times"
How agreeably I was surprized when I
opened it and the dear old familiar face of
Leaves of Healing greeted us
eve are now members of what is called
a Baptist Church, but it has been closed for
nearlv year and the members are not 1iv-
ing Christian lives.
IT was ordained deaconess in Zion by
DR.. Dowie, in 1904. I had charge of the
branch at this place for two years. An
elder came once each month for nine months
in succession; he did Restoration Work and
visited the saloons, distributing literature
can truly say those days were the best
years of my life.
Il am not Baptist, but it appeared best
that we join some church, and there are no
Zion people around u.s.,
So, do you wonder I was glad? How
| good the salutation, "Peace to thee" looks

LOCAL ITEMS
&C. B. W.

A Zion family, which has been contin-
ually sending out Leaves of Healing over
the country, is just in receipt Of the fol-
lowing letter from a lady: 81 wish to
thank you very sincerely for the literature
you sent me- You do not realize how I
enjoy reading it, as it just corresponds
with my ideas [ have tried, in vain, to
convince the people Of this town that the
Scripture is being fulfilled; and when |
read the sermons by Wilbur Glenn Voliva,
the articles by Willis F. Jordan and others,
appearing in Leaves of Healing, come to
the conclusion that this whole town is fast
asleep, as | have never yet found one per-
son that did not scoff at the truth or at the
statement that the Coming Of Our Lord is
near However, they are never warned
by their ministers along that line; but
person would expect that people who
study the Bible could discern this fact.
They seem to be so blind that they cannot
see or understand. 1t is just as Peter tells
us it will be towards the End scoffers
walking after their own lust [ often
| wish [ were in Zion where I could hear
something good. We belong to the Pres
| byterian Church here, and we have what
is considered a wonderful preacher. He is
good tallzer and all that, but say again
this town-churches and all-is dead [
wish I could talk personally with you.''
A party Of nine persons arrived in Zion
this week from Webb, Saskatchewan, Can
ada, to make this their home. The party
consists of the parents of Mr.. Patrick Nc
| Intosh, of Zion Home-Mr. and Mrs. Josias
Mcintosh; also his brother-in-law, Mr..
Thomas Wood, and wife, with four chill
dren. MIR. William Pratt accompanied the
party. They are locating in the property
at 2106 Emmaus avenue. This makes
twenty four people, in all, who have come
from that locality in Saskatchewan within
the past two years, and others expect to
arrive soon. This is the result of the faith
full work Of one mani. G.. Senander-in
spreading Zion literature for years through
that section, when he could see no appar-
ent results, and who stood faithfully for
Zion principles in the midst Of persecution.
At last, Mr.. Mcintosh became converted
through reading the Leaves of Healing,
and since then the work has rapidly spread
and is continuing to spread.
Mrs. Nellie A. Basinger, Of 3115 Enoch
avenue, submits the following poultry rec
ord: during December and January, the
two coldest months, she gathered, from
nine pullets and one hen, $50 eggs; and
since then they have done much better
At present she is gathering from to 9
eggs per day. The pullets are cross be-
tween thoroughbred S. c. White Leghorns
and thoroughbred Rhode Island Reds, prov
ing to be very strong and hardy birds.
They were not especially well housed dur
