Gentle, and Jerusalem, the most
sacred shrine of two of the worlds
greatest religions.
While the Turks, masters in Jeru-
salem for four hundred years, per-
mitted travellers to visit the Holy City,
and while thousands of Jewish and
Christian pilgrims passed within its
walls and even took up their abode
there, the MOslem rule was none too
satisfactory when measured by west
ern standards. Now that the World
war has rescued Jerusalem from the
Mohammedan ally of Germany and
has led to the placing of all Palestine
under the mandate of a western
power, the Jews who return TO the
land of their fathers and their
prophets. and the Christians who visit
the birthplace of their religion are as
sured of an atmosphere more to their
liking
Since the allies under Gen. Allenby
entered Jerusalem December IL, 1917,
after driving out the Turks, and since
the Supreme Council of the Allied
Powers placed the mandate for Pales-
tine in Great Britain, April %, 1920, a
system of western Jurisprudence has
grown up. police policies have been
modified, and steps have been taken
to improve sanitation and to plan the
future growth of the city along more
desirable lines in so far as arrange
ment and sanitation are concerned,
but so that the newer portions will
conform intellectually as nearly as
possible to the characteristic archi-
lecture OF the old city
The greatest physical boon to
Jerusalem resulting from the new dis
pensation is a generous supply of pure
water piped into the city by the
British within few months after the
expulsion of the Turks. which dis
placed the dirty. disease-breeding els
terms upon which the residents of the
city were previously dependent
1t was only necessary for the mod
ern engineers TO clean out an old
Roman tank near Bethlehem to lead
the waters of spring into it, and to
lay pipe line TO the city-and one
of Jerusalem's age-long needs was
oiled.
Not only does the control of q west
ern power in Palestine promise in gen.
eral better day for the Jews and
Christians who desire to visit the
country or live there, but the Situa-
tton is UNNECESSARILY bettered for the
Jews by the specific statement of the
Supreme Council of the Allied Pow
ers when the mandate was given to
Great Britain that their object was
that of the Balfour government: THE
establishment in Palestine of nation
ell home for the Jewish people
1t being clearly understood
that nothing shall be done which may
prejudice the existing civil and re-
llgious rights of existing non-Jewish

Christianity, Islam and Judaism have

as because the spot is revered by

traditions of three religions cluster.

into control of Jerusalem, Moham-
medan mosques were erected on the
site. The sacredness with which the
Moslems look upon the great rock is
indicated by their tradition that Mo-
manned decreed that "a prayer there
Is worth a thousand elsewhere"
One of the most important of the
purely Christian shriaes in Jerusalem
is the Church of the Holy Sepulcher,
which is a restoration of a church of
the same name erected by Constantine
the Great. first Christian emperor of
Rome. This church is supposed to
be erected over the sepulcher in which
the body of Jesus was laid after it
was taken from the cross. While his
torians are not entirely satisfied that

Madam Hen was very plump.

Even in the latter years of Turkish
rule, the Zion movement led thou
sands of Jews to Palestine. These
were virile people of the younger gen
eratiOns, not the aged and decrepit
Jews who in the early part of the past
century jOurneyed to the Holy Land
TO end their days there and were
maintained in idleness in the mean
tlme by pensions from Jews in other
lands. There are score of such

Before the great conflict the only rail
road entering Jerusalem was a mar

to Jaffa on cOasting steamer. In
the conquest of Palestine the British
forces constructed a new railway

mean coast, and travellers may now

newer Jerusalem that has sprung up
outside the walls-a city of religious
and social institutions, for the most
part, erected by orders and societies
of Christians and Jews from all
climeS. Many Of these buildings lie
to the west of the old city and are
visible from the station. Later the
traveller will learn, there are MANY
more buildings to the north and to
the northeast toward the Mount of
Olives. and fewer number to the
south and southeast.

The hanging gardens of Babylon

one would ordinarily interpret the
word hanging. They were simply high
