"EAST GAY, GLAD AND YOUNG"

rent of light and color, the setting OF
the marvellous drama, the mental, so

in its dying, if it dies, will take the
worlds hope with it.
For the East is the barrier set
against the materialism of the West,
writes l.. Adams Beck in Asia Maya

hope and her life at the foot of her
affairs. With the gods she is at home

the cup to the dregs and found it Bit
ter-Our women grow as hard as our
men; our very children are cynics.
But the East Is gay and glad and
young. Life has it's sorrows. but she
knows the wisdom Of sorrow. She
does not speak Of death-his truer
name is onward.
Sin is but phase in the march Of
development. And for dogma-the
East is lanient. She says with Bahram
Mira: truth is a bird that flies so
fast that the eye of men cannot follow
it, and so high that it is lost, to sight
in the skies. But now and then one
Of It's feathers falls, and when it
touches the earth it becomes such
prophet as Mahomet or Moses. No
man on earth has heard the voice of
that bird, nor shall he hear 1t before
he sits down beneath the lote tree in
paradise.
But all this is mystery to the many
who travel to see the beauty of the
East, and very often will you hear
the three daughters of the fool from
those who come from far to visit her.
For lne fool laughs at thing because
it is good and he laughs at thing be-
cause it is bad. And he laughs at
thing he cannot understand.

The Lame Girl and the Faith Healer

DENVER.-Mary Kinny, beautiful,
A4ame, wants to be healed, but the
miracle woman" Mrs. Aimee Semple
Mcpherson, cannot pray for her be-
cause Mary is ambitious to dance.
Born lame, Mary, who is cashier
in a downtown drug store, was left
an orphan three years ago and now
lives alone in a Denver hotel. Her
two sisters are busy in other cities,
winning fortunes on the stage. Mary
would give worlds to join them; she
is fond of music, and just crazy to
dance.
Since the first Denver case Of a
cripple who claimed to have been
cured by the prayers Of Mrs. Nc
Pherson became known, Mary has
been one Of the vast crowd that filled
the municipal auditorium.
"It's awful to think" she said. you
see, it's this way: Mrs. Mcpherson
says that tie persons who come to her
to be cured by faith must tear up the
iazz music. must give themselves up
TO a life with Christ, must study the
Bible, must do anything but go on the
stage. But you see why l want to be
cured I want to go on the stage.
