Vast Solid Dome
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wlrel

ZION, H.. Feb. 2-Wilbur Glen
Voliva, successor Of John Alexander
Dowie as overseer of Zion and head
Of the Christian Apostolic church.
has completed the fixing Of dimen-
sjons of his flat world, existence OF
which is now taught in the Zion
schools -
According to Mr.. Voliva's latest
announcement, the sky is vast
dome Of solid material in which the
sun. moon and stars are hung ike
chandeliers. The edges of the dome,
no said. rest on wall of ice which
surrounds the flat world to keep fool
hardy mariners from tumbllng over
the edge. - 40
@That is the plain teaching OF the
whole word of God" he said, mat
the heaven, the dome, the vault, IKE
q tent. is a solid structure over the
aarth and all the lights are set with
in the armament. Ezekiel says 'the t
tbrone of God is above the vault.
The firmament above our heads is a
soIid structure, and the stars are
noints of light, that is all. They are are
~ worlds. they are not suns. So
noiled science is a lot of silly rot and
y, il so-called medical science, and

WORK OF REHABILITATION

There are more than 130,000 stu dents enrolled under the rehabiEta- tion division of the United Stetes Veterans bureau, which makes it the largest trades and industrial school in the world. The stu- dents are scattered all over the country and are being trained in the leading colleges, commercial and technical schools, as well as on farms, in shops and in businer6 establishments, and almost every vocation is included in the prepara- tory work which they are doing. Each man is taking the course in which his particular disability will mot prove handicap, or will incon. yenience him in the least. It Is the general impression that most of the men taking this rehabilitation train. ing have suffered the loss of arms ol. legs, but as matter of fact only a small percentage are amputation cases.

GERMAN TENNIS LEADERS
 HOPE TO PLAY IN ASIE

Berlin, Dec. 26.-Lawn tennis leaders in Germany are holding out to their fol- towers the hope that German represent ltives will again be allowed to enter ti- tular contests in the United States next year. They state that the American ter- nIs authorities regarded the past sea, ion as too soon after the war to resume these relations, but that among former neutral countries there is an increasing lesire for German competition.
 International matches with Spain, Holland, Denmark and Sweden were re- vived to a large extent during the last year, The results have moved the Meth srlandish Lawn Tennis Association of Holland to approach sports circles in the sntente countries with view to pittins competitors from the latter against Ger mans on neutral courts.
 In the wake of several important matches played by Germans in Spain the past few months, Nuremburg aggrega- lion has now scheduled Spanish tour for January. Contests will begin at Barce- Iona Jan. 6, to be followed by matches n Madrid, Seville Bilbao and Santander.
