TOPALE:STINI:
Former BarabOO Pas
tor Gives Address at
the Baptist Church
Sunday Night

On Sunday night at a union
meeting at the Baptist church,
Rev. H. H. Savage of Pontiac,
Michigan, formerly a Baraboo pas
tor, told of his trip to Palestine,
Many gathered to hear the former
Baptist minister speak.
The journey was from New York
to the Azores, Portugal, Algiers,
Ccnstantinople and Palestine Dur
ing the last portion of the boat
trip 900 Russian Jews were aboard
going to new home in the Bible
land
Bartering is universal in that
portion Of the country, even to
the purchase Of a dish Of ice
cream. Ten per cent is added to
the bill as a tip for the service.
Land of Evil doors
Rev. Savage said all that region
was a land Of evil odors. Dirt is
everywhere in Palestine. Screens
are unknown and flies thrive by
the million. The food in the
shops Is unprotected and this
makes it anything but appetizing.
The minister lost twenty pounds
on account Of not being able to
eat as he should.
Most children have sore eyes
and the flies make life miserable
for them.
Sacred Places ObIiterated
Palestine has been rayaged
many times since Bible days and
the exact locations of sacred
scenes have been obiterated.
This does not trouble the guides
"a whit, however. They lead the
tourists into dark corners and un-
ravel a story which never hap
Rened there; sometimes most rid
iculous.
Nazareth is place which
seems to have a population of a.
bout 500 but has 5000. All live
in small quarters with no con
Yeniences. The people are poor.
queer Sights Seen
At one place Mr.. Savage saw a
shepherd leading his flock of
goats, not driving them as he
would in this country. In other
places he saw grain being cut
with sickle and threshing done
on an earthen cloor. a sledge and
oxen being used. Occasionally a
woman was assisting in pulling
he rude continuance for thresh-
ing the grain. There is no rain
there from the first of March
until the first of November SO
there is no danger of the process
being interrupted. But little mod
Narn machinery was seen.
The Jews going into Palestine do
not enter the old villages but es-
tablish new towns.
Plunge Into the Dead Sea
one cannot drown in the Dead
Sea on account Of the salt, there
being about Is per cent Of solid
matter in the solution. One can
wade up to his waist but the body
will not go down any further
Golgotha is now an orthodox
Mohammedan cemetery.
Mrs. Savage accompanied Rev.
Savage to Baraboo

tiers. The badger was captured
by the dogs and Dit was not nee
essary to shoot it. The plucky
animal put up a fight that lasted
about an hour but could not get
away from the hounds
Three animals in one night is
a good bag and is evidence that
the woods of Sank county still
hold game for the hunters and all
it takes to get them is a little per
severance and the patience to
wait it out in the darkness Of the
woods.

There's very little excitement to formal clothes these days, but sport togs provide the thrills and keep the fashion interest famed.
 There's always some new idea in hats some tricky way of wearing the scarf or combining the access sories. or new color combination 10 furnish q legitimate excuse for buying something new.
 "The velour hat is the fad of the momcnt,' according 10 Henri Ben- del, New York fashion authority. These come in very soft as well as very brilliant colors and give chic touch to the all-white costume as well as 10 those that match in color.
 Deep rose, and the pansy shades and the now yolloW-g greens arc par tiCularly lovely in velour, and they need only q band of corded ribbon to consider themselves amply trim med. The crown should fit the head perfectly ami be very doop, and the brim rolled 10 suit the wcarer."

LOVE CULT FAILS
 IN WEDDING TRIAL
Barbara Vanderbilt Hatch Plans
 to Get Divorce

Nyaek, N. r., Aug, 3--The Tan trtk love match that startled society a year ago when the former Mrs. Barbara Hatch, daughter of the Dowager Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, welded Winfield J. Nichols, is be- lieved to be completely sundered with the report from Paris that the bride Is there suing for divorce.
 Both Nichols and his wife are ardent disciples of Pierre A. Bernard Omnipotent Dom of the Tantrik Love cult at Nyack. Last January Mrs. Nichols became the mother of twins. a boy and girl, who are be- ing nurtured under the Tantrik en- vlronment of Bernard's Clarkstown Country club.
 The couple separated a short time after their marriage, she taking up her residence with the children at the club, while Nichols moved into a rckety studio in New York.
 The usual order of procedude is reversed In this marital split. It is reported that instead of the husband making a financial settlement upon the wife, in this instance 1t Is the bride who has arranged settlement on her husband.
 Mrs. Nichols has been in Paris for about a month and plans to return to Bernard's institution. of which her mother and her sister. Lady Paul Dukes, are charter members, as soon as the legal formalities have been complied with.

 "On the continent 1t is different, the foreign women prefer the very colorful costume. At the French watering places you see the most brilliant reds, greens and purples.

FORD ADVOCATES
 CHURCH DANCING
Wants Steps Taught There, He
 Declares

Detroit, Aug. 3-"Eyery church in the United States should provide a hall with q good floor and music for old-fashioned dancing which should be heartily encouraged by all religious, moral and educational leaders of the country" Henry Ford declared today.
 "I believe the Bible saying that there is a time to dance Is true in the lives of people of all ages" Mir. Ford continued. "The old dances are suited to all ages and any one wonld lind them q refreshing and rcsttul recreation.
 I've have seen people Of all ages take hold of these dances with the same enthusiasm" said Mir. Ford "YounEer people, who do not know these dances, can learn them and then they demand them. Then there are in the country thousands of peo- ple, actually thousands and thous- ands who used to dance, but stop ped when the so-Called modern dances came in. They have not had much opportunity 10 dance since. The dances we have given, not only here but at the Wayside Inn and at Harbor Beach and elsewhere, have brought back some of these older people to the floor, and 1t has done them lots of good.
 "rhe churches have really a spe- cial responsibility here. Dancing or iginated as religious ceremony. Re- ligious dances are mentioned in the Bible. Young people are sure to dance. because dancing Is an instinct with us. Everybody who is keeping time to music with his hands or feet is really dancing, whether he calls 1t that or not.
 "If the young people are sure to dance. the young people of the church. why should not the church set the standard for ther?
 "Wc have to face this fact that If the young folks cannot dance in church halls they will dance in other halls, And if they dance In church halls they ought to have B sensible land wholesome view of religion
