DAYTON, Tenn. July 1s.-Just as
soon as Mr.. Bryan finishes up with all
this monkey business here in Dayton
he is going TO work up on his next
great adventure-the leading Of a
pilgrimage TO the Holy Land late in
the coming Winter.
This is to be genuine pilgrimaee ee,
says prospectus of the trip. Other
cruises are largely filled with people
who want to escape cold weather and
be amused meanwhile. Such tours
might not inaptly be characterized as
glorified bridge-whist parties MIR
Bryan's purpose is TO gather around
himself people who are genuinely in
terested in religion and who. there
fore, while enjoying to the fun the
wonderful travel experiences involved
would derive genuine inspiration
from a visit TO the land of the Book
and from Mr.. Bryan's Interpretation
of the Book while in the land.
Your imagination can readily visu-
alize and your judgment evaluate the
experience of listening to Mr.. Bryan
At the birthplace of the Prince OF
Peace, or on good Friday in the gar
den of Gethsemane; al Easter dawn
by the garden tomb. and on Easter
afternoon as he reviews the great
commission on the Mount of Olives
The plan is to reserve an entire
steamer. taking preliminary cruises
around the Mediterranean, spend two
weeks in Egypt-enough to visit
Cairo. Luxor. Valley of the Kings,

pathy with the spirit of a general
pilgrimage to the Holy Land 10 join
them in this unique and inspirational
experience. The tour will be a two
month visit between Mr. and Mrs.
Bryan and genial compa MONS. with
many the first and with some, per
haps, the last opportunity for such a
visit
1T is fitting climax 10 the career
OF MIR. Bryan that after his years of
strenuous devotion TO his country
and TO great moral causes he should
now lead the hearts of Christian peo-
pie personally to the Holy Land nd
share with them. both on the way
and at the sacred sites. his wide ex-
perience of life, the rIpened maturity
of his thoughts and the inspira ton Of
! his religious convictions.

desirable that they be sympar rhetic

OF the spiritual values involved.
