WHERE SEA STILL
HAS ROMANCE

Nevertheless, If you can get
away, go to sea. And If you would
really love the sea-go to the
South Pacific.
The writer has spent many
months on its azure water, and
has found no voyage long enough.
There Is no sea so gentle when it
is at peace, none so awe-inspiring
when hurricane or typhoon RACES.
Mostly, it is a friendly sea-,
stirred only by the steady breath
of the tepid Trades. The long,
slow swells seem the pulses of an
infinite rhythm; the blue would
pale the Mediterranean, and the
sweep Of the frigate bird, the
flash of the flying fish and the
spout of an occasional whale
furnish all the variety the scenery
needs.
In the far South Seas, tiny coral
islets may fringe the horizon with
their cocoanut-fronds, or an occa-
sional black volcanic peak rise
abruptly from the sea.
The red ball of the sun plunges
at evening into it's bath Of molten
gold, and by night unfamiliar con-
stellations dot the purple sky.
Regardless of where you r 60
ing-and every Pacific port is a
gateway Of romance-just the CO.
ing. over that sea of seas. is an
endless joy.
And If, once on the voyage, the
sleeping waters suddenly seethe
and foam, the typhoon zips and
cuts. not a wind, but an explosion.
and the great vessel fights and
struggles and wins-it is an in
terlude to remember forever.
If you feel the call Of the sea,
answer it If you can. And count
yourself happy If Fate sends you
to the South Seas.

World Over
BY Chester H. Rowell

GTHE sea used to be a place
to get away from the world.
~ Voyages were long and
isolated. The ship was a part Of
the sea, the play of it's winds, the
produce Of its forces. The spirit
of the voyager merged in that of
the sea.
Thrones might fall or rise; sci
ence might reveal new miracles;
gossips, scandals and politics
might fill the press and excite the
people of the land-what cared the
seaman?
Today's barometer and tomor-
rows weather were far more inter
esting. The winds, the white sails,
and the courage and skill Of men
determined our voyage.
We were citizens of a tiny world,
a1oat on the limitless deep, indif-
ferent to the brawling Of men and
nations, and happy in the peace
of the great spaces.
The sea is no longer lonely. You
go to sea in a floating hotel, driven
by machinery and manned by me-
chanics; not a native, but an in
truder in the deep.
The Wireless News, morning
and evening, brings you the base

ball scores, the stock quotations,
the advertisements Of the barber's
wares, the gossip Of the ship, and
the rest of what you have been
used to think is important news.
Your friends ashore send greet
ings, and you send greetings in
return. There are fresh flowers
on your table, and you eat fresh
cold-storage food-just what you
had at home.
The voyage is almost too short
to get acquainted with your ship
mates; before you are fairly set
tied down to sea you r on land
again.
1t is easy. 1t is more than com
Portable; it is luxurious. 1t is what
most Of us want.
But it is not the sea.

man who became a pope, I asked
you to approach it with broad toler-

To me this story is beautifully
sympathetic and in no way reflects
upon the Catholic Church. At this

To me it is a sweet and unoffen-

respect for the church concerned nor
its head which is, of course, a fiction

There is a gorgeous, sympathetic

which confronts Maximus. You see

That Is my personal opinion of
the story based upon my literary
standards. I am going to cherish
this little story of how a great fic-
tional church leader solved a human
problem.
In this department I read ard tell
you about many books. I am not
afraid to state my opinion. 1 am
willing to meet any storm that 1
