How does It feel to be the
strongest woman In the world?
When asked this question through
an interpreter>-for she hasn't been
in this country long enough to learn
the language-haxen haired, blue
eyed, Claudia Alba, Europe's
famous strong woman. who is at the
Lyric this week, shrugged her
shoulders, smiled and replied:
Not any different than It feels
to be anything else"
Miss Alba, a native OF Bavaria, is
% years old. and is said to be able
to lift more weight than any other
member Of her sex. But there is
nothing in her appearance that
would indicate exceptional strength.
She is rather stockily built. but no
more so than the average American
girl. who goes in for athletic sports.
Miss Alba juggles 25-pound can
non balls, two Of them. at the same
time. She catches an S4-pound steel
torpedo jacket, flung from a spring
board, on the back OF her neck,
juggles a Roman chariot on her
chin. and. with her teeth. lifts a
cannon Weighing 225 pounds from
tho ground and swings It in mid-air.
She has been engaged in athletics
since she was a child OF s. and until
four years ago. was an aerial trapeze

DR.. e. J. Clarke, Editor:
No more important election has
ever been held in the State Of Mary
land than the one to be held this fall.
Affecting as it does every public
office in the State, It is quite natur-
ally beginning to receive the attention
of our people. While none is Of so lit
tie importance as not to merit con-
sideration, there is one in particular
Of special importance to which
wish to call attention.
The four lower counties of the
Eastern Shore will be called upon to
elect Chief Judge of this Judicial
circuit. Worcester county is entitled
to recognition in this respect; her in
terest and pride as well demand it;
provided Of course, one worthy OF
such honorable, position can be found
in her borders.
Fortunately, we do possess such a
one and, in offering his name, I am
not doing so upon my own response
bility alone, but only after have
heard it suggested many times in this
connection. Not in my own county
of Worcester alone but in the adjoin-
ing counties where / travel as well. ]
refer to former Judge William +.
johnson. His character, qualifications
and general fitness for this honorable
position are all too well known and
recognized for me to dwell upon.
do not wish in anyway to reflect
upon the present incumbent Of that
office. So far as I know, he may have
discharged his duties most acceptably.
In fact, I believe such to be the case.
However after II years of continuous
service, a reelection could not be
probably of long duration by reason
of age limit. It would be of short
time in any event.
For this reason and knowing Judge
Johnson as I do, his reputation for
what is good in his community, his
high standard Of character and abili-
ty, and his quiet .dignifed, perhaps,
too retiring disposition, hope he will
be convinced Of his duty to himself
and to the people whom he would
serve, and Of their desire to have him
serve, and become candidate.
Yours resp,

Alya J. Henderson Elected Assistant
Secretary Of New York Title
And Mortgage Company

The following is clipping from a
New York paper and what it con-
tains is highly complimentary to a
former Pocomoke boy:
Thirteen is not regarded as an I'M
lucky day at all by Alva J. Hender-
son, of the Jamaica office of the New
York Title and Mortgage Co. In
fact he thinks it very lucky day, for
when the Board Of Directors Of the
New York Title and Mortgage Com
pany met on January 10 In, the Man
haitian headquarters of the company
Mr.. Henderson was one Of the three
assistant secretaries of the company
elected. The other two men are sit
uated with the Brooklyn and Manhat-
tan Offices.
Mr.. Henderson is very young
man to be appointed to so responsible
position even in company whose
policy it is to give rapid promotion
to promising youths in their employ.
He was born in Pocomoke City, Md,
20 years ago and has been with the
organization eight years.
After his education in the public
school of his native town Mr.. Hender-
son came to New York and obtained
employment as an office boy with the
law firm Of Curtis Mallet-Pre &
Colt. While working for the lawyers
young Henderson by his industry
and faithful work attracted the at
tention Of Edward Mellowney, assist
ant treasurer Of the Brooklyn office
Of the Title Company. Henderson &C.
cepted the position Of examiner under
Mr.. Mellowney and rose to the posi-
ton Of manager Of the business de-
partment in the Jamaica office. In
this capacity he has been the right
hand man Of Ernest J. Habighorst,
vice-president Of the company.
Mr.. Henderson is o nephew OF
Thompson and Robert Henderson, o1

It is this program which the Del

proceed to acquire the definite local in

that there have been no drastic de-
clines since that time. However, there
are no facts at hand which enable
those who take this stand to prove
their case. One of the first actions to

Shore Association would be to start

the purpose of checking local land

Such check is important because,

WEEKLY SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
Teaching of Johns Gospel Explained in This Study

that all this subllmity is brought
near to the lives and homes of men
everywhere.
He Is divine to make us divine,
and whether or not the words came
from the same writer, the comment
in Johns epistle is true rendering
OF the whole spirit and purpose Of
Johns Gospel: Beloved. now are
we the sons of God. and 1t doth not
yet appear what we shall be; but we
know that. when he shall appear, we
shall be like him; for we shall see
him as he is"
Expressing Divinity
1t is entirely in harmony with the
purpose of Christ In coming to the
world that his divinity should .hus
be vitality expressed in human con-
facts and in terms of human ex.
perience. The divinity OF our Lord
is not a theoretical, speculative
thing, something about which man
may engage in controversy and
quarrel. All the divinity of His life
was revealed before men that He
might show them the way to God.
No man truly believes In the di.
vinity of Jesus who is not seeking
through close contacts with Jesus
to make his own life divine. It is
the privilege Of Christ's disciples to
become "partakers OF the divine
nature"
We cannot be too insistent upon
the richly human aspects of Johns
Gospel. Many have tended 10 think
of Luke's Gospel as pre.cmiently en-
pressing the humanity of Jesus,
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-03-27

fundamental Of all truths, that God
is spirit and that they worship him
must worship him In spirit and III
truth.
Typical Verse
Possibly the most typical verse to
characterize the whole Gospel of
John is found in the words of Jesus:
THE words that l speak unto you
are spirit. they are life" How sig
nificant this statement becomes is
seen as we follow the intimate teach
ings OF Jesus concerning his relation
ship to men and God. He is the
Good Shepherd, laying down his life
for his sheep that they may have
life and salvation. He is the way
to God. bringing Immortality to
light and triumph. And the resur-
rection is but the seal and witness
to his teaching and revelation.
The theme OF the Gospel of John
is the divinity CT Christ. But we
Gospel sets forth his true humanity
and the rich intimacy OF his rela-
tionship with men and women in the
ordinary walks and experiences Of
life. Not only have we the biOrious
revelation of the upper room, hut
we have the picture Of the sympa-
thetic Christ in contact with the
home at Bethany.
The sublimity of the teaching Of
the Gospel of John would lose al
most all Of its meaning and signifi-
canoe were it not for the profound
truth that the Gospel emphasizes,
