Clapping Hands Is Part
of Prayer With Japanese

There are no regular weekly serv-
ices at Shinto shrines in japan. Only
a great festival once a year, cOmmem-
Grating an emperor's birthday, heroic
deed, boys festival, girls festival, rice
planting festival, cherry blossom festi-
val, and similar secular celebrations.
Sacred and religious ceremonies are
held in the Buddhist temples. 1t seems
that Shintoism is for life in this world
and Buddhism for the hereafter, OBJ
serves writer in the Chicago Tribune.
Before approaching the shrine the
devotee washes his hands at fOun-
tain provided for that purpose. There
is no kneeling-simply close eyes, bow
head, clap hands two or three times,
concentrate two or three seconds on
prayer. The handclapping is to indi-
cate that one comes to the shrine un-
armed and in spirit of peace and
good will; handclapping is not possible
while clasping a weapon.
The long lines of school children at
the Meiji shrine suggest the thought
that every boy and girl in all Japan
must be duty bound to visit this great
group of memorial buildings.
In the spacious outer precincts Of
the Meiji shrine is the Jingu stadium,
with seating capacity for $1,000 spec
tators, with the largest and finest
arena in the Orient; a baseball dia-
mond and grandstands to seat $4,000 !;
a swimming pool in which 1900 can
disport themselves; jujitsu or wrest-
ling ring, and plenty of apparatus and
paraphernalia for other games and con-
tests. On alternate years the japanese
National Olympic games are held on
these ample grounds.

on the wall of the main room, right op-

the position and appearance of the
empty frame which had so startled
Jean the night before.
THAT wasn't no picture Of Jean.

Just horse. What the HI do you

Nothing. It's kind of interesting

can see Jean has heavy drag with
her father-and maybe is the only one
that has. But that's slim backing,
Lee, for what you said. What was
your other reason"-he watched Bishop
steadily-''for thinking that Jean is
keeping her father from making a
stand against Elliot? Didn't you have
another reason that you haven't given
me?"
Lee Bishop hesitated for long
time. "No," he said at last.
Lee" said Kentucky, "if Jean
doesn't want her father to scrap it out
with Elliot, what do you suppose her
reason is?"
How do l know what her reason
is?' said Lee Bishop explosively. How
does any man know what any woman's
reason is? Maybe the trouble we've
had here already has made her
sick of guns, and she's afraid that If

Immediately the parallel between this
suggestion and the accepted theory of

improbability that this could have hap

When the other riders had gone
about their work of feeding the stock,
Lee Bishop took Kentucky Jones aside.

KELLY PETILLO ON MAY 30, WON
the 5OO-Mile Indianapolis Race ON
Firestone Tires, breaking the track record
and driving the entire distance at rate
of l06.24 miles per hour.
This record is an outstanding
demonstration of tire efficiency. To go 500
miles in less than five hours on this rough
and bumpy 26-year-old brick track,
without tire trouble of any kind,
demonstrates the strength and blowout
protection that Firestone builds into their
Gum-Dipped Tires.

Cum-Dipped Tires. He drove his 5000
pound car over the hot salt beds at Lake
Bonneville, Utah, 5000 miles in 23A
hours. This was an average speed of 1872
miles per hour, and although temperatures
were as high as 1902, he had no blowouts
or tire trouble of any kind.
These records are made possible by

Firestone Tires.

stand on the invitation, despite Pey-

He explained today he did not know

Wheatley Of the association already
had asked Beck to make the address.
He said he considered 1t merely

and that he would have made no OBJ
lection had he known the true facts.
Wheatley said he had invited Beck,

to address the association at special
meeting December 5 on some legal
subject, not a political one. The asso-

District Division Divided by

Factional differences in the Young

single difference that it will carry also

The senior body has claimed about

from the other body, and the rest new
recruits.
