sEAsHORE FAVORED

In England the vacation is usu-
ally spent at SeaShore resort and
as England is an island, there is
an abundance Of such places. It
all boilS down to arguments for or
against the south coast, the west
coast or the northeast coast. Along
the south coast, such places as
Brighton, EaStbourne, Hastings,
Bexhill. Worthing and Bognor are
prime favoriteS.
But many declare in favor Of
the east coast resorts which are
more breezy, such as Margate,
Ramsgate, Herne Bay, Clayton and
Frinton, the latter q most fash
ionable resort filled with wonder
full estates.
Along the Yorkshire coast there
are Scarborough, Whitby, Filey,
Cromer and further down, More
Gamble and Blackpool. The last is
q famous resort where the mill
hands and factory workers of Ian
caShire make merry, spending
funds that they have accumulated
all year just for this precious
week or fortnight. Blackpool is a
StupendouS place, with everything
on a gigantic scale.
Along the west coast, Torquay,
Ifracombe and WeSton-Super-
Mere are prime favoriteS. Those
who don't care for the Seashore
declare in favor of the Leke Dis
trict, a farmhouse in Sussex or a
visit to the lovely counties Of
DevonShire and Cornwall.
The railroads are again running
land cruises. for these have proved
tremendously successful.
IN FRANCE
In France, families favor the

POLITICAL STRATEGY

Representative Bertrand H.
Smell, minority leader in the
House, who has been the object OF
criticism on several occasions
when his Republican colleagues
charged that he was not being
overly astute politically, put one
over on his Democratic opponents
the other day in a manner that
strengthened his own standing.
It was in connection with the
row between Representative John
Taber, Republican of New York,
in which it was charged that Rep
reSentative John A. Martin, Demo
crat Of Colorado, had had inserted
in the Congressional Record GER
tain remarks which he attributed
to Taber and which the latter
commended placed him in a bad
light by indicating that he IA
vored WPA.
When the House had the oppor-
tunity to expunge the matter
from the Record, the Democrats
voted almost solidly against the
resolution for correcting the Jour-
nal. The resolution was defeated,
239 to lis.
Then Democrats began to re-
alize they were in the position Of
having voted to preserve an err
roneouS Record.
Representative Martin then
asked that unanimous consent be
given to have the record corrected
but Smell said that he would OBJ
ject because the Democrats had
voted for the incorrect material.
He later objected to a similar. re-

q question on SehatOk McAooOs'
the Constitution Of the United
States.
In one town which McAdoo Wis
tied was an elderly colored man
who always exercised his right
to vote.
When he went to the polls the
year McAdoo was there, however,
an election Judge stopped him and
informed him that he would have
to give some indication Of his
knowledge of the Constitution.
The election judge asked him:
"What does it mean when it
says that 'habeus corpus shall
not be suspended"
According to Senator McAdoo,
the elderly colored man pom
dered the situation a moment and
replied:
THAT means that this cOlOred
man can't vote"

Of his courage, endurance and
splendid sanity. He had trained
himself to throw away the non.
eSSentialS-to dispense with need
less emotion-to take life as it
came, and turn his back com.
pletely on that which was past
and that which might come.
DR.. Robertson blundered when,
against warning, he went down
into that crumbling shaft. He
must have known agonized mo-
ments when his partner died in
his arms. There was death con-
Stantly menacing him, the stencil
Of death In his nostrils, the pity Of
death in his heart.
ONLY TODAY
If for one moment he had
abandoned himself to terror Of
regret or despair, he and Scad-
dingS would be raving lunaticS or
dead men today. But he did not
abandon himself
He put it all behind him
"threw it all away''-all save the
need Of the immediate moment.
And he was able to do this be-
cause he had trained his mind,
as an athlete trains his muscle,
to do the healthy and heroic
thing.
THROW 1T AWAY-there's q
vitality necessary rule for every
life. Don't clutter your mind
or heart with needless litter, no
matter how precious that litter
may seem to you. Don't carry
souvenirs of a foolish or pitiful
pastor burden yourself with
terror Of a tragic future. Don't
hug odds and ends Of heartbreak
and remorse, hate and resentment.
THROW TT AWAY! Turn your
back to the past and your eyes
from the future and take life to-
day as it comes.
You can't alter yesterday or
change Tomorrow-no matter how
you may weep, or curse, or
shudder. You have only Today.
Then tackle today-aS is. Take
life as 1t comes. unfettered by
hangovers or approximations.

frighted hens. Edwin c. Hill
And in a certain village, the
great Mr.. Kipling, accused by the
rural constable of travelling at the
perilouS speed of 20 miles an hour,
was hailed before the justice of
the peace and fined an amount
which he considered to be un-
reasonable and extortionate.
Moreover, he was treated with
some contumely. But he had his
revenge. He wrote a story which
came to have worldwide fame
about this village which believed
that the world was flat.
Well, we have a village, a city
rather, Of some 5000 population
where that belief is one of the
major tenets. At least it must be If
Zion City, ILL.,, follows literally the
intellectual guidance of its leader.
Wilbur Glenn Voliva, successor to
John Alexander DoWie. For Mr..
Vollva firmly believes that the
earth is flatter than a pancake,
tour-square, brinked by precipices
from which one might plunge into
the nethermost depths.
There is no use trying to pin
MIN down as to the location of
these boundaries. I have tried to
40 so more than once on his ar
rival back from world tours. Such
definite queries he waves aside as
OF little consequence. The world
IS flat. It IS square. If you
travel far enough, you WILL fall
off. And there you are.
FOUNDED BY DOWIE
But Mr.. Wilbur Glenn Voliva is
nobody's fool when it comes to
business matters. It was in 1905,
just 80 years ago, that Zion City
was handed over to him by the
Prophet Dowie, grand overseer of
Zion City and his own Apostolic
Church.
Dowie, who called himself the
First Apostle Of the Lord, and the
reformation Of the Prophet
Elijah, founded and ruled it with
q heavy hand.
Brushing aside the science Of
five centuries, Voliva gave the
dictun, 1.-THE world is flat. The
law Of gravitation is q myth for
children" He announced that he
would live to be exactly 106 and
that Zion City would flourish
once more despite the machina-
tons Of the ungodly.

anywhere else for that matter.
ATTRACTIONS
Just as we are collecting book
lets and information to help us
to decide on our vacation plans,
people in other parts of the world
are doing the same thing.
AS far as Europe is concerned,
it would seem that most Euro
peanS have one travel objective
and that is to take their vaca-
ton in America.

planned interesting itineraries de-

} the beginning Of this year. Voliva
Is fighting hard, but he has q
battle on his hands. The ban on
motion pictures has been removed
and some other blue laws have
been moderated.
His enemies, characterized by
him as "Seventh-rate idiots" are
still powerful.
Report has 1t that cigarettes,
one-piece bathing suits and lip
sticks are not unknown in the
holy city. But Wilbur Glenn
Voliva strides on, asserting his be-
lief that the wicked will go to
their punishment in a hell which
is q lake Of fire and which lies
somewhere between Chicago and
China.
It will be interesting to see the
outcome of this economic battle In
q teapot; to see just how far in
his comeback will get this plump,
severe, thin-haired gentleman who
got the call to religion while he
was fighting potato bugs on an
Indiana farm.
DYNAMO OF ENERGY
Prominent in the long catalogue
of sins and tranSgreSSions were
smoking, swearing, dancing, short
skirts and the use Of face powder
or cosmetics Of any kind.
OF all the prophets who came
booming along in the past three
quarters of century, John Alex
ander Dowie, understood, pompouS
exhorter, with a full snow-white
beard that fell to his waist, bright
blue eyes, rosy cheeks and great
head crowned by snow-white hair
which drifted to his shoulders, was
by far the most picturesque.
I remember him well when he
came here to New York years ago,
to exercise the devils. He came to
town with an encourage Of some
5000 disciples. They marched
and countermarched. They spoke
on the street corners; Dowie, him.
self, on the platform Of old Madi-
son Square Garden, denounced the
devil and all his works and thun-
dered against the wickedneSS Of
cities.
But somehow, as often happens,
New York was unimpreSSed. Too
far gone in SinfulneSS, perhaps.
And after weeks Of railing and
denouncing Dowie and his disciples
retreated back to Zion City and
left us to our iniquitieS. Voliva
in those days was his chief lieu
tenant and so became his legatee.
Dowie, no business man, had
plunged Zion City, with its 5000
population, into bankruptcy.
Voliva, a keen business man,
took hold with an energetic hand.
He cut expenses and costs. He
held huge mass meetings to raise
funds. He was q perfect dynamo
of energy. During this period he
kept up his ecclesiastical work and
maintained the fundamental teach
ings of Dowie. These included
literal acceptance Of the whole
Bible, word for word, as a guide
to life.
Smoking, drinking, card-playing,
dancing, blasphemy, porkeating-
all were prohibited, along with
medical treatment. They had -
use for the doctors in Zion City.
