Earliest Christian Chapel Moved From
Syria to New Haven Fine Arts Gallery

The earliest Christian chapel ever
discovered has been moved over
seas from Syria and reconstructed
in the Yale Gallery of Fine Arts, at
New Haven, Conn. The chapel is
of extraordinary historic interest,
since it dates from the early part
of the Third century, when Chris
tians worshiped secretly in Rome's
catacombs, in such tiny, concealed
rooms as the Syrian chapel. On
the walls are paintings, indicating
how early Christians pictured such
scenes as Christ healing the lame
man at Capernaum, Peter attempt
ing to walk on the water and the
three Marys at the tomb of Christ.
A box-like affair is identified as an
early baptismal font. 1t is rooted
by a barrel vault supported by pill
lars.
Yale archeologists who unearthed
the chapel in ruins of Dura -on-the-
Euphrates, says writer in the
Kansas City Star, trace its history
through several generations of use,
ending with Dura's fall in the Per-
sian siege of 256 A. D. The chapel,
they explain, first was merely a Sc
cluded room in the home of wealthy

Famous Food Expert
To Conduct Feature

Y EGINNING with this issue
- this paper is pleased to an
nounce a new series of articles
which we believe to be the
most original and up to date
food department in the country.
We wanted to offer a food
department that was live-in-
teresting-different. We wanted
to get away from the usual
"recipe column" We believe
the women of this community
are primarily interested in food
in it's relation to health, in its
effect on growing children. In
formation of this sort has usu-
ally been too scientific to be
understood by the average per-
son, but in this series it is pre-
sented in clear, understandable
language and applied so that it
will fit the average household.
c. Houston Goudiss, famous
author, lecturer, and radio per-
sonality, will conduct this de-
partment each week. Many
housewives will want to make
scrapbooks of these articles.

Christians, who must have offered it
as a safe place for worship in time
of Christian persecution.
A generation or two later, when
the Christian sect had grown strong
er and was more tolerated, the fam
ily moved out, leaving the large and
elegant house to the Christian COM
munity. The archeologists infer
this from finding no trace of stove,
cistern, or other household gear. At
this time, the rooms were re-
arranged and walls of the tiny chap
ell were decorated with their many
Biblical paintings. Other rooms in
the house were anonymously left
adorned with pagan Bacchic friezes.
This suggests to the archeologists
that taste had changed, or else that
final siege of the city in 256 inter.
rupted the renovation.

CHAPTER w

The Lady Eulalia huddled herself
into as small bundle as she could
on the doubtful seat of the lancha
which was pulling rapidly away
from the unfriendly harbor Of San
Bias. AS the standing oarsmen bent
to their long sweeps she could
glimpse between them the low ware
houses on the shore, and the bare
ribs of ship under construction in
the shipyard. But her tear-filled
eyes watched, until it was no larger
than a watermelon seed, her COM

her arms. cuddling the shivering
little beast TO her gaunt breast, her
eyes as dismal as the monkeys.
Pedro the Younger sat beside
her. Soon a huge shadow loomed
over them. They looked up.
There, with screaming gulls wheel

steep sides and high. ungainly poop
of the paquebot San Carlos. some
times called the Golden Fleece.

Being reassured that the SO chests
of raiment, jewels. linens and silks
were safely slowed, she relapsed
again into her coma of mareami-
ento, seasickness, and emerged not
until she was safely on the shores
of Baja California.
California;! Anxiously she regard
ed the ancient mission settlement
of Loreto, the first outpost Of that
mysterious land to which she was
summoned. Here was the sordid-
ness for which she had been pre-
pared. but where were the glories
that had been mentioned?
Beautiful California;" she
sneered. Lovely California! My
home. Ha." Then she smiled gra-
ciouSly at the young officer come to
escort her to quarters in the quad
rangle. Once within its bare white
walls she felt she could abandon
herself to all her weakness, her des-
olation, her fear of this strange
country and the dreaded journey be-

TIPS to
Gardeners
Miscellaneous Tips

Y EFORE planting, work soil
- deeply, making the top three
or four inches as fine and loose as
possible.
For better termination, pour
water into the drill or furrow just
before sowing. Use enough wa
ter to moisten the soil, but not
enough to cause caking.
If you have had little experience
and wish to try the vegetables
easiest to grow, select radishes,
carrots, beets, Swiss chard, and
turnips. With a good-sized garden
you might add spinach, peas,
beans and corn.
If your garden is small and you
wish to increase the total yield,
try the following quick-growing
vegetables:
Radish, leaf lettuce, beets, car
rots, peas and beans. You can
replant most of these after space
has been made for them by early
harvest.
Do not plant seeds deeper than
directed. After planting cover

soil down firmly.

you see to that?"
Serra's face fell.
What is the matter? Does she

Very well, indeed. She has been
taught to sew. spin, cook and will
be a good wife for a good soldier.

their welfare? We have not deemed
