Upon reaching shore the little

i prowling about for a couple of
; hours, left that place for evermore.

SALOOM’S
Serial on
Prophet Shocks
Young Turks
CONSTANTINOPLE, ' Oct. 26.—A
Stamboul newspaper "Ikdam,”
otvned by a group of Turkish dep
uties, is publishing a serial life of
the Prophet Mohammed in which,
probably for the first time in the
history of Turkish publications, he
is referred to not with the tradi
tional title of respect “hazretleri"
(“honored"), but simply as “that
man.”
In one chapter, for instance, he
is “that man who, after having been
faithful to one wife for forty years,
i found at the age of sixt'y, the need
.of taking unto himself three wives
1 more."
Shocked comments are rife, not
only among the old-timers but also
among young Turks, bred under the
new regime, who say that while
they do not care to partake in the
old Moslem ritual and do not, for
the most part, even attend mosque
services, nevertheless they do still
cleave to Mohammed as their pro
phet and as their ethical ideal.
They declare that any utterance
against him “Squeezes their souls’’
—this being the Turkish expression j
to describe unpleasant sensations.
SHRINE DANCE
ENJOYABLE ONE
One of the most enjoyable af-1
fairs of the autumn season took \
place last night when members of
the Juneau Shrine Club were hosts
at a very lovely dance given in the
Scottish Rite Temple.
The Ball Room was appropri
ately decorated in the Hallowe’en j
colors of orange and black, and a ;
subdued lighting effect cast eerie!
shadows on the walls which were |
occupied by large black cats, tur
tles, owls and bats.
Delicious refreshments were
served in the banquet room through
out the evening.
This is the first of a series of
dances to be held during the year
by the Shrine Club.
