WONDERS OF THE HOLY LAND
By Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson
President of The Mme. C. J. Walker
Manufacturing Co.
No matter in which manner ap
proach to Palestine is made, one
somehow feels that he has begun a
sojourn among the most Holy of
Holies, and not because of the ab
sence of company, for there are many
fellow pilgrims on the boats and
trains that touch points in the Holy
Land. There are merchants and trad
ers too, from the four points of the

Some people save spasmodically, they save
for a time and then fall back into careless
habits. Regularity in saving is necessary
for financial headway.
Pledge yourself to set aside a certain
amount each pay day and then live up to it.
The results of consistent saving will sur
prise you.

moving about with apparently no
thought of the sacred land in which j
they move. Their lack of apprecia
tion of the unequalled wonders of
their native land is common, just as
America’s wonders are often passed
unnoticed by us.
Upon arriving, one is impressed
with the politeness of the customs’
officials whose virtues, by the way,
do not include immunity from graft
ing and petty thievery. A coin placed
into the examining officer’s hands is
I known to be the trick that facilitates
an easy and hasty entrance to the
' Land Where Christ Lived. Once in,
you are known to all who chance to
see you as a person of untold wealth.
Foreigners, in spite of the thousands
who visit there annually, are novel
ties and the natives seek to obtain a
souvenir from every one they see.
Jerusalem, the first point of inter
est 1 visited in Palestine, and the
largest and most important city, is
s tunted on four hills, 2,500 feet above
the Mediterranean Sea and surround
ed on three sides by ravines, the
fourth side joining one of the hills
with the main range of mountains of
of the country. It is truly the Golden
City, as may be seen by the countless
golden domes, spires and minarets of
a thousand and more churches, mos
ques and synagogues glittering and
dazzling in the sunlight and the hous
es of white stone and rough marble
silhouetted against the azure sky rep
resenting the residences and business
shops of 70,000 Moslems, Jews and
\ Christians. Scores of ill paved, crook
. ed, narrow streets mark the paths
through the city and lend their bit to
the enchantment of the Holy Land.
Antedating the birth of Christ, Pal
estine has been a hotbed of religious
wars, massacres and destruction, and
much that is which allures and draws
one there can be said to have resulted
from these wars. I n more peaceful
times progress would have crept in
and doubtless wiped out the history
that remains.
Strange enough to say, Moham
j medanism is the principal religion of
1 Palestine and its hold on the majori
i ty of the people is remarkable, antt
| even stranger to say, thoir principal
i church, the Mosque Omar erected A.
D. 691, is the most beautiful structure
I of its kind in the world.
In Jersusalem there is to be seen
the Church of the Holy Sepulchre,
which it is said covers the spot
where Jesus Christ’s body was anoint
ed by Nicodemus and which contains
the Rock Calvary, a stone with two
foot prints said to be those of Christ,
- and the stone that was rolled away
THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING
from the mouth of the sepulchre by j 1
an angel. Then there is the Russian j i
Excavation Church, which encloses, i
the original gates of Jerusalem, the ]
Garden of Gethsemane, the tomb of
Mary and the Chapel of the Ascen
sion on the Mount of Olives, contain
ing a rock marked by tradition as the'
exact spot where Christ ascended in
to Heaven; there is the tomb of Dav
id on Mount Zion and the Chamber
of the Lord’s Last Supper; the Jew’s
Wailing Place, which is against the
Wall of Solomon and is where the
Jews go daily to cry and pray for the)
revelation of the burial place of the
Ten Commandments.
The City of Bethlehem, the home
of David and the birthplace of Christ,
is interesting for its Church of the Na
tivity, erected over the birthplace of
Christ and containing the resting
place of the Manger. Here also is
located the Chapel of Innocence.
Bethlehem represents the beginning
of the history of Christ and offers
splendid opportunity for first hand
comparison of much relating to His
early life.
There is Jericho, the Promised
Land of Elijahs’ Fountain beside the
school of the Sons of the Prophets
and Bethany, which is now an entire
ly Moslem City, with the spot where
stood the house of Simon, the leper,
and where Lazarus was resurrected
by Christ; and then, the dead Sea and
the River of Jordan with muddy, tur
bulent. waters and which rises in
Mount Hermon. These are by no
means all the wonders of the Holy
I Land. There are as many more, of
lesser importance, but interesting and
1 related very directly to the more
; famous biblically-historical places.
Palestine is wonderful, and though
, the least of all the lands, it is with
influence that penetrates into the
i furthermost corner of the earth. It
is not a beautiful land, but picturesqe
t and possessing all the requisites that
. go to make beauty—hills and valleys,
3 sloping plateaus and rugged shore
> lines, barren deserts and verdant
meadows. To go there and see the
r wonders of the past is to receive an
unequalled education, to be a master
of the biblical history and to gain a
more clear and comprehensive knowl
edge of the Christ that was and the
Christianity that is. A trip to the
Holy Land and full realization of
much the Bible speaks of should be
aspired to by every one and most cer
tainly by the large number of church
men whose chosen field is service and
the perpetuation of the teachings of
Christ. And such a trip is not im
possible. It is within your reach. A
trip to Palestine, the wonderful Holy
Land, free of all cost, is yours if you
determine to earn it.
Buy and read race papers April first
and learn how to make this unequal
ed trip free of all cost. Buy, Read
and Act.

Notes From Superior
Mr. Jake Burns of Phoenix has ac
cepted a position as chef in the Mess
house at Superior, Ariz., and all the
boys say Jake is ‘‘some” cook.
Superior is looking up and business
in every line is improving. There are
not enough houses to take care of the
growing population.
Mr. Tobe Jackson, of Miami, was a
Superior visitor last week, and was
the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. J.
H. Miller at the club house.
A little baby daughter came to the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Taylor on
the evening of March 4th. Mother
