“WITH ALLENBY IN PALESTINE”

Sacred Views Also to Be Shown at Methodist Celebration. Photographs by Lowell Thomas, Famous Lecturer and Writer, Offers - Rare Opportunity to Witness Military Operations at Celebration at Columbus, June 20 to July 13. Would you like to fly from Cairo to Jerusalem? Would you like to hover over the pyramids and cross, in a few minutes, the country over which the Israelites wandered for 40 years? Would you like to stand in the cave of Machpelah, before the tombs of Abraham, of Isaac, of Jacob, of Robeccah, of Rachel, where only three Christians have ever stood? Would you like to go “nose-diving” over Bethlehem at the rate of 150 miles an hour? Would you like to see Allenby’s soldiers capture Jerusalem and Jericho and Christian sentries guarding the Mount of Olives and the Garden of Gethsemane? The opportunity to do all these will be presented at the Methodist

Centenar/ celebration at Columbus, 0., June 20 to July 13, in the Lowell Thomas travelogue, “With Allenby in Palestine " For, in this talk, illustrated by amazing moving pictures and still photographs, the first authentic eye-witness account by a fully accredited observer of this dashing campaign will be given. They show the great military operation from its beginning to its end, when the Turk had been driven out of the Holy Land and Allenby stood astride the Berlin-Bagdad railroad at Aleppo, ending the Mittel Europ* scheme of the kaiser and the panGermans forever. But they show more than that. They show all the sacred places of which Christians have heard since their childhood. They show how the places look today and how the people of Palestine are actually living. They show almost everything that one would care to see or know of Palestine —certainly more than any ord: % nary traveler could see in half a dozen visits to that country* These travelogues have obtained the unanimous indorsement of the clergy of New York city. They will appear at Columbus during the entire time of the great Methodist celebration.
