COUSIN H A R R Y RASKIN,
former boxer now one of the top
trainers in the fight game, tells
of the gent who came to him I
with. a neat offer for Harry to
teach him boxing lessons . .
Harry agreed, and after getting
himself prepared, the man put
up his "dukes" ready for the
start . . "Who is that coming
through the door?" Harry asked
. . The fellow turned his head
and Harry handed him a wallop
on the jaw . "That is the first
lesson," he said. "Learn to con-
centrate. Don't take your mind
off what you are doing or your
eyes off the fellow you are box-.
ing . . $25 please."

SHIRLEY DAVIS is back home

tically around the country at I
various jobs . . . The popular gal

THE ONE TIME Sidney Kalish
stayed in Mimi Beach during
the high-dollar winter season
was enough . .. That's why he
makes sure to go every summer
• , . It was last year that Sidney
concluded a happy three-weeks
at the Lord Tarleton Hotel while
"everybody must be freezing up
north." ... He asked for his bill,
took one look at the total, and
murmured softly, The Lord giv-
eth and the ,Lord Tarleton tak-
eth away."

AL ROSENBERG tells the one
about a well-known entertainer
who was giving with his talents
for a local organization . . . Just
after his appearance the pro-
gram chairman of the woman's
club who presented him brought
him a telegram announcing that
his wife had just given birth to
twins . • . He was overcome with -
delight and exclaimed joyously,
"It's the first time I ever re-
ceived two fees for one perform-
ance."

SAMMY WOOLF collected a
black eye a short while back,
which he aptly covered with
powder while entertaining . .
He said he ran into an open
door . . . At any rate, Sammy
had himself photographed with
the black eye showing promi-
nently, and sent a copy to his
friend Max Sosin with this in-
scription : "Nobody can talk that
way a b o ut., you when I'm
around!"

Baha'i in Israel:
Unusual Shrine
An unusual, nine-sided struc-
ture of granite and marble,
stained-glass, and tiles literally
made of gold, has begun attract-
ing tourists to Israel from the
corners of the world.
Constructed it a cost of close
to a million dollars, the shrine
encloses the tomb of Bab, the
forerunner of the Baha'i faith,
who was martyred a century ago.
Soaring 135 feet above the or-
derly beauty of the Baha'i gar -
dens on Biblical Mounty Carmel.
Haifa, the shrine has already be-
come a landmark in the moun-
tainside city of Haifa.
The_ history of Baha'i is inti-
mately connected with Haifa
and with the land of the Bible:
It had its beginnings in Persia
in 1844 with the preachings of
the Bab, who spoke of himself
as the "Herald of one who is
greater than I." After he was
martyred together with many of
his followers, his success or, Ba-
ha 'Ullah, whose n a m e means
"Glory of God," was imprisoned
in Persia and later exiled to the
Dark Crusade fortress at Acre,
in Palestine, whose thick walls
and - battlements face Haifa
aor o s s the horseshoe-shaped
Haifa Bay. .,
Gradually, the Turkish rulers
of Palestine gave Baha 'Ullah
more freedom and, at last, he
was able to spread the Baha'i
faith with little interference. He
died in 1892, and was buried in
a small but lovely 'tomb, sur-
rounded by gardens, near Acre.
The tomb is carpeted by dozens
of priceless Persian rugs, form-
ing one of the world's greatest
collections. Baha 'Ulla's eldest
son, Abdul-Baha, continued his
work until there were millions
of Baha'i followers all over the
world. Abdul-Baha, who died in
1921, was buried in the Baha'i
gardens in Haifa, which had be-
come the world spiritual center
of Baha'i.
Shoghi Eff, Rabbani, the pres-
ent guardian of the Baha'i
Cause, and his Canadian-born
wife, live in a graceful home ad-
joining the gardens, whose tall
cypresses and flowering bou-
gainvillea are symbols of the
peace and harmony which are
an essential part of Baha'i.
Some 350 Baha'is, mostly de-
scendants of the men and worn-
en who came to Palestine with
Baha 'Ullah, live in Haifa and
Acre as equal citizens of the
Jewish State.

American Notes:
Although no figures have been revealed as yet on the amount
of aid which the U. S. Government intends to give to Egypt, in-
formed sources in Washington indicate that Egypt may get more
than $50,000,000 in military and economic assistance.
Preparations have been completed in New York for the estab-
lishment of a financial institution in the United States to aid
Israel exporters . . . The company would begin operating with a
credit of $700,000 . 'Together with the credits it expects to
obtain •from American banks, the new institution would be able
to extend up to about $2,500,000 in credits to Israeli exporters.
A new and interesting development on the Israel export trade
is the recent export of large quantities of beer to the United
States .. . You can buy Israel beer, produced by "Abir," in bottles
and in cans in the better delicatessen stores . A second ship-
ment - of 120,000 cans of "Abir" beer has- just arrived in New York.
. The owner of the "Abir" company has interests in beer pro-
duction in the United States . . He is utilizing his organizational
machinery and distribution apparatus in this country for the
marketing of his Israel-produced beer.
