A TALE That is a Yarn The followers of Bahai in Chicago are said to number 1,000, and the fair members of the sect propose now to erect a temple to the glory of the founder and prophet of the mystic faith which had its origin in far-away Persia. With their own fair hands these women propose to do the work of masons, artisans, laborers until the most wonderful religious edifice in the United States rears its towering cupola proudly above the shores of Lake Michigan. The building of the temple by the Bahaists themesleves is not a necessary rite or demanded by any of the requirements of worship.

The money at hand and to be contributed will only purchase the material, and the followers of the martyred Babi will do the rest. The Bahaists in Chicago number about 1,000. There are less than 5,000 in the United States, but the leaders declare the faith is spreading rapidly, it is an offshoot of Mahammedanism. essentially a system of pantheism, made up from gnostic, cabalistic and even Buddhistic sources. All individual existence, according to Bahaists, is an emanation from Supreme Deity and will all ultimately be absorbed nto the source whence it comes.

The ground work of the faith is contained in the startling declaration that while it is impossible for the finite to comprehend the infinite, the Almighty can and has made a face whereby the children of earth can know and love him. In other words, that God assumed an earthly body and ness. She has been prominent in musical circles and her friends are confident that she will win the honors at Iola.
