82 BRIDGE T0 BALTIC ISLAND PLANNED Playground Is to Be Con- nected With German Mainland. “The Baltic Island of Rugen. soon to be connected with the German mainland by one of the longest bridges in the world, is a favorite playground of vacationists from Northern Europe as well as an im- portant link _in_the shortest rail route from Berlin to Stockholm," says @ bulletin from the National ieographic Society. d of dark beech forests from ch bold white cliffs jut into the sea, of broad meadows, quaint vil- lages and sandy beaches. Rugen forms a Summer paradise, where pagan legend and medieval history give depth and meaning to a varied landscape. Largest German Island. “Rugen’s total area comprises more than 375 square miles, making it the Jargest istand of Germany,” continues he bulletin. “It is separated from the Pomeranian coast of Prussia by the 2-mile-wide Stretlasun and is of extremely irregular shape, having Jong, curving promontories with deep | bays and broad K give a varied and divers! o the scener) “Gateway to this Summer play- ground is the historic city of Stral- sund. on the mainland, from which terminus trains of the Berlin main ssland itself, where the railway con- land itself, where the raiway con- to connect at Sassnitz with the steamship line from Sweden. Stralsuid, next to Lubeck, was the most important Hanse town on the Baltic. It is entirely surrounded by water, and during the Thirty Year War its inhabitants successfully re- sisted a 10-week siege by the relentless Wallenstein, who had sworn to take it. ‘though it were chained to heaven.’ “Wwith ancient fortifications de- molished or converted into parkways, Stralsund is still a joy to lovers of quaint architecture. " Tall, gabled houses elhow one another above nar- row, cobbled streets. Gothic churches with storied pasts invite the pious to worship and a town hall dating from the thirteenth century fronts its snlendid facade upon the market place. Climate Is Mild. “From Stralsund's historic pictur- esqueness the visitor turns to the Island of Rugen itself, lying just scross the narrow strait. Although in approximately the same latitude as Labrador and Kamehatka, Rugen indulzes in none of the rigors of elimate of these Far Northern regions, thanks to the influence of the gulf stream upon Baltic waters. Winters are cold, to be sure, but Summers are almost Mediterranean. Day after day jellyfish float placidly in a sea of deepest blue while gentle ocean breezes stir forests of beech and pine. “The western part of the island is ng, with meadows of sea P far-stretching sand beaches and rolling dunes, among Wwhich nestles an occasional fishing village. Rising toward the east into higher country, Rugen thrusts a bold and indented coast to the sea. Great white cliffs fall sheer to the water’s edge. On one summit, offering a magnificent panorama of ocean and sky, Charles XII of Sweden is said 1o have had his chair placed so that he could watch a naval battle be- 1ween his followers and the Danes. Tow long stretches of its history Rugen was under Swedish rule and many Swedish customs survive among the habits of:its quaint coun- try folk. “Deep In the forésts behind the eliffs is a black and &ent pool whose traditions date bax to heathen Germany. According to the Roman iristorian ‘Tacitns, this poel was sacred to the Goddess Hertha, mother of the earth, and here human sacri- fices were offered in her honor. “Along the rocky and forested southeastern and eastern coasts lie the vacation resorts that have made Rugen famous, Putbus is the ancient seat of the princes of that name. Vilm, Gehren, Sellin and Binz each draw their Summer thousands. Sassnitz {s the largest town, and it is from here that the train steamers depart for Trelleberg on the oppo- site Swedish coast. Terraced hotels, handsome villas and gay out-of-door restaurants with bandstands give Sassnitz the air of a true Summer metropolis. Central Farm Lands. “The rail route from Sassnitz lies throuzh the farming country of the Ysland to Bergen, the capital, and thence to Altefahr, where the ferry carries trains bodily to Stralsund. This inland country is typical of the farm lands of Northern Prussia and Southern Sweden. There are broad, fiat fields of rye, wheat and sugar beets, dark, forests and wide meadows with slow-moving horses and cows dotted about. There are quaint farm villages and cheerful peasants who cling tenaclously in the more outlying parts of the island to the dress and customs of the past. From this sturdy stock near the village of Sheritz came the venerable German patriot and poet of the last century. Ernest Meritz Arndt, who accomplished so much toward the abolition of serfdom in Sweden and Prussia. “A little world within itself, of cultivated farms and storied hills, of rugged cliffs and bathing beaches, Rugen, soon to be united to the great world by modern engineering skill, still dreams away its Summer hours unmoved by approaching commerce.” YOUTH NEEDS VANITY, DECLARES SOCIOLOGIST Dr. Charles H. Cooley Says Trait Should Be Treated Ironi- cally, However. w Correspondence of ths Associated Press. ANN ARBOR, Mich.—Young men should not be ashamed of vanity, but should accept it as part of necessary human inheritance, believes Dr. Charles Horton Cooley, professor of soclology at the University of Michi- gan and president of the American Soelology Soclety. “Treat vanity somewhat ironically,” he suggests in his book ‘Life and the Student,’ “as though it were a slight- ly ridiculous member of your family. Much that passes as modesty is really vanity. Persons who dislike to talk about themselves refrain because it exposes them and awakens self-con- aolousness. “Affectation s pretending some- thing in order to impress others.

It was repeatedly hinted that the former Turkish capital had heen promised to Russia in 1914 in e of a victory by the allies and if the Sovicts played the game there was no reason why Creat Britain should object to the Soviets occupying Constantinople now. The result of an Italian-Turkish undoubtedly would be unfavor- wwkey and would lead to further dismemberment of the cqun- try. Under the circumstances Italy had Great do whatever she pleased regarding Turkey and if the Russians could get Constantinople, Great Britain would not _object. The situation now is changed.
