Its the story the greatest disasters in the history of the Virgin Islands yes, and its a lot more than that, too. Its the story of a heroic deed and a darned swell illustration of what the will to live will do for a man or a boy. Fellow Adventurers, let me introduce to you Harry Zielian of Brooklyn, the man who wanted to stay alive. And now lets get on with his story. It starts In St. Thomas on the Virgin islands in the year 1907, 10 Ive years before the United States acquired that territory from Denmark. Harry's father was a judge under the Danish government. He lived in St. John, but Harry and his brother Ed had gone with the local cricket team to play a match with the team of the St. Thomas high school and were returning on the sloop Sea GulL There were 21 people on the Sea Gull including the entire St John cricket team and a woman with four in the young children.

Harry was sitting at the stern, and he dived into the water as she went over. He called to his brother who had gone below a few minutes before the spinner struck but he got no answer. For a while he treaded water. As he did so he felt a small body rub against his and raised it to the surface. It was a little boy the son of the woman who had been aboard the Sea Gull with him. He was dead, and Harry let his body It was four miles to shore, and it would be a miracle if go again. Harry got there himself. r j Three Began the Long Swim. Four miles to shore In a raging gale. Yes, it would be a miracle if thlrteen-ycar-ol- d Harry Zielian made it. But Harry wanted to live. He turned toward land and began to swim. He had barely started when he saw his brother Ed and his pal. Jimmy, passing him. He called to them and told them not to swim so fast to save their energy if they ever expected to get ashore alive. Guided by the lighthouse at the entrance to the harbor of St. Thomas, they swam on. "For a while, he says, '"we could who were still afloat, but after an hour of the waves as the wind continued to for another hour, then Jimmy began to hear yells and erics from people all was still except for the break lash the sea to fury.

Then, suddenly they heard Louis calling 'Im going down," he shouted. "Ive got a cramp in my leg!" Fd and Harry swam to him One on each side, they held him up until the cramp had passed. Louis kept his head If he had lost it and fought them, all three would have gone down together After that they swam on again They were swimming in a daze, almost dead with fatigue. BUT THEY WANTED TO LIVE! More hours passed. They kept on swimming. At last they felt bottom under their feet and up on a sandy beach. It was then between two and three o'clock in the morning and they had been swimming for seven or eight hours. Exhausted, they dropped on the beach with the waves lapping their feet, and fell into a dead sleep. It was morning and the sun was shining brightly when Louis awakened the other two They walked up the beach m search of other survivors, but there were none. Then they walked to the cabin of a native woman who fed them and got a boat to take them home. There S a sequel to that story A month later the H M S Ingolf of the Danish navy steamed into the harbor, and shortly after that the officers of the ship were drawn up before Harry's home while Governor C M.

The greatest novel of a century, possibly of many centuries, Jean Christophe has been called by great critics and multitndea of lesser lights. It waa published in 1913. This writer has found few young persons, even those majoring In literature, who have read It. He has found others who have never heard of Romain Rolland, the Nobel peace prize winner exiled from his country, while Carl von Ossietsky, German Nobel peace prize winner, was Impoverished, jailed and harried to his death In There the same years between. is in this age swift obsolescence In the spiritual heritage as well as in machines. But another, even greater teacher, looking sadly down on the multitude from a hill In Jerusalem, was also unheeded: "How often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her But wings, and ye would not! neither He nor His teaching was altogether forgotten. There will also be those who will remember Romain Rolland. When he was exiled from France, vast sumi of money were offered him if he would go to America, to write and lecture. Publicity, or any form of selfexploitation, is to him distasteful. He withdrew to a secluded villa near Zurich, Switzerland. There is one definite attitude in all these post-wa- r writings.

He fought, and suffered, to arouse the world conscience, as the dying Tolstoi had enjoined him. He is a tall, spare, pallid old man, with thinning hair and sad, deep-se- t eyes as he returns to France 'at the age of seventy-two- . Educated in music, at the Ecole Normale, he became a devotee of Wagner, whose genius inspirited his life-t- hen of Tolstoi and Shakespeare. He has written many times in the last lew years that he sees little hope that the world will escape a last devastating war. COLDEN-i- t?, I.
