NEW. ORLEANS. - Christopher
Columbus. who sailed beyond the
blue' rim of the world to discovgg
thing more than a great adven-
turer. He also was considerable of
s. sheik.
The grissled old navigator, paint—
ed for centuries as a dour man of
gloom and shedows', in reality was
a romantic stroilr- who twanged a
guitar under the sleepy moon of old
Castilo as ardentiy as any youthful
hero out of an old-fashioned novel.
This new light on the old explor-
er is given by Professor Rudolph
Schulior. urinean linguist and
ethnologics. ssvsnt. who came to
this country to examine early
American data in the library or Tu-
lane University.
The romance of Columbus, hither-
to known only to delvers in musty
old libraries. is made public by Prof.
Schullcr.
In Old Seville.
Columbus. burning with the idea
of s. new route to the famed spice
islands of Asia. was cooling his heels
impatiently in old Seville, living on
the bounty of King Ferdinand and
waiting for Queen Isabella to make
thet‘famous call on the pawnbroker
that would launch Columbus on his
voyage of discovery.
It was Easter Week. and Seville
was a city of pageanti'y. with street
processions and fiower-bedecked
doets brilliant with all tic color of
the church’s brightest festival.
Columbus mingled nl‘htly in the gay
throngs on the streets.
One night he was strolling aim-
lessly dawn a side street. dreaming
of the strange. perilous Journey that
lay before him. Suddenly he Jumped
back. What had been thrown at
him?!“ A dagger? No. There had
been no clash of steel 0n the pave-
ment. He stopped. It was a rose.
Columbus looked up. A lscn man.
tiila floated in the dusk on the iron
balcony of a house beside him. A
woman. hidden in t‘ ~ shadows.
laughed softly. She held a fan be-
fore her face. Columbus fell in love
without even seeing her face.
Serenades by Moonlight.
More nights came—nights when
Columbus. in true Spanish style.
took a guitar and strummed eroon.
ing love songs beneath the balcony
of old Seville. And one night the
fan was removed from before the
face of the women above him. and
he saw the beautiful Done Beatrix
Enrique of Cordova. smiling down
at him. . And then there came
s night when the barred door hI-low
the balcony swung open. . .
A son was born to Done Beatriz
Enrique. proud lady of Castile. and
Christopher Columbus. lielisn ud-
venturer seeking his fortune in a
strange lend. And then Columbus
went to Palos and sail d beysnd the
sunset to everlasting
Sometimes great men's sons are
lost in the obscurity of history. But
not so in this case. The boy. named'
Fernando. can be traced to a posi-
tion of note. As a youngster he ac-
“—nights when Columbus. in true Spanish style. took a guitar and
strummed crooning love songs beneath a balcony of old Seville."
companied Columbus on one of hislsianee, that the school histories are
late voyages to the New World—
the<strenge New World that Colum-
bus, to the day of his death. thought
was only an outlying part of Asia.
Then Fernando entered the priest-
hood. And finally we find him ea-
teblishing the world famous library
at Seville-for centuries one of the
centers of European learning.
Made Other Discoveries.
That is the story that Professor
Schuller reveals about Columbus.
The professor has made other dis-
coveries about the famous old ex-
plorer. too. He has shown. for in-
mistnken when they my that Colum-
bus' crews were recruited from Julia
and aimshouscs—the offscourings of
the water front. 0n the contrary.
he says. they were the pick of
Spain's seamen, chosen as carefully
as were the crews of Amundsen and
Peary.
in the library of Tulane Univer-
sity. Prof. Schulier has discovered”
a facsimile illustration of the sig-
nniure and handwriting of Colum-
bus. He has shown, that the cost
of the first voyage of discovery was
$5.000.

Why Stiff Shoes
for your
Flexible Feet?
UST notice how readily
your bare foot bends at
every joint and how freely
the muscles flex and stretch
in walking. ,
Not much stiflness there!
The body couldn’t live
without this flexible shock-
absorber.
The marvelous resilience
of the three main arches
of the foot enables this
delicate structure to spring-
ily carry the whole weight
of the body and to absorb
the constant jars of walk-
ing.
In the Cantilever Shoe,
the shank (or arch) is en-
tirely of flexible leather.
There is no concealed metal.
It permits the foot arches
to flex as Nature intends.
The flexible Cantilever al-
lows natural exercise of the
foot muscles, preventing or
correcting “ weak arches.”
The refreshing ease of the
CANTILEVER
SHOE
(For Men, Women and
Children
is due to its being designed
along anatomical lines and
constructed to m cat the
rds of the foot. A stylish,
ll made shoe.
