80 years ago today - Sep 18, 1937

A Deseret News Church Section full-page article "The Eleusinian Mysteries," which continues as another full-page article on 25 Sept. This is 100 years since an LDS periodical at church headquarters first described the Eleusinian Mysteries. Through 23 Oct. there are weekly full-page discussions of "The Mysteries of Bacchus" in two parts, "Orphic Reincarnation," and finally "The Mysteries Of The Great Mother."
