Perhaps it was the late Aly Khan's hectic love life, w,,ith its Manly affairs and divorces, which bas rmade Karlus determinied ta be right first time.

He soon became an expert okier, and ilest winter w a rsemnber of the British ski team. It was not tuntil 1960 that the new Imnam visited his people, the Ismaili Moslemis, who are a pros- perous minority lu Africa, Asia and the Midle East. Ir, many ways, they expressed their ador- etion. It has been salé of the yauth- lu] Karimr that bis heart is ùn thse heavens, but bis feet are on th ground. He is dediceted ta bettering his people's position in in this wold, while tending spe- ,iically ta their spiritual needs. Saap and wvater, medicine, beds, peace are the bases of his termons - if sermons they are. Theologicaiiy, tise Imamn is not ok god. Buit the biood o!
