OUT OF DEBT.

Jas. Phillips, treasurer Of the En-
meitsville school district has received
the last one Of the interest bearing bonds
that were issued by the district in 1885
for the purpose Of building the present
school house. and the district is now out
of debt. When the next state appor-
tionment is received. enough money will
be in the treasury to liquidate the ex-
penses Of the present six months term
Of school. and Mr.. Phillips favors ex-
tending the term 10 eight msnths. This
will only incur an extra expense Of 500
on the district and to do this and hold
a nine month term next year with the
high school room added will not require
as heavy a levy as the last was Our
school is something that every citizen
should be proud of and the INDEX hopes
and believes that every one will favor
the extra two months Of school.

1t Makes Some Men Tired.

Who Has the Biggest Bibleq

There is controversy Of small practical
Importance, interesting from purely lit
erary point Of view-namely, which reli-
gion possesses the largest Bible. The rab-
bis, with wonderful patience, have ascer-
tanned, by actual counting, that the Old
Testament in Hebrew contains 693, 493
words, 2, 1913, 100 letters and 1924 verses.
Christian Students with even greater pa
thence, have ascertained that tho Bible in
the authorized version contains 1850
words, 8, $50, 4S9 letters and 81, 173 verses.
The results Of these labors, though inter-
esting and curious, are comparatively
small. For instance, 1t has been found out
that verse 8 Of Psalm cxyiii forms the oen-
ter Of the whole Bible; that verse 81 Of
chapter vii of Ezra contains all the letters
of the English alphabet except f; that II
Kings, chapter xix, is identically the same
as Isaiah, chapter xvii; that the word
lord" OCCURS 1866 times, the word srev-
erend" but once, the word land" 46,277
times.
The Rig-veda, tho Oldest Of all sacred
books, contains about 10, 500 verses and
1B8. 826 words. The Avesta, such as we
now possess 1t, claims 70, O90 words. What
must strike every one In these statistical
researches Is the great amount Of repeti-
ton In oil the sacred books For instance,
although the number Of words in the Old
Testament is estimated at 500, 49S, the
words occurring in dictionary Of the Old
Testament would amount to no moro than
about 6,642; SO that, on ali average, every
word Ii used 100 times. From Max Null
lsr's Lecture at Oxford Academy.
