a small Jet Of flaming hydrogen into a
vessel Of liquid Oxygen, the hydrogen
continued to burn, giving off snow in

by the instantaneous freezing Of the

the burning hydrogen with the oxygen
enclosing it. When he cooled liquid

he could draw the oxygen out Of the

JEFFERSON'S BIBLICAL STUD
les.

There seems to be a considerable
misunderstanding, or rather lack of
understanding, as to the exact char
acter of the compilation from the
New Testament made by Thomas
Jefferson, third President ofthe Uni
ted States, and which the House of
Representatives recently voted to
publish at the expense ofthe govern
medt. Several Well-knoWn clergy
men have alreany uttered protests
against such publication, and the
a formal remonstrance to Congress.
Contrary to what some of the dis
patches from Washington have said,
what has been called "~Jefferson's
Bible" is not identical with the in
complete work entitled "The Life
and Morals of Jesus.o The former
title was first applied to a scrap-book
prepared by Jefferson about the year
1916, which, in a letter to Charles
Thomson, he styled the PHILOSOPHY
of Jesus"-"a paradigma of his doc
trines, made by cutting the texts out
of the book and arranging them in a
certain order of time or subject.''
This exercise, it may be noted, was
a favorite one of that day, and ex-
cept for the character and remark
able ability of the man, it is not to
be supposed that the compilation in
question possesses any original value
more than any other. But to hold
that there is anything about it that
is antagonistic to religion does not
seem to be fully warranted. Jefferson
himself wrote of it: ga more beau
have never seen; 1t is a document in
proof that / am a real Christian, that
is to say, a disciple Of the doctrines
of Jesus, very different from the
Platonists, who call me infdel and
themselves Christians.o In a letter
to Benjamin Waterhouse in 1922 he
said: '"Fhe doctrines of Jesus are
simple and tend all to the happiness
of man,
Persuaded by the admirers of his
religious opinions, Jefferson, late in
life, began a work which he called
sEThe Life and Morals of Jesus of
NAZARETH" which was intended to
be a more harmonious and complete
synthesis of the four gospels thanthe
earlier compilation, but il was never
carried beyond a synopsis ofits pro-
posed contents. The view which it
took of the subject may be judged
from a letter to Benjamin Rush,
written as early as April 81, 1903,
and from a syllabus of the doctrines
of Jesus, also sent the latter. E'To
the corruptions of Christianity" said
Jefferson, 81 am indeed o%pposed;but
not the genuine precepts of Jesus
himself" And again; 'sHis system
of morality was the most benevolent
and sublime probably that has ever
been taught, and consequently more
perfect than those of any of the an
cient philosophers"
It does not seem that either great
good or great harm to any one can
come from the publication Of Jefer-
sons Biblical scrap-book, or indeed
of his synopsis of "The Life and
| Morals of Jesus" Neither is there
| any urgent reason why Congress or
the government should undertake
their publication.
