Really Good Writers Need Not Fear
Discrimination
The rush OF the crowd to read
book which may have no literary merit
or vitality, either OF material or Of
presentation, simply because 1t is
talked - out, is never wholesome, and
If the crowd has grown more critical
and clear-minded in its judgments,
and has ceased to move upon sudden
impulses and learned to decide for
itself, the loss will fall, not on writers
OF real merit, but on a few whose re-
wards we're generally beyond their
deserts The average of literary work
in tais country In many depar tments
Is high. If great books are not pro-
duced in large numbers, good books
are produced in very considerable
numbers, and in soundness of knowl-
edge, in good taste and literary work
manship, great advance is evident
over the work of an earlier generation.
1t is a period Of quiet progress, time
OF preparation rather than a time of

schools with the best practical results.
Solomon did the very thing he admonished
others not to do. He told the truth. He gave
his soul for an apple of sodom. Out of the pit
In which he fell comes ringing his despairins
vanity of vanities!'
Whether Solomon was finally lost saved
is a question about which there be no end
OF "doting." There Is not sufficient data In the
Scriptures TO determine. In the curious fresco
in the Campo santo at. Pisa he is represented
as rising from his grave and standing In pitiful
confusion. as IL doubling which side OF the
Judgment throne TO stand.
The question why a man of such impure char
acter should be permitted TO contribute to the
Holy Scriptures Is troublesome. Arnot answers
II best: 1T is certain that. In the main. the
vessels which the Spirit used were sanctined
vessels But the diversity in all its extent Is
like all the other ways OF God. X all the
writer's Of the Bible had been perfect in hoi-
ness it is certain that 1t would not have served
all the purposes which IL serves among
men, 1t would have been God-iike. indeed. but
1t would not have reached down TO the low
