Clark said: "Be the way, Ward, there
is a glass man in town, a friend OF
yours, George Packham. He is going
to Columbia to expose lot OF rot

no good that Mr.. Ward had taken ad-
vantage of a few remarks Clarke had
made and that if Mr.. Ward insisted
that Clarke had said that Packham
had said thus and so it was damn,

BIBLE NOT THE WORD OF GOD
Bishop Williams of the Episcopal

THE Bible and the Word of God" de-
cIared that the Bible was not the word
of God, and that the teachings TO the
contrary are the most prolific source of
unbelief the church has to contend
with.
The bishop said:
Nowhere does the Bible declare it
self the word of God. Yet we are told
we must take it in it's entirety. 1t is a
venerable book, and visitors are re-
quested not to touch it. AS it is the
direct word of God, there is no other.
Take the young man just out of
college. He reads Genesis and finds
impossible geology, astronomy and
ethnology. His teacher, when uues-
toned, says: Manipulate it until it fits
your sciences If too honest to handle
the word of God craftily, the young
man gives up the Bible. He refuses to
stultify his reason
THE Bible needs no defense; all It
needs is a square deal. There are those
who read it devoutly, diligently But
l never say the Bible is the word OF
God. To those who accept the entire
book as the literal word of God, /
would point out that it is nowhere so
stated. Christ tore asunder the Old
Testament rrecepts, the law of Moses,
and furnished new ones Where the
Old Testament directed men to hate
their enemies, the teachings of Christ
were to love your enemies.
We must learn from the scriptures
itself how to read the scriptures. Some
or us use it as a heather does his fetish
or amulet-a wicked use of the book
