of Maryland New York Pennsylvania,
the District of Columbia, North and South

Making Long Island Sound I'M
pregnable:
COZ f. v Abbot, assistant to the chief
of engineers who recently returned from
an inspection trip to the Philippines in
connection with insular defenses says that
the completed projects at the eastern en-
trance of Long Island sound will rival
those Of Gibraltar in importance Col.
Abbot says:
THE original idea was to close the en-
trance 10 New York at Throgs Neck and
Wirets Point where we have practically
an inner line of defenses. Fort Schuyler
and Fort Totten. As the cities on the
shores Of Long Island sound became more
and more important with the lapse OF
time the board OF engineers decided that
II was advisable to throw out an outer
line Of defcuses near the eastern entrance
of Long Island sound, not with the idea
Of entirely excluding a fleet, but WITH the
idea OF making Its passage RISKY, so 'llat
those smaller cities would not be liable 10

Of New York city itself
''-Th,zlatcst idea since that board or en-
ciucers reported. as brought out by the
Taft board. is that we must absolutely oe-
fend the whole Of Long Island sound be
cause the territory has become so 1nuch
more valuable than ii was twenty, years
;yo That eastern end Is the place tAat

value OF the cities upon the sound mas
made f. a necessity to, convert what was

interest to Middlebury people Its title
is The Christian Faith and the Old
Testament" and the author is President
elect John NJ. Thomas of Middlebury
College. Doctor Thomas, who is char
acterized by the New York INDEPEND-
ENT as lone of our profoundest and
cleartst scholars in Biblical criticism"
presents here, i'll Il most untechnical and
interesting way, a statement us to Chris
tianity's gains AMI LOSSES from the inclu-
sion of Hebrew writings in the Christian
Bible, and an illustration of few of the
practical consequences of the newer
views concerning the Old Testament
In the words of the preface, attempt i
made to show why many readers find it
difficult to grasp the message of that
Testament and to present the salient
facts of the modern understanding of
the book, which has opened anew the
eyes of many to. its beauty and its power.
That the author has been notably success
full in this attempt, a reading of the book
makes evident. While all of the chap
tiers we'll repay reading, the one setting
forth the five points of Old Testament
criticism should prove especially helpful
to those seeking for clear, concise, re.

Not every good singer can sing ballads
well. They come from the heart of the
people, and heart power is needed for
their Interpretation. 1t is this sympa-
thetic feeling that makes Mr.. Frederick

plains the reputation that his work has
everywhere brought him. lie has sung
in Middlebury twice before and with
great acceptance, but next Tuesday
evening he will give for the first time to
a Middlebury audience his Scottish
Songs and Singers, which many regard
as the finest of his efforts. If he is lis
tened to by such numbers as his powers
to entertain deserve, the Congregational
church will be filled that night, and it is
safe to say that none will be disappoint-
ed. 1t is not often that more of genuine
enjoyment is offered for twenty-five
