has assumed abnormal proportions. 1t
il; well known that StatictiCS may be
used to serve almost any end, and
especially is this true in the way they
lave been used to tell the story of the
railway accidents. We look with envy
at the accidents records of the rail
roads of various European countries,
fs pictured by the statistician. and for
get that there are very few accidents
common to European and American
roads The difference in percentage of
accidents does not lie in the equipment.
or roadbed or any mechanical or physi
cal aprurtenances. but rather in the
personal element. and it is this person
al element. which is responsible for the
large percentage of accidents accredit-
cd to our railways. The European is
too p1instaking and methodical to take
the chances with his life that the Am
crican does. The American does not
yield to discipline and absolute obedi
CnCe to rules. as does his European
nesghbor, hut asserts his particular

cnce is Evident in the way an American
will eros Sthe forbidden tracks, In

Miss Lcona J. Achorn of Belfast
spoke very Interestingly on "Bible
Study as Training in Literary Style"
r. r61 hn Gt,h in
inal way that was pleasing and in
structlve. "rhe English Bible has had
and still has an enormous influence on
the English language and literature. 1t
has set the standard and form for all
writing in English that has an ambi-
ton to belong to literature No one can
truly study the literature of the Bible
without being set face to face with it's
deepest religious truths. History con-
stitutes a large part of the Old and
New Testament. In the Old Tesla
ment there are two distinct kinds of
history. the priestly and the prophetic.
The priestly is represented by Chroni-
cles. Ezra and Nehemiah. and is char
acterized by the annalistic style, be-
ing destitute of imagination and artis-
tic sense; while the prophetic is de-
scriptive style Astounding in magma
ton. In the New Testament the three
great discourses of Jesus and His para
bles present us oratory and the epistles
may be regarded as the third form of
prose literature. The simplicity and
naturalncss OF our modern literature
will seem slipshod to the people two or
three generations hence, yet in all this
incessant change of tastes and fash
