NEW VERSION OF THE DlBLE

Now Being Made Under the AUS
pieces of American Jews.
A new translation of the scriptures
Is being prepared under the joint aus
pices OF the Jewish Publication So
ciety OF America and the Central Con-
ference of America Rabbits. says the
New York sun. In response to many
Inquiries they have issued n statement
Of the methods they propose to fol
low.
According to the statement, the new
translation aims Mt conserving tho
form which the scriptures have as
sumed In the English tongue through
the two great historical versions-the
authorized Of 1911 and the revised Of
lSS4-but In a more particular man
ner and above all it purposes to adhere
faithfully to the form In which the
synagogue has handed down the orig
inal text.
From the point of view Of its ffdei-
ity to the English versions 1t does not
lay claim to being a new translation,
but merely Il revision of Its predeces-
sors. It Is an interesting act In the
history of Bible translations that once
q translation had been put forth there
was little attempt at creating in tHht
particular tongue an absolutely novel
translation; the Old translation was
always subjected to revision.
"Thus Aquila and Symmachus and
Theodotion revised the older Greek
20 rS1atinn nf tho GayantV thn Vn1CutH
represents a rerasting of the old Latin
translation a%ntedating jerome, and
cur own authorized version was a re-
vision of TyndHle's version and Of
others. All TRANSACTIONS seem to share
in the sacredncss OF the original they
become sacred through the religious
associations.
I'm the case of the older English
version it is well known how 1t has
become an English classic. part and
parcel Of the great English literature ;
Its phraseology has entered the very
English language and cannot he sew
cred therefrom with impunity. Hence
it is that the new translation will rot
attempt to discard familiar phrases
unless in the Judgment of the editors
they fail to do justice to the Hebrew
original. Even in such cases the IA
miliar renderings will be recorded In
the margin.
"Nor will there be any attempt at
undermining the diction. Biblical
English has a ring and a force which
up-to-date language cannot equal.
The quaintness Of the English Bible is
a charm that must not be sacrificed to
an exaggerated desire for intelligibil'
ity. The errors of translation must
at all hazards be corrected absolute
ly unintellisible or misleading words
must be discarded, but care must be
taken to preserve the beauty of the
biblical English, for the English Bible
as n classic IS dear to all English
speaking men, Jews or Christians"

Prof. A. l.. Lowell, the new presi-

recent lectures and smiled.
"That governmental difficulty he
said, was great-as great as the diff
1culty of Lincoln's farm hand Two
farm hands. Lincoln used to say, were
set upon by a huge bull while crossing
q rocky field. One managed TO gain a
tree. The other took refuge in a hole
that proved to have an exit in the
rear.
1.-THE man who had chosen the hole
was no sooner in at one end than ht
was out at the other. With q below
the bull made for him. He turned and
again shot like lightning through the
hole. The bull once more bore down
upon him, and once more he was In
and out Of his hole. This strange pur
suit kept up some 10 minutes or more
At first it mystifed the farm hand w
In the tree. Then 1t Angered him.
"'Hey.' he shouted, we DANCED min
compop, why don't We stay In the

"The bull was dashihg from one end
of the hole TO the other at great speed,
and the man was bobbing in and out
desperately. He heard. however, his
comrades shout, and found time be
fore his next brief disappearance to
shout back:
"'Danged nincompoop, yerself

TROUBLES OF A PARTISAN.
Warrington Lad's Sad Fate in .
Political StruKWI


To maintain allegiance to Il politi-
cal party in the face of an overwhelm-
ing majority, backed by force of arms,
requires a -sturdiness Of conviction I'M
usual in this day and generation. Such
a thought Is impressed firmly upon
the mind of the ~1O-year-old nephew Of
Nelson Conrad, chief inspector Of the
Washington health department.
Mr.. Conrad's small relative engaged
actively in the recent campaign, which
waged with force and vigor in the JEFF
ferson school, and which resulted in
the election of the peerless leader by
a majority exceeding the expectations
of his s]taunchest supporters.
The boys own inclination was to-
ward the Democratic candidate, but
his father is a Republican and, yield
ing to parental solicitation, he deposit
ed on the day Of election a ballot for
Taft
This fact was not only discovered,
but deeply resented by the Democratic
voters, and after school they proceeded
to impress upon Mr.. Conrad's nephew
the error of his way. His appearance
upon his return to the bosom Of his
family was such a to cause deep ON
cern to his loving parents.
II didn't have a chance" the lad ex-
planned In answer to anxious inquiries.
"Most all the boys in my DON are
Democrats. They knocked me down
and then sat on me and told me how
much better 1t would be for me II /
was a Democrat. It's all right, dad,
to be a Republican, but after what 1
got l don't believe I ought to go around
hollering about It"
And his father agreed with him.

Merle Dean, cashier of the Farmers
State bank, is back on duty after his
vacation which vas enjoyed in COM
pany with Mrs. Dean. They started
out in their auto and travelled where
fancy led, visiting friends and re-
latives in various towns and had q
splendid time.
John r. Pelley was down from Sioux
Falls last week visiting his son Harry

G. r. Kluger, the jeweler. 1860 Vir-
ginia Ave-, Indianapolis, Ind. writes:

my backache and the Irregularities
disappeared, and l can now attend to
business every day and recommend
Foley's Kidney Remedy to all suf-
ferers, as it cured me after the doc

We publish this week a very in
teresting letter from Thorsten
Hotter describing his travels in Nor
way. He was one of the Nordlie-
Hustel-Gubbrud party that spent the
summer in the old country. He de-
scribes the home Of his mother and of
the interesting things he found there
and Of a relic he is bringing home
with him in memory of her child
hood days. He returned to New York
with his Lincoln county companions
where he stopped for a few days to
see the sights in that big city. Had
he came straight through to Canton
he would lot have been in time to
see his mother alive as she died the
same day in Lyman county that his
companions reached Canton. The
news of his mothers death will be a
blow as he had anticipated
much pleasure in telling her of the
home of her childhood and how it
looks. 1t will be a sad, sad home
coming. He wrote the LEADER from
New York that he would visit
Niagara Falls, Minneapolis, Fargo
and BowGon in North Dakota before
coming to Canton. We publish his
in full and all will find it
worth reading, in fact it is the most
interesting letter we have ever pub
liShed about Norway.
