Old and New Church Music.

At last one of the great evangelical
churches has discarded the old mis-
sionary hymn, From Greenlands Icy
Mountains" from its latest hymnal
Yet paradoxical as this may seem, It
yet is scarcely more radical than the
embargo long ago levied upon other
old hymns of similar fitness and in
spring power. Gradually the
church is supplanting the old.
time hymns with new songs and
style of music that is called
classic--anthems, sung by paid sing
ers. But who that has felt the in
spiration of From Greenland's Icy
Mountains to midas Coral Strand
will deny that its words and it's music
are not typically missionary and most
suited for use in this age of aggressive
missionary enterprise? Instead of dis
carding this old slogan of religious
propaganda 1t would seem that the
church would be devising ways of in
creasing its popularity, for what bet
ter expresses. or could better express,
the spirit of the missionary zeal that
has today crystallized into the for

There has always been a question as
to the superiority Of latter-day church
music over that of the yesterdays. For
deep piety and soul-stirring expression
1t is seriously to be doubted II the new
can half compare with the old. There
was depth of meaning in those old
songs. which some of the newer ones

One of Florence's Jokes.

That genial comedian ". }. Florence
had habit OF promising n man fish
or some game when he was about
starting on hunting or fishing trip
Day after day would pass. and the
game would not be forthcoming. But
almost every day letter or telegram
would come saying that Florence had
not forgotten; that Florence was just
about sending the game; that there
was no cause for worry, as fine fish
or deer was on its way to the express
office. At first this solicitousnesS
would cause courteous letters aud tele-
grams in return. AS the delay got
longer the victim would get impatient
and would finally be literally haunted
by huge fishes or deer. with the com
pliments of w j. Florence" Then
some fine day. when it was least ex-
pected. the fish or deer would come.

The Brooches Bible.

One of the books which biblioma-
MAC handles reverently is the famous
Geneva Bible. better known as the
"Breeches Bible" This name is due
to the rendering of Genesis iii. {.
where Adam and Eve are said TO have
'sewed fig tree leaves together and
made themselves brooches" This had
been the reading of the first English
Bible. Wycliffe's version. but later
translators had substituted the word
apron" for "breeches,' and the Gene
va Bible reverted TO the original The
fact that only one edition of the Gene
va version contained this sentence
makes the limited number more pre-.
cious to the book gatherer. The title
page Of this edition announces that II
was Imprinted at London by the dep
uties OF the queene'S most excellent
majestic" in 1899. The first edition
appeared in 1860 and for sixty years
this was the favorite Bible with the
people, who reluctantly laid it aside
for the authorized version in 1911.

good care. however, to leave the room
at the earliest opportunity and to

where he had an emetic in readiness
and an antidote. But the jury never
heard about the emetic or the anti
dote until the lawyers client had been

still is the following verse:
