A habit a person can easily fall into
is that of keeping Others waiting. A
woman, whose home we thought was
run like clock, says that one member
of her family is never ready for the
meals. If anyone thinks this is not
annoying to the house.keeper, just
cook a meal once, put it on the table
and then find there is no one quite ready
to eat. It is more provoking than to
wait few minutes for the dinner not
quite prepared. Never keep others
waiting on any occasion and they will
think you are charming. And really
you are!

Cromwell Bible Next.

The next year, 1910, came the
"great" Bible, likewise called Crom-
wells, also Cranmer's. This was es-
sentially Coverdale's translation with
few changes. 1t was published by
Thomas Cromwell's order and was the
first Bible appointed to be used in
the churches" likewise the first to be
chained to the reading desks. No
wonder there was subsequent
movement for religious freedom when
the Bible was in chains
Twenty years after the publication
OF the great" Bible appeared the Gene
van translation made by some English
religious refugees who had joined John
Calvin at Geneva. This was the first
one printed in Roman type and divid-
ed into verses, likewise the first to
give supplied words in italics. IL re-
NAMED the most popular edition until
the appearance of the King James
version, a matter Of fifty years. To
collectors this is known as the "breecb-
es' Bible because of the following pas
sage from Genesis: ''Then the eyes Of
them both We're opened, and they knew
that they We're naked, and they sewed
dgge tree leaves together and made
themselves Breeches." Was this far
of suggestion of the trouserine or ha

Hard on jeremiah.

Not to be outdone by the Protestants,
the Catholics undertook a new transla-
ton I'm 1880, which was finally given
to the world in 1909. This is known
as the "Douai" Bible, so named from
the press that printed ii. The trans
lation was made by English exiles at
Rheims, France. Collectors call 1t the
"rosin" Bible because of another atroc-
ity put over on Jeremiah's balm. This
translation has it, as there no rosin
in Gilead?"
Having finished the preliminaries, we
now come to the main event. Why
God in his wisdom ever permitted any
thing so altogether admirable as the
authorized English version of the BIZ
BILE to be called by the name of so
worthless a monarch as King James is
more than mere mortal man can ever
hope to understand. 1t is one of those
tricks of fate which confound the op-
timist and shake the faith of those
who believe in ultimate justice.

TRANSACTIONS Were Numerous.

There had been several English
translations of the Bible prior to the
King James or authorized version,
but none of them had been quite sat
isfactory. The first of these worth
mention was the Wycliffe Bible, trans
lated by John Wycliffe, the original
English reformer and martyr, in the
fourteenth century and circulated in
manuscript. William Tyndale, anoth-
er reformer and martyr, followed this
with another translation in the six
teenth century. 1t is somewhat sig
nificant that both of these translators
were counted heretics, and not the
least of the charges against them was
this very desire to give the Scriptures
to the common people. Tyndale was
prescribed and went to live at Worms
with Luther, whose follower he was.
There his translation was completed
The Tyndale Bible became in large
degree the basis of subsequent Eng
fish versions. 1t was published in
1926, and during the same century six
other translations were made and a
seventh begun. Inc re1ormatlOn was
bearing abundant fruit.
The next translation after Tyndale's
was that of Miles Coverdale, which ap-
peared in 1886. 1t has been claimed
that Coverdale worked with Tyndale.
but this is in dispute. In popular
parlance the Coverdale version has
come to be known as the bug" Bible
because of the following translation
of a verse from one of the Psalms:
$50 that thou shalt not nede to be
afraid for any Bugges by nighte nor
for the arrow that fyeth by day"
The Matthews Bible followed in
1887. 1t was translated by John Rog>
ers, another Protestant martyr. The
Taverner Bible, named for one of its
publishers, Richard Taverner, appear
| ed in 1889.

WASTED ENERGY


Somebody said once that the
only really wicked thing in the
world was wasted~energy.
A steeplejack recently took a
risky jump which would have
meant fall of $50 feet to death
if he missed the landing, and he
did it just to prove that he was
smarter than another "jack."
Mrs. Clerk Brown spends three
hours trying to figure out how
she can save money enough from
her house allowance to buy a will
low plume like the one Mrs.
Banker Pettijohn wears. Mr..
Teeter-Tooter wastes an hour ex-
planning to his wife where he was
last night, when he knows that
she knows all the time
The automobiles would out
speed his neighbor at the risk of
his own and others lives; the
aeroplanist would soar higher
than birds, in face of almost GER
tain death the strong man would
lift a greater weight than his fell
low man; the acrobat would at
tempt a more exciting and dan
gerous stunt than his rival dares.
If all the uselessly expended
mental and physical energy in the
world could be gathered together
and used for the betterment of
the world, all the ''isms" and colo
gies" could go out of business.
