AFRICAN EXPLORERS
FIND A NEW GOSPEL
Hitherto Unknown UtteranceS
Of Jesus on
PapyruS

BOSTON, Aug. IA new Gospel Of
Christ, containing many utterances Of
Jesus which are today unknown TO the
world, is believed TO have been discov-
cred through the work Of the Egyp-
tian Exploration Fund in it's North At
rican work. So many Of the newly
found sayings of Jesus have already
come to light, according to an official
announcement issued from the Boston
Headquarters of the fund, that the
idea of another Gospel which may
mirror the great leader Of men In a
new light, now receives much cre-
dence.
In this work in Egypt enough an
cient writings relative TO the Egyp-
tians and Romans has been dug up to
] furnish material for 20 large printed
volumes. Although only about two
flfths of the translation work has been
completed, many OF these new sayings
of the Great Master have been found.
Many More Sayings.
Prof Bernard p. Greenfell and Prof.
Arthur S. Hunt, who are at present
engaged in the work of translating
and issuing volumes from time to time
dealing with their work have express
ed confidence that many more such
sayings of Christ may be reasonably
expected from the mass of recovered
papyrus emaining-probably suff-
cient to constitute a complete new
Gospel. One of the translations of
purported sayings Of Christ just Issued
by Greenfell and Hunt is under the
title of Fragments of an Uncanonical
Gospel from Oxyrhyuchus."
The bulk of the fragment is con-
cerned with a conversation between
Jesus and a chief priest which takes
place in the Temple of Jerusalem, the
episode of which is of a dramatic char
acter, being reserved almost complete,
according to the translators.
1T is preceded" they say, "by the
close of a speech OF Jesus to His Dis
ciples, exhorting them to avoid the ex-
ample OF certain wrongdoers and
warning them of the penalties which
await the latter men both in this world
and the next,
Passage Not Clear.
what particular class is referred TO
in this passage Is not clear. Jesus, who
throughout the fragment is called sim
ply The Saviour then takes His Dis
ciples with Him inside the temple 10
the place of publication, by which the
author of Gospel perhaps meant the
Court Of the Men OF Israel, though
how far the use Of this term is legiti-
mate is doubtful.
"They are met by a chief priest, who
Is also a Pharisee, but whose name Is
uncertain. The chief priest reproaches
them for having neglected TO perform
the necessary ceremonies of ablution
and change of garments before enter
ing the holy place and looking upon
the sacred vessels.
"6hort dialogue ensues, In which
Jesus asks the chief priest II he Is
pure, and he answers, recounting the
| different purihcatory rites which he
had himself observed. To this Jesus
delivers an eloquent end crushing re-
ply, contrasting outward and inward
purity, the external bathing described
BY the Hebrew Ritual with the inward
cleansing which He and His followers
had received In the waters OF eternal
life. Before the close OF the speech is
reached the fragment breaks on.

HOME AND MOTHER
M. c. Robbins.

There is a spot on earth to me most
dear,
The dearest place Of all;
When weary, there find the sweetest
rest,
Heavens benedictions there around
me fall.
For mothers always waiting at the
door,
With words of consolation and of
cheer;
And If you search the wide world
DER and Ger,
You'll find no friend like mother
none so dear.
She helps you bear your burdens all
the way,
She soothes you when in sorrow or in
pain;
She makes the crooked paths grow
bright and straight,
And brings the sunlight to your life
again.
And so, no matter where on earth you
roam,
Amid the greatest glory earth can
give,
You'll never find the peace, the rest
the love
That mother dear and home sweet
home can give.
I've crossed the seas and gazed upon
the works
The greatest artists of the world
produce;
I've sought for rest, for fame, foi
happiness,
But after all l found it was no use.
/ sought for It at fashions gay levee
l thought the dance and music would
me cheer,
But all its brightness turned to asheI
on my lips,
My heart would long for home anI
mother dear.
In fancy can see the dear old place
The old well-sweep the trees upon thu
lawn;
Where she and l would sit beneatl
their shade
And hear the birds sing in the earl,
morn.
When evening shades would fall upoi
us there,
She blessed me as / knelt down a
her feet,
And the "our Father" she would teacl
her child,
In gentle accents-oh so low an,
sweet.
Mother has long since entered int,
rest,
But I can feel each day her gentl
power,
She taught me to be strong and brav
and true,
To lean upon her God in life's darl
hour.
Fortune has smiled on me along tn
way,
And to me earth's broad acres hav
been given;
But nothing to my heart can brin
the peace,
Like the sweet thoughts Of mother
home and Heaven.

are five Thursdays in November. None
Of the Almanacs that were referred to
yesterday said that the holiday falls
on the last Thursday, and this is what
caused the discussion to go on with

The calendars show November 30

guess that the calendar makers were
pretty sure Of their ground. but even
calendar makers are not infallible.

whether the fourth or the fifth Thurs
