Biblical Ignorance Among
College Students Alarming

In the issue of the New York In
dependent of July p, Mr.. Thomas
Ernest Rankin, assistant professor of
Rhetoric in the University of Michi-
gan writes most interesting article
on the biblical ignorance of College
students" He thinks that there is a
lamentable lack of knowledge of the
Sacred Scriptures among the students
in attendance upon state universities,
and that there is urgent need of ele-
mentary instruction in them. He bases
his contention upon a test made at
nected, in which a group of seventy
eight students in rhetoric were asked
number of questions relative to the
teachings of the Bible and were given
fifty-five minutes in which to answer
them. The full list of questions pro-
pounded and the responses made to
them are too long for us to quote, and
we can reproduce only few of the
more striking of them. OF course,
quite a number of them answered
some of the queries correctly, but it
is said that only one, the son of an
Episcopal clergyman, ventured to re-
ply to them all, and he was inaccurate
in some of his responses. Some of
the questions and the erroneous an
swers made to them were as follows:
In what languages was the Bible
originally written?
Hebrew" Greek" Hebrew and
Greek" "Hebrew-Greek." Hebrew
and Latin" Hebrew and Hellenistic
Greek" Hebrew and Arabic" HE
brew, Greek and Arabic" Arabic

German, Greek, French and Early
English; there were also originals in
Hebrew"

main divisions?

of the Bible would you look for 1.-THE
General epistle OF Jude?

tie of Jude would probably be found

In what city was solomon's Temple
located?

ing is one OF the worst charges that
can be brought against woman in
this line of work. The nurse needs
tact, sympathy, knowledge of human
nature, resourcetulness, ability to
think for herself. She must know how
to govern with kindness but firmness,
"The nurse needs conscience -

heard 1t called. The buffer and the

vocabulary. She must make her own

and live up to them to satisfy herself.

show up. but remained at his post of
duty during the day. Whether Griffin
repented of his raw action and called
Heber off, or whether Heber's nerve
failed him, we do not know. but both
