WorId't Seven Bibles

The world has seven Bibles. They are
the Koran, of the Mohammedans; the
Eddas, of the Scandinavians; the Trip
itaka. of the Buddhists; the Five Kings,
of the Chinese; the Three Vedas, OF the
Hindoos; the Zend Avesta, OF the Per.
slams and the Scriptures of the Christians.
The Koran is not older than the sew
enth century of our era. 1t is com.
pound ofquotationf from the Old and New
Testaments, the Talmud and the Gospel
of ST Barnabas. The Eddas OF the
Scandinavians were published IN the II tn
century, and are the most recent of the
seven Bibles. The Buddhists' Tripataka
contains sublime morals and pure inspi.
rations. Their author lived and died in
the seventh century before Christ.
The sacred writings of the Chinese are
called the Five Kings, king meaning
web or cloth or the warp that keeps the
threads in their places. They contain
the choicest sayings OF the best ages on
ethopoetic duties of life. These say.
ings cannot be traced to period higher
than the l 1th century. b. Z. The Three
Vedas are the most ancient books OF the
Hindoos, and it is the opinion of the
great scholars that they are older than
the 18th century, B. {.
The Zendavesta of the Persians is the
grandest of all sacred books, next to the
Bible. Zoroaster. whose sayings it con-
tains, was born in the 18th century, b.

First Normal School In Vermont

To Concord Corner belongs the dis
tinciion of being the first town in Amer
lea to have Normal school, says The st.
Johnsbury Caledonian. In this little and
remote corner of New England, in 1928.
nearly score of years before the Massa-
chusetts movement for training teachers
was inaugurated, the Rev. S. r. Hall
established school whose special mis-
sion was the elevation of the common
school was by improving the character
of the teachers. The school building
erected in 1S23,is the frontispiece of Supt.
Mason S. Stones annual report.
The historic building was of brick
30 x 40 feet and was located on the low
ground across the road from the church
where DR.. Hall preached. He was called
to the Congregational church at Concord
Corner early in the year 1928 and accepted
the passionate on the condition that he be
allowed to open teachers school,"
He continued the school seven years, adj
hitting in addition to those fitting them
selves for teachers, class of children,
which he used in instruction and disci-
| pine, as a model and practice school.
Mr.. Hall died in Bloomington, June "a,
1877, aged SO. In addition to his min .
terial work in Concord, he preached i'll
Craftsbury and Browington for sever
al years and supplied az CRANKY and
Victory two years. He also published a
number of volumes on educational work
in New Hampshire number of years.
Quoting from Mr.. Stones report:
"Mr Hall is the American Hecker-the
pioneer in the work which most distin-
cuisines recent from early schooling in
the United States. To him undoubtedly
belongs the credit of being the father of
Normal schools in america"
The school was incorporated in 1925
by act of the legislature and was made
a county grammar school so as to receive
the rents arising from the grammar
school lands in Concord. 1t was after
ward known as the Essex county gram.
mar school. A course of study was ar
ranged and teachers classes formed dur
ing the first year, but during the second
regular normal course was instituted.
Lectures on school keeping, were given
to illustrate the improved methods of
teaching and discipline. A volume of
these lectures published IN 1929 was the
the first attempt of this kind on the
western continent, if not in the world.

manner in which he revealed himself to
his brethren; the responsibility the ten

The application was made to individual
responsibility to God for those with
whom we come in contact. Each op-
portunity is an obligation. All have an
influence for good or evil. Several in.

The BarrIess Hotel

Commenting on the statement that the
Woodstock Inn earned forty per cent.
last season, the Burlington Free Press re-
marks: "And yet some people insist
that big summer hotel in Vermont will
not pay" And the Enosburg Standard
adds:
"And there are others who vociferously
insist that a summer hotel in Vermont
will not pay unless it is able to sell liquor.
And yet the Woodstock Inn did so with
out the fictitious aid OF bar, and this
hotel is by no means the only one that is
being conducted in Vermont in not only
a self-respecting but highly profitable
manner without the sale Of liquor. II
not only explodes the theory of the ne
cessity of a bar to successful hotel opera
ton, but constitutes an effective answer
to the arguments advanced in behalf o.
innkeepers' license and similar measures. ;
