A GRAND OLD BOOK

II
The Chicago Inter Ocean of
May 18th, says; Protestant
churches of chicago united in a
mass meeting in Orchestra hall
to participate in the worldwide
celebrations in commemoratlon
of the three hundred anniversary
of the translation of the Bible in
to English. The capacity of the
auditorium was taxed to the limit
and hundreds of persons were
turned away from the tercenten-
airy celebration for lack of ac-
commodations.
William Jennings Bryan, the
principal speaker, challenged
scoffels of the Holy Word and
its divine inspirations to prove
that they were right by attempt
ing to produce a book equal in
wisdom and teachings to the
volume which has stood the test
of centuries.
The other speakers were the
Right Rev. Charles P. Anderson,
Bishop of the Protestant Episco-
pal church. and the Rev. Ozora
S. Davis, D. D., president of the
Chicago Theological seminary.
One of the most impressive in
cidents of the evenings program
was reading from an original
first edition of the King James
version of the Bible printed in
England in 1911.
The book, which is valued at
more than $4,000, is now in the
possession of the Newberry
library. In a locked case, the
Bible was taken from the library
to Ochestra hall. carefully guard
ed by three men, and as soon as
the services were over it was
hurried back to it's resting place
in the library. The University
of Chicago also possesses a King
James version of the Bible. but
it is the second edition, and not
as valuable as that exhibited at
the recent ceremonies.
In his address on THE Book
/ of Supreme Influence, Colonel
Bryan spoke of the battles be-
tween the spiritual and material
conception of life which have
ragged around the Bible for nine
teen hundred years.
At Chicago. ON May 4, at the
celebration of the 30Oth an
niversary of the King J m e S
| translation of the Bible, Mr.. Bryan
delivered the following address.
Atheists and materialists have
assailed the Bible at every point;
they have disputed the f a S
which it sets forth and ridiculed
the plophesieS which it recites;
! they have rejected the account
| which it gives of the creation and
scoffed at the miracles which it
records. They have denied the
existence of the g o d of the
Bible and have sought t. aeduce
the Savior to the n re of a
man. They have been as bold as
the prophets of BAIL in defying
the living God and in heaping
contempt upon the Written Word.
Why not challenge the atheists
and the materialists to put their
doctrines to the test? When
Elijah was confronted by a group
: of scorners who Knocked at the
Lord whom he worshipped, he in
vited them to match the power
of their God against the power
of his and he was willing to con-
cede superiority to the one who
would answer with fire. When
the challenge was accepted he
