O.-What is mama, the food which
the lsraeiites received in the Wilder
ness as they journeyed toward the
promised land? Is. J. W.
Answer Mamma was the miraculous
ly supplied food on which the Israel
ties subsisted. Its name is said to
have originated In the question c'What
is it?" Exodus xvi. 10, Il. W asked
by the Israelltes when they first saw
It, according to some authorities. the
name comes from the Egyptian men
nu''-food doubtless. the word from
which the modern term Of menu-bill
OF fare-is derived. The mama IS
also designated bread" Exodus xvi.
~; 1t is called 1.-The corn OF heaven
and "the bread Of the mighty" in Psalm
xviii, "a. %, Il. V. The Eanna de
scended In the night In the form OF
coriander seed Of the color OF bdellium

Ing the ground looked as II 1t were
covered with hoar frost. The grains
were ground or pounded into -four. and
then the -four was prepared and baked
In the form OF cakes. the taste OF which
was like that OF waters made with
honey" or las the taste OF fresh oil
Exodus xvi. 81; Numbers XII, 81. The
mamma was eaten the day It was gath
cred; If it was left until the following
morning It corrupted and bred worms.
though the mamma gathered on Friday
and kept for the Sabbath remained
fresh. 1t continued 10 descend during
the forty years the Israelites were in
the wilderness, but when they arrived
at Gngal and began TO eat the grain
grown there, the mama ceased to fall
In order to perpetuate the memory Of
this providence, Aaron was told to put
an omer OF mama in vessel and lay
lt "before the testimony" Exodus Nv,
1875; Joshua v. 1912.

Q.-Where is the Ark OF the Cove
nant that was used by the lsraelites in
connection with their religious rites
and ceremonies in the Tabernacle If
tho Wlderness7 have heard of diff
ferent rumors as to where il might be
at tho present time. ono Of which is 20
the effect that il was placed in tho
great Pyramid of Egypt in a secret
chamber Of tho Prophet jeremiah, and
that il will yet be brought forth from
it's hiding place and revealed to the
world at tho proper time. There are
many that are interested in this ques-
tion; can you throw any light on the
matter2 IS. J. W.
Answer.-The Ark OF the Covenant
which was made under the directions
OF Moses and placed in the Most Holy
of the Tabernacle was afterwards de-
posted by King Solomon In the Holy
of Holes OF the magnificent temple
which the King had erected unto the
Lord II Kings vi. 19) At that time
It contained only the two tables Of the
Law which Moses had placed there at
Horeb. The golden pot of mamma and

moved or had become lost prior Ia the
time of Solomon. q Kings wifi. 1-9D
When the Temple was destroyed and
the Israelites were taken captive TO
Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar. many of
the golden vessels were carried away.
but nothing is said concerning the Ark
or as to what finally became of it. 1t
was never heard OF after this time. and
there are no records of its having been
used in the later Temples that were
erected in Jerusalem. The basis for
the Pyramid legend is found in one OF
the books of the Apocrypha. where 1t
is stated that the Prophet jeremiah
being warned Of God" took the Ark
and buried 1t In cave on Mt. Sinai
This narrative has been twisted by
some and interpreted to mean that Mt,
Sinai is the Pyramid and the cave is
the secret chamber.

Owe are told the Bible manu-
scripts were written on velIum. DATING
from the.seventh century. These were
capital letters, written in a running
hand without spaces, accents. or pune
tuation, and the reading was straight.
When was the Bible divided into chap
ters and verses7 e.. 3. b.
Answer. The oldest known Greek
manuscripts of the New Testament
are the Codex Sinaiticus and the Co
dex Vaticanus, both of which were
written in the fourth century. The
Septuagint is a Greek version of the
Old Testament made between 2S0 and
1870 Il. @. The Latin Vnlgate was
made by Jerome during the years
from A. d. 1888 to 405. 1t Is transla-
tion from the Hebrew and Greek
manuscripts and writings then known.
The edition of Pope Clement VIII, OF
1928 is the source Of the modern
Douay version, the accepted standard
Of the Roman Catholic Church. The
King James or Authorized Version is,
FOR the most part. merely revision OF
what Is known as the Bishops Bible
with corrections made with the aid Of
several other versions and eight manu-
scripts In the Greek. none OF which
were earlier than the tenth century.
The Authorized Version is. In reality,
mainly from the Latin Vulgate. The
present system of the division Of the
Bible into chapters was the invention
Of Cardinal Hugo. In the thirteenth
century. and was first applied to the
Latin Bible. The present system of
verses first appeared in the edition
printed by Robert Stephens in the
year 1861. Punctuation was intro

vest the song. They may read
we'll; but they will not stand
the test of fact.
The only romantic thing
about the song is the circum-
stance in which | first heard
it sung. Mr.. Danks had
written to me that it was soon
to be published; but l had
no knowledge of the date of
it's publication. My home
wasabout eighteen milesfrom
the place where | was at
tending college, and | went
back to it to spend the holi-
day vacation. When there a
concert was given by a band
of singers and players from
the Oneida Indian Reserva-
ton. This reservation covers
considerable territory to the
east and south of Green Bay,
Wisconsin, and is given over
Evening star., 1912-09-15

to the use of the remnant of the once-poWer-
full Oneida tribe. Many of these Indians are
very musical, and they take great pleasure
in giving concerts of vocal and instrumental
music in the towns along the railroad run
ming through their lands.
1t was at the concert given by them in my
home town that heard the first rendition of
the song that has since become famous. |
was not aware at that time that the song had
been published and put on sale, and one can
Judge of the thrill that went over me when
an Indian woman came upon the stage and
sang the song had written. little dreamed
then that l was listening to what was to be-
come Immediately popular, and was to have
ewlease of life thirty years later, IN which It's
popularity would be greater than ever before.
SUCH is the simple history of the song
~ that originated in the mind of boy of
imaginative temperament ("Growing Old"
was written when | was about eighteen,
who appropriated to himself the experiences
of others in advance of their becoming part
of his personal experience. Some OF us do
not have to live out some of the experiences
of life in order to understand them and make
them, in a sense, our own. | think it was so
in this case. | could anticipate what after
years were to bring me, and my imagination
made the anticipation SO real, SO vivid, that
| suppose it seemed to me that | really had
experienced what | wrote about.
| have often been asked what | thought
the secret of the songs success. | think it
lies in the fact that the idea of growing old is
one that appeals to everyone alike, and the
sentiment of the song touches the universal
chord. The music to which it was set seems
to be in such perfect harmony with the
words, and SO admirably supplements the
sentiment of them, that the two fit each
other as if they had sprung from the same
mind and the same inspiration. Some
tunes will be popular no matter what words
you sing to them; but it is hard to conceive
of divorce between the words and the music
of this song. They are "joined together, for
better or worse" for all time to come.
have always felt that Mr.. Danks has not
been given his rightful due in regard to this
song. Usually the composer of the music OF
a popular song gets most OF the credit. Often
the name of the author of the words is not
known. But in this instance the case has
been reversed. The composers name is
mentioned SO casually, in most of the articles
| have seen, that one would be likely to get
the impression that the music was of second
ary Importance.
Without Mr. Danks' setting the song
would never have amounted to anything. 1t
was that which gained for it the attention of
the public, and made it possible for it to sing
its way to the hearts of the people. 1t is sad
to think that the man whose music gave
such telling emphasis to the idea of love
that lasts, and enjoys perpetual youth, died
friendless and alone, estranged from his
family, and sleeps today in an unmarked
grave. Let us hope that his new life has
proved kinder to him than the old one.

confronting the Mayor than those confront
ing the fraternal president. Any man knows
that an election in a small body consists
merely of the popularity of the candidate
connected with his fitness in character and
in ability for the place. In such a contest
there is neither necessity nor room for de-
ception, nor for pretensions to things that a
man does not like or believe in. And this is
founded four % on honest speaking, on sound judg
ment, and on frank campaigning for clear
cut ideas.
