Since writing the letter which ap-
peared in The Herald July s, have
been asked BY my friends how I can
presume to accept a certain passage OF
scripture as genuine, while hint at
the rejection Of another passage In the
same chapter There are undoubtedly
hundreds of readers Of The Herald that
are thinking the same question. If The
Herald viii allow, / believe It VIII be

the facts which make such presump-
lions possible.
In the first place, our common Eng
fish Bible, as we have IL today, Is not
direct translation from any one single
Greek, Latin OF Hebrew version me
scholars who translated our Bible had
before them half a dozen or more OF
Bibles. none of which we're alike or
even complete Sometimes they fol-

they had TO compromise on some SEN

They are still preserved, and can be
seen by anyone VINO can afford to

where they are kept.
The most important and the Oldest
OF these Bibles are as follows;

scented to king Charles the First, OF
England, and is now in the British mu-

NEW LEGISLATION
FOR u. S. ARMY
Present Enlistment Law Is Net What
Is Wanted-Better Training for
the Men Is Desired

Washington, d. c., July 14-Legisla-
ton for both the army and navy must
be enacted during the term OF this con
gress, although nothing except work OF
a preparatory nature viii be attempted
during the special session
The army must be relieved from the
Ill effects of the present law. which
provides for a seven years contract
when a man eulists-fOOr years with
the cOlors and three as a part Of the
reserves-and the navy must BE- re-
Ieved from the threatened hump"
which in the near future viii mean
starvation in promotion
Both propositions present serious
complications; serious because they
call for legislation which may mean
additional expense at first and econ
omy IS the desire Of every congress-
man, unless the money goes to his home
district
Already it has been shown that the
long enlistment period in the army is
failure, Just as was predicted by many
officers when the law was passed. It
was a compromise between those who
wanted long term enlistment on the
one hand and those who wanted TO
establish a reserve Of trained soldiers
on the other. 1t makes no provision
for paying the men anything while
held under the reserve contract. and
II means for every newly enlisted man
four years service in the army with
liability for further service Of three
years in case Of emergency Under
such conditions the enlistments have
fallen off in spite of all the efforts OF
recruiting officers

soldiers are lOath to give up the re-
serve idea, and will cling tenacfous1y

At the twenty-sixth international
Christian Endeavor convention, in ses-
sion in Los Angeles, president Clark,
who is the Endeavor's founder, points
out that next February the Endeavor
movement will have closed its first gen
% Grafton Of life-33 years. He makes
the suggestion to the EndeayOr move
ment everywhere the holding OF an an
nual Increase and Efficiency week De
ginning in February 1914 to cover
February 2 the anniversary OF the
movements birth. He would nave eacn
society take stock, so to SPEAK ana
find out If IL is really doing those
things for which it was organized lie
talked Of EndeavOr milliOnaires-not IN
money, but in numbers OF workers IN
the churches. These numbers ne rech--
Cns at 100000 now actively at WORK
who were trained in EndeaTor meet
ings.
President CIarks plans for the OBJ
servance Of the week include an even
ing to consider Sunday school teaching,
enc to consider the efficiency record,
third q social night, and the closing
Sunday a religious round up IN NUM-
berS, in gifts, and in work. President
Clark says the notion that there Is such
a thing as religious dissipation IS
much OverwOrked, and expresses the
belief that one whole week, the even
iLgs at any rate, is not too eNhausIlns
for healthy Christian man or woman.
He recounts the larger service OF
Christian EndeavOr TO social WelIare-
He thinks the original society which
he founded has grown in the genera
tion to 100000, and the original %
members to 5000 600.
Secretary William Shaw Of the
United Society of Christian EndeaVor,
in his report to the International con-
venLion places Christian EndeaNOr AT
70, 900 sOcfties and 100000 active mem
bers, and finds the movement TO be
more alive than ever before The new
emphasis laid upon missions, upon So
cial service and upon religious educa-
ton he traces in large part to EndeaEoE
societies Especially does he claim Tor
the societies the large fresh air, gooo
health and in some measure eugene
reform, and gives statistics to show IN
what an extended list of countries prls-
on relief work is carried on by EnaeaV-
or members
The largest claim made by secretary
Shaw is, however, for efficient So
cieties. Two years ago an efficiency
chart was proposed, and thus Tar more
than 8, 900 societies have worked them
selves up to 100 percent Some to have
done so began at IS percent The
movement has just been taken up Dy
societies in Australia, in which country
the next international Endeavor con-
vention is to be held. For Endeayor
Unions secretary Shaw makes in his re-
port the claim that they are laymen's
training schools fitting men and Wom-
en- for unsaIaried service in the
churches. The EndeavOr movement mas

REVISION OF PRAYER
nnnm- WemHrw-r


BOOK BEING CONSIDERED
The proposal of influential leaders
in the Church of England TO revise the
Book Of Common Prayer comes at a
time when the Episcopal church In TINS
country is considering, although not
officially a revision of the American
book The last time the latter was re-
yised was in 1892 when It was mucn
enriched, but when things ALREADY
therein were not much touched The
agitation for the present revision is
along the lines Of the English one, and
for the same reason, but It includes
also the insertion Of new dictionaries,
or passages Of Scripture to be read on
various occasions, and regularly Tor
first and second lessons in the sunday
services. 1t is said to be likely that
the approaching General convention IN
October will name a commission 10
take up the revision Of the American
book.
In both English and American books
the psalter follows old translauons, IN
part from the German and not from
the original Hebrew, so that Fsalns
read very different from late BlDle
revisiOns. There is a growing dissat-
isfactiOn on this score. The same OBJ
jectiOns as are now raised by an Eng
Hsh bishop, that whole verses OF the
psalUer say little has long been made
In private here. Ehe Rev. DIT SamuSL
Hart, cuStOdiOn of the Standard book
Of Common Prayer, cites the sixty
eighth Psalm, a famous one, as con-
tanning verses that say nothing in par
ticUlar. Here is a verse from it:
When the company Of spearmen and
multitude of the mighty are scattered
abroad among the beasts of the people
so that they humbly bring pieces OF
silver: and when he hath scattered the
people that delight in war; then shall
the princes come out Of Egypt, the
Myrians land shall stretch out her
hands unto God" What are beasts OF
the people, il may be asked Selec-
lions of parts of the new dictionaries
for the American book have already
been made it may be added.
