"Vhy ! like this illustrated
edition Of the Bible is because
everything about il has been
well done and seems TO have
been done in the right spirit.
The Book itself has been ap.
preached by the annOtator with
reserve and intelligence, and by
it's artists with sympathy and
knowledge. Ii has not been
made into a meaningless picture
book. The pictures here serve
a d: Jtinct purpose. They en-.
rich the text, but they do more;
they intelligcntly explain it,
and many a hitherto obscure
passage will assume to thous.
ands n new meaning through
these cyc-teaching pictures.
Popularizing the Bible is a risky
experiment in the hands Of
many, bnt IL has been made a
splendid achievement in this
ease.

hours following the accident he was

GERMAN PAPERS MUST
PRINT FOES WAR NEWS
Teutonic Government Orders Press to
Publish Bulletins Issued
by Allies.

The German government has ordered
that newspapers in Germany are to print
in full official bulletins of enemy gov
ernments on the progress of operations
in the theaters OF war. according to an
announcement received at the German
Embassy yesterday. The German au-
thorities take the stand that the practice
OF eliminating portions of enemy bulle-
and that German papers must discon-
tinue II.
1t is declared that German military re-
ports are scrupulously truthful. and that
even false statements in enemy bulletins
can do no harm in Germany. because
the facts can never be concealed for
any length OF time, and lies are always
recognized as such in the end
The text of the German announcement
In part, is as follows:
The publication of the official reports
of our enemies in regard to the war on
land is still being treated in different
ways by the various German newspapers
Many of them publish the reports in toto;
others publish only extracts. Cases have
also occurred where news items unfavor-
able to US are eliminated from the re-
ports at the order of the censors.
THE latter procedure does not CORE
spond with the opinion held by the army
headquarters that the unabridged quota
ton of the enemies reports Is required
at all times. exceptions only to be made
with papers in case of which financial
reasons or technical difficulties in print
ing demand consideration"
