simply as an introduction. to plead for
the bible in the home. The two great

only way to hide" the bible in the

one can ever become past master in
bible knowledge by getting l1is bible
second hand.
Not so very long since listened to
a sermon by metropolitan preacher
In a great edifce. The minister only
quoted bible texts twice, and he gave
both quotations Incorrectly.
! College presidents have Of late years
expressed surprise and apprehension
for American morals because they
have discovered by many careful tests
that the young people who come to
them have not the bible hid In their
hearts. and they know that nothing is
such a. safeguard against the irnrnor-
alitfes Of youth AZ Ia the bible. But
no one was ever Thoroughly familiar
with the bible, think, who was not
made familiar with It In his childhood.
