BIBLE STUDY IN
MISSOURI SCHOOLS.

Columbia, Mo-, July 13.-Bible
study will soon form part of the
regular credit work of all the high
schools of the State If the plans of
Prof. ]. D. Eliff, high school visitor
for the Missouri University, is adopt
ed. Already the high schools of
Webb City and Iberia are giving BIZ
BILE credit and Prof. Eliff expects the
plan to be approved by the State ed
ucational department and to be a.
dopted by the schools all over the
State.
Professor Eliff's plan provides for
the cooperation of the local boards
of education and the local churches
in putting Bible study on the same
basis with the same requirements as
work in English or History. The
teachers will be required to have
special training in the Bible.
Virginia now has plan for its
high schools similar to the one pro-
posed for Missouri. Colorado and
some other states have also adopted
courses of Bible study somewhat
along the same lines. Some of the
courses given are: Heroes of the
Old Testament" "The Life of
Christ" 1.-THE Early Christian
Church." and studies in separate
books and groups of books in the BIZ
