Ballet Girls and the Bible.


sionary work has been stimulated by
a biblical play in New York. 1t is
a large production, with a number
of we'll. known actors and large
ballet. The secretary of the Bible
society has delivered at the stage
door of the theatre a Bible for each
member of the ballet. His idea is
that the girls will read it in their
dressing rooms while they are wait
ing for the call boy. Apparently he
did not leave any copies for the prin-
cipals, though he announces his in
tention to place Bible in every
dressing room in the city. The idea
is an excellent one; it has already
been put into practice in the case Of
hotel bed rooms. Perhaps it would
be uncivil as we'll as inaccurate to as
sumo that the ballet girls need Bibles
more than other persons. There are
good, bad and Indifferent among
them, as among any other class in
the community; you can no more in
dict profession than you can indict
a whole people. Even the worst is
doubtless kind to her mother. But it
must be admitted that, moral or re-
ligious consideration aside, the Bible
is much-neglected book in these
days, though no one can be consider
ed we'll read who is ignorant of it.
That may be partly the fault Of
those who profess most to respect it..
The uninstructed do not always un-
derstand that it is not mere collec-
ton of 'texts," to be used mainly
for argument or denunciation. The
Old Testament is a library of ancient
Jewish literature, filled, not only with
moral exaltation, but with poetry and
philosophy. There is nothing in the
Greek dramatists more wonderful in
it's way than the Book of Ecclesiastes,
though some regard it as purely secu-
lar, and hold that it's note of pessim-
ism should have excluded it from the
canonical writings. Any ballet girl
or other explorer after good Eng
lish style should devote nights and
days to the study of it. Then there
is the Book of Job-a magnificent
drama, despite the flaw of the happy
ending, a concession by the writer
to the Philistines of his time. 1t is
somewhat difficult to consider so i'm
partially the New Testament. Yet
this is after all primarily body Of
early Christian literature, of tran
scendent Importance because it con-
tains four biographies of Jesus, as
we'll as the writings of St. Paul, the
first and greatest of Christian theo-
logians. Even so it is quite as much
a testimony of the authenticity of the
church and it's teachings as touch
stone of doctrine.
Surely the whole world should
read the Bible, and become familiar
with it, The too general ignorance
of it has already had a deplorable ef
feet upon our younger writer's, who
have not the charm of their elders
largely because of the lack of distinc-
ton and elevation of language which
they drew from searching the Scrip
tures.- es.-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

CAMP MCCLELLAN. Annlston, Ala,
Oct. INSTRUMENTATION OF the one Del

five New Jersey Regiments on the new
National Army plan into two regiments
Of the 57th brigade Is being carried
out, but 10 is probable a week Will be
required to straighten the units out
before the intensive training program
IS resumed. The three battalions OF
the First Delaware Infantry have been
so dsmembered that there Is hardly a
whole unit left among them and the
officers and men alike are apparently
much discouraged because they have
been so badly split up.
Major Ernest c. Parks who had
command Of the Second Battalion OF
the Delaware outfit seems to have
Jared better than any Of his brother
officers from Delaware. He has been
selected as one Of the three majors to
command in the newly-organized Hath
infantry regiment which Is made up OF
New Jersey and Delaware troops.
Major Parks will have about 1900 Del
aware men in his battalion. The other
two majors, the colonel and the lieu
tcnant-colonel Of this new regiment
are all New Jersey men.
Colonel j. Warner Reed who had
command Of the Delaware Regiment
and who brought the troops Of the
Diamond State here has been relieved
and at present he is without a COM
mand. lie still ranks as colonel and
it IS understood he will be detailed for
other duty, probably with the Depor
Brigade.

First Battalion OF the Delaware Regl-
ment and Major l.. b. Jacobs who COM
manded the Third Battalion Of the
regiment as we'll as the several cap
ta.ns and lleutenants who have been
relieved Of their commands when their
companies We're broken up Is one OF
the subjects for conjecture among the
Delaware men In camp. 1t Is under
stood all OF them will be given work
10 do and that none Of them VIII be
reduced In rank but neither Will they
be promoted. The worst feature, ac-
cording to their viewpoint, Is the fact
that their officers have been taken from

Books For Soldier Boys.

Our young men are sacrificing
their education, business, profession
al training and home life to serve
their country.
They need books and current
magazines for study, recreation and
diversion in lonely moments. You
can help them by donating books
and magazines which will be for
warded to the army camps, the
front and the hospitals,
Books on the War, Popular Tray
ell, History and Biography, as well
as Short Stories, Detective Stories,
Stories of the Sea and Adventure,
are desired. Any readable book of
general interest will appeal to the
soldiers, as there are men of varying
tastes among them.
If you have any, communicate
with the librarian at the Strykel
Library, or notify the publicity com
mittee, Prof. J. H. Herring, JOSEPH
G. Lear or Harold K. Dilley. Full
details of the plans for collectin,
the books will be given next week.

SCHOOLS CLOSE
FOR A WEEK

The Lambertvile Board of Edu-
cation decided this week that there
would be no school exercises until
next Monday, owing to the atten-
dance of the teachers at the County
Institute at Pennington part of the

This would give but one day of
school, Thursday, which it was
thought could be better employed
some other time.

HOME GUARDS
DRILL TONIGHT

Major Harry P. Moorhead, of the
Adjutant Generals office, Trenton,
will inspect the Lambertville Home
Guards, at their drill on the base
ball field this Thursday evening.
Mayor Theodore Balderston and
other members of the city commits
sion will also be in attendance, and
a large crowd of townspeople is ex-

Captain H. r. Wilbur, of the
Home Guards, has been preparing
for this special inspection for some
time, and it is said by those who
have witnessed some of the drills
that real surprise is in store for
citizens who have doubts about
making an efficient military organi-
cation out of men who can give but
one evening a week to the work.
The baseball field will be brill
liantly lighted, and the exercises
will begin at s o'clock.
