THE BIBLE NEGLECTED..
Though Still the Best Seller, Il 10 MOI
Read a. Il Used to Be.

Though Still the Best Seller, Il 10 Not
Read a. Il Used to Be.
Although the Bible still leads all 9th.
er best sellers, few read 1t. People
still present Bibles to brides and
grooms. People still present Bibles to
children. Colporteurs still roam the
country handing out Bibles among tho
villagers. Associations of devout en-
thusiasts still put Bibles in hotels. But
the Bible Is seldom read aloud In the
home. And the type Of American who
daily reads his Bible in secret from
sense of duty is becoming more and
more rare.
Quite apart from it's moral and re-
ligious bearings, the neglect Of the BIZ
BILE involves a cultural handicap worth
noting. It involves cramping OF the
popular vocabulary, as no other liter
airy masterpiece is such well of Eng
fish pure and indebted. 1t involves a
dulling of literary perceptions, as liter
allure abounds in Biblical illusions
which every reader of the Bible In
stantly understands; but which only
readers Of the Bible ever can. Finally
it involves failure to respond to
many a good joke, as an astonishing
percentage of the best quips are moth
ing more or less than Biblical illusions.
1t is mainly useless, we realize, to
propose a course of self enforced Bible
reading for adults. We insist, how
ever, that parents who want their chill
dren to get the most enjoyment out of
life may well see to it that their chill
dren develop an acquaintance with the
Bible. It is the basis Of keen speech.
1t is the basis of intelligent reading.
1t is the basis of culture. And by cul-
ture we mean capacity for enjoying
the fine and beautiful things Of this
world and the capacity for producing
stme.-Chicago Tribune.

A LITTLE PIECE OF LEAD.
The costIiest Thing This World Of
Ours Has Ever Known.

Just think of one small piece of lead,
probably weighing less than an ounce.
that cost the world some 100000, OOO,-
600 in money. probably 800, 100000
in property, more than 100000 lives
and individual suffering and loss i'm
possible Of computations bit of lead
that embroiled in war Germany, Aus
tria-Hungary, Britain, France, Belgi-
um, the United States, Turkey, Siberia.
Italy, Montenegro, Roumania, Bulga-
ria, Albania, Egypt, Canada, Australia,
China Japan, South Africa, India and
Russia and brought every other nation
to the brink Of Internal trouble or out
ward disaster, the consequences of
which are being felt by every human
being, civilized or uncivilized. white.
black, yellow or brown! IL
That small piece Of lead was fired
from a pistol in the hands Of crack
Drained youth Of Servian nativity into
the body of the heir to the Austrian
throne. The troubles arising from this
mad act and its punishment set fire to
the powder trains in Europe and led
TO hostile act after hostile act and final
ly and suddenly to open war in 1914.
That little piece of lead should be
preserved as a memorial to all future
generations and as the costliest thing
mankind has ever known. 1t would
become the greatest silent teacher the
world has ever seen. 1t would teach
restraint for the weak minded and vio-
lent; it would teach the importance of
minor acts and things; it would teach
peace as no costly monument, no book
of horrors, no painting Of tragedy could
ever teach it.-Detroit Free Press.
