Friday, we printed a rather allur-
ing report of scholarships being given
out by the Y. M. G.. A. to 'ex-service
men. Said scholarships are very
good things in their way. but men who
apply for them should obtain definite
information as to just what they will
amount to before basing any plans
on them. One of our young men to
whom scholarship was given, and
who expected it to be of considerable
use to him, found that in course of
study that cost him three or four hun
bred dollars that his scholarship
amounted to just $50, which he hasn't
received yet. In the class with him
was another man who received 500

mean well but it evidently has a
knack of getting itself misunder-

H sEPTuAcINT.

The Septuagint, or more generally
called, the Alexandrian version of the
Old Testament, seems to have derived
its name through the fact that in its
translation seven different persons
were engaged. In the Letters of Ar
~isteas" the legend is recounted as fol-
lows:
Deterius Phalereus, keeper Of the
Alexandrian Library, made a propo-
sition to King Ptolony Philadelphus to
have a Greek translation made of the
Jewish law for the famous library.
The King looked with favor upon this
suggestion, and he sent an embassy to
the high priest Eleazar at Jerusalem,
asking him to send six ancient, worthy
and learned men from each of the
twelve tribes to translate the law
for him at Alexandria.
Eleazar readily consented and sent
seventy-two men with the precious
roll of the law. They were receivd
with great honor at the court, and
with ceremony were sent to the Island
Of Pharus that they might work un-
disturbed and isolated. When they
had come to an agreement upon a
section, Demetrius wrote down their
version, and the whole translation
was finished in seventy-two days.
This legend is generally considered
as fiction, but in w. Robertson Smiths
"The Old Testament of the Jewish
Church., he says: "We have in the
Septuagint a Greek version of. the
Hebrew Old Testament, the first
great essay in translation into Greek,
a solitary specimen of the ordinary
language spoken and understood in
those days, the third century before
Christ.
"There is a famous legend of the
work by order of the Egyptian king,
and of the perfect agreement of all
the versions produced by the learned
men who had been sent at his re-
quest from Judea. Laying aside these
fables, it appears that the books
were gradually rendered for the ben

In 1898 he began to write. doing

He was already interested in social

novels and short stories he created

times discussed future wars in these
stories and his forecasts were amazing

In the meantime he had been writing
