 \. F. 4. started off well enough hay ing a slight edge on their opponents during the first period but being UH- able to make it count. From the be- sinning of the second quarter till the final whistle shrilled, Vocational had things their own way. The turning point of the game came early in the second period when Vocational in po- session of the ball in. midfield. com pleted ong forward which seemed to discourage the Norwich youths, for their defense suddenly weakened and with Rankin fullback plugging the line and Dwyer halfback circling the end. Vocational soon crossed the line for touchdown. Rankin conveyed the ball over and Dwyer kicked the goal. In the 3rd quarter. Vocational drove it's way to x. F. As l5 yd. line and
 Dwyer added 3 points to the score by nolstins pretty field goal. The fourth l period produced ? more touchdowns and goals there from making finai i count of 24 to D.

There is local interest in the report from Bangor, Me, that the bank com missioner has declined to register F. |, Barnett, Inc, as a dealer in securities un- der the laws of Maine. The company was selling stock in a projected New York hotel. which was to be the greatest in the world
 The Maine bank commissioner says:
 T am of the opinion that the plan fails to measure up to the requirements of the Maine statute for three reasons:
 "First-The plan of operation is un- fair, unjust and negotiable.
 "Second-Sufficient pertinent facts to enable intending purchasers to form a judgment of the nature and value of the securities are not disclosed.
 ''Third-The securities offered are cal culated to work a fraud upon the pur- chaser"

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE ON
 HOW WE cor OVR RIR1

At the Central Baptist church on Sun day evening there was an exceptionally interesting illustrated lecture on How We Got Our Bible, given by Samuel w. Ray mond, secretary of the Connecticut Bible society at Hartford MT. Raymond told of the early beginning of the accumula- tlon of manuscripts and how with great difficulty the Bible had been compiled un- til today We have as complete a trans lation of the old manuscripts as possible. The history of the Bible is one ,of great
 interest, and in his lecture Mr. Raymond told how certain discoveries of old rec ords had borne out and proved the writ lngs of the Bible to be correct
 The lecture was illustrated by stereop- tlcon slides showing many of the his- torical records which have been discoy- cred which tell of many of the incidents related in the Bible Many discoveries such as the Rosetta stone. records found
 ln the ruins of Egypt, Babylonia and
 Assyrla have contributed largely to the 1 translations of the old manuscripts of the
 Old Testament which deals with facts that occurred 4,000 years before the birth of Christ. The New Testament then would be considered almost modern i when compared with the Old The early versions were mostly in Latin. Greek and Hebrew. The history of the vernacular Bible of the English race resolves itself ] into two distinctly marked periods-the one being that of manuscript Bibles. which were direct translations from the l Latin Fulgate, the other that of printed l Bibles which were more or less com ! pletely. translations from the original i Hebrew and Greek of the Old and New 1 Testaments. The first manuscript Bible i was in the seventh century by Caednon l Who wrote in poetry. The first prose i rendering was by Bede in the eighth century.
 1 Then came the version of Wycliffe i who completed his version in 1882 The l next important version was by William I Tyndale in 1924 Miles Cioverdale was also preparing version about the same
 time. The Genevan Bible made it's ap. pearance in 1880 and soon after the ac- cession of Queen Elizabeth Bishops Bible i appeared. The next version was the an. thorized version in 1911 which rose on, i or a conference between the high ane low churches convened by James L mi:

Explaining the illiteracy situation in the state and the need for concerted Americanization efforts, Mir. Dening says:
 These figures are indicative of the stupendous problem that confronts the state. not only in educating those of for eign birth but also in assimilating such vast numbers with such a small percent age of leaven as represented by the native stock. There also must be thou sands who had just sufficient ability to pass the literacy test who should attend school, as also many who have taken out their first papers and await further education It is most encouraging te note that the percentage of literac5 among native born of parents is the same as that of native born of native parents-namefy, 4 per eent-a splendid testimonial to the efficiency of our pub l lie school systems.

 Modem society has been for seven years undergoing the most tremendous indictment which it has eNer sustained, and whether it Is to survive in it's previ- ous forms Is Co be materially omdified, or is to go the way of the civilizations of anuquity is still uncertain" he said.
 "The indictment has been ostensibly lirscted against it's political and eco- homie organization. but essentially it is an assault upon the moral and religious fabric of the social order If capitalism. for example. is the evil thing often all lcgsd. it ib evil primarily because men d0 not conceive themselves as members. one Of another 1T monarchical absolutsm s an evil it Is so in the first instance because men possessing the supreme power regard tbemEelves and their inter estE as wholly superior to the rank and file Of mankind 1T democratic forms of government have failed wholly to secure that .ncrease Of human happiness and Iustc, which has often been so conf denty predicted for them. it is in part 70 least because no form of government merely as such can protect against the maifessance of men whose purposes are sinister and selhsh.
 The university community is in ex- lctiy the same case. No matter how intelligent It's organization, how ingenious it's dcvices how generous It's resources ir men ana materials, it cannot attain tc Is full usefulness unless every member sf it is earnestly and unselfshly devoted To the execution of his own particuiai nart of the general task
