THE BIBLE AND THE BOOK OF
NATURE

NATURE
God has given us two books. He
is believed to be the Divine Author
Of the Bible, but He is not its sole
author. 1t was written by men, a
considerable number Of men, under
Gods guidance. Whatever view of
its inspiration we NAV holland the
views held by Christian people diff
fer more or less-all admit that man
was the agent by whom God wrote
it, that the language and mode of
thought are to some extent determin-
ed by this human agency, and that
the number and variety Of these hu.
man agents mas resulted in differ
ences in the form and expression of
thought in its different parts. More
over, as we have it today, many more
men besides the original writers, have
left their impress upon it. Not a
scrap Of the original writings Of the
Bible are known to be in existence
now, and if they were, but very few
of us could read them. What we
have is the result of the work of an
army Of copyists and translators,
thus increasing the human element
in the Book
OF the Book of Nature, on the
other hand, God is the sole Author.
Man has had absolutely nothing TO do
with its authorship. His task has
been only to study and interpret it.
The writing of it began in the i'm
penetrable past and has continued
without interruption to this day and
is stih going on before our eyes. II
is at least possible that, thru mans
part in the authorship, the copying
and the translation Of the Bible, some
error may have crept in, but in the
Book Of Nature error is impossible.
Bible students and theologians have
/ sought to discover the truth God has
given us in the Bible; scientists, stu.
dents Of Nature, have sought for the
truth in the Book Of Nature. For a
long time theologians believed the
Bible to be the source of all knowl-
edge and used its proof texts as the
test of every kind Of truth. but they
have gradually come to see that it is
not designed to teach science, but re.
ligion.
One great thought runs thru the
Book Of Nature. On every page il
is written; from the birth Of the sun,
the earth and the planets, thru the

Government is in the hands of the
student body to large extent, the
honor system being found to work
satisfactorily.
In other respects Union College is
similar to those American colleges
which have as their ideal the fund
amental practices of the Christian
religion.
Athletics have a large pace in the
life of the college and it's athletic
director. w. B. Trosper, has pro-
duced teams that have brought the
downfall of teams from the larger
universities in a manner that has
made Union known far and wide as
not only a good college of sports,
but also as winning good sports.

ern Baptist Convention came to its
aid. Thru the assistance of the
board and generosity of its friends
the administration building has
been enlarged and two dormitories
have been erected.
The Aim
1t is the aim of the school to en-
large the whole plant to meet the
ever increasing body of students.
The Administration Building needs
to be remodeled to make more class
rooms. The Auditorium can be made
into class rooms and additional
rooms are needed at each end of the
building. The addition that is al
ready going up to the rear will be
used for the auditorium and labor
atories. A heating plant will be put
in this new building that will heat
the two dormitories which also need
to be enlarged TO twice their size to
adequately care for the large num-
-ber who come in after the county
schools have closed at Christmas.
Let me repeat, the school needs
help. 1t is the intention of its pres
ident and Board of Trustees to SO
present our need right now as to In
duce some good, large hearted phil
anthropist to come to our assistance
Immediately.
To those who are contemplating
coming to B. B. l. this year let us
urge you fully to decide now and
come as quickly as possible. The
Board of Trustees thinks they have
selected the strongest faculty that
the Institute has ever had. 1t in
cludes men and women of Christian
culture and refinement, of broad
scholarship and experience.
The President, Oscar L. Minks,
is a product of Lily, Laurel County
having been educated at Williams
burg Institute, (now Cumberland
College, Chicago University, Oska-
loose University and the Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary. His
teaching experience has been varied
from country schools to honored
fellowships in Universities OF
Theology and Philosophy. He has

BARBoURvILLE PUBLIC SCHOOL

The Public Schools of the country
come nearer being the highest ex-
preston of democracy than any
other institution Here, in friend
ship and goodwill one toward an
other, meet the sons and daughters
of citizens of different occupations,
some rich, some poor. The demo-
craey' of learning knows no favorites
and the sons and daughters of the
rich learn that whatever else money
may buy, there is no royal road to
learning, but that only by brains
and application is the pupil judged.
From these public schools have
gone's out many of those who have
helped in the building of the United
States of America of today,-a
country of which every citizen is
patriotically proud.
1t is a recognized fact that the
state which has the best schools
turns out the highest class of citi-
zenship and that such a state in
turn becomes a leader In civic ad-
vancement.
Due to a long period of virtual
isolation and other causes, the State
'of Kentucky does not rank with the
other states in the matter of educa-
tion, but there has sprung up in the
minds of Kentuckians the desire to
lift their beloved state to higher
plane. and since divine discomfort is
the mother of action, it will be but
a few years before this will be done.
In Barbourville we are making
rapid advancement. We have an ex-
cellent staff this year, modern
heating system has been installed
and the school board is one that will
assuredly do its best by the young
citizenship.
Parents may help greatly by see
ing to 1t that the children are punct-
ual and that they give the teachers
their moral support in the matter
of discipline, to the end that the
children may get the best possible
out of their school life.
Every parent who has children to
deal with in the home knows that
discipline is necessary and desirable
and if this is true of the home, it
is equally true in the schools. 1t is
also indisputable that the child who
is inclined to spurn discipline in the
schools and who is not reproved ct
home will feel liscense to do just
as he rleases and thus, in time,
what might have been a fine charac-
ter is turned into one that becomes
a menace tC society and even to the
reputation CT his own family.
Support the faculty Loyalty and
such support will return to you
fourfold.

INSTITUTE

"The parent who sends his son
out into the world uneducated, de-
frauds the community of a useful
citizen, and beqv saths a nuisance"

"If we work upon marble, it will
perish; II on brass, time will efface
it; II we rear temples they will

fear of God and love of our fellow

eternity. Daniel Webster.
1'' History
The Barbourville Baptist Institute
was founded by the Cumberland
P.ver Baptist Church. The first ses-
sions were held in the church house
but later the public school building
was rented for the use of the school,
The institute Twas so well patronized
from the beginning that the trustees
determined to give it a permanent
house so in 1902 a small brick build
ing was erected on the present
campus. The school labored under
many discouragements but finally

UNION COLLEGE

Feeling the lack of proper edu-
cational facilies for their sons and
daughters, citizens of Barbourville
in the year 1880 formed a joint
stock company and in this way
Union College had it's origin. To Mr..
James T. Gibson belongs much of
the credit for starting the school
which has developed into the pre-
sent fine institution. Not only did
he give the use of a school room,
but he went down into his pocket
and made a trip to Louisville where
he interested those who sold him
goods in the Mountain school.
Mountain advocate., 1922-09-15


In 1886 the property was sold TO
the Kentucky Conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
Union College has been fortunate
in its presidents beginning with Rev.
Daniel Stevenson, d. D., followed by
Rev. James Faulkner, AN, Rev.
James w. Easley, BID. AN, Judge
James d. Black, later governor OF
Kentucky, Percy L. Ports, Rev. e.
r. Overley. On June 30th, 1915,
Rev. Ezra T. Franklin was elected
president Under his wise and en-
ergetic handling of the affairs of
the college it has gone steadily for
ward as great moral and educa-
tive force in the mountains.
From Union College have gone
forth a number of men and women
who have added lustre to the name
of Knox County. Kentucky, but best
of all, IT has helped hundreds of
young men and women to know and
practice Christian principles in the
different walks of life unto which It
has pleased Providence 10 call them.
The management of Union College
has kept steadily in view the theory
that the best citizen is he who, in
telligent and we'll educated. is also
a leader in the moral and religious
uplift of his community. That this
is a sane view will be readily admit
ted by all. Seek ye first the King
dom of God and His righteousness"
has been the ideal Of Union College,
which has borne fruit over the
length and breadth of the land
Campus
The campus comprises ten acres
of tree shaded lawn on which stand
the handsome buildings of Union
College. The athletic field lies at
the back of the campus.
/ Buildings
The Administration Building has
three stories, is steam heated and
contains all modern equipment. It
is scientifically ventilated and its
fourteen class rooms have every
thing necessary for teaching and
study work. 1t contains also the
chemical, physical and biological
laboratories and the library. In the
/ hacamapt Occupvipu oI,,oe. tbo IN
tire floor, are the dining room, kit
chen and bakery.
Fanny Speed Hall is the home of
the young women students. 1t is a
three story building of unique de-
sign, with spacious halls and the
rooms are neatly furnished. The
building is supplied with modern
sanitary equipment. Stevenson Hall
is a brick structure of colonial de-
sign, three stories high. Each room
will accommodate two young men
students. The students have access
to hot and cold shower baths.
A heat, light and power plant, un-
der the supervision of Mr.. Gus Hau-
ser, makes for individual comfort
for the student body, as well as for
increased efficiency.
The Gymnasium, erected as a
memorial to the Soldiers and Sail
ors of the World War, is probably
the best gymnasium in the state. In
the basement is a fine swimming
pool where students are taught the
art of swimming and life saving.
The Library is ample for the
needs of the students and contains
books of all descriptions which are
suitable for a Christian college.
