WOMAN SAYS DUTY .|S ID TALK PEACE
Scores Mothers Who Give War Toys To Their
 Children

The task of the Jewish women of America is to talk peace and teach peace, declared Mrs. Joseph Wiesen- field of Baltimore, ex-president of the National Federation of Temple Sis terhoods, in a message to the Jewish women of America upon her recent return from Europe, where she ob- served the destruction, devastation and chaos wrought by the World war. Women of the synagogue, she feels, especially those affiliated with sisterhood organizations of temples, have no more urgent duty than to educate people for peace. As a practical step forward, she urged women to abstain from giving chill dren toys representing war in any aspect.
 Very recently I visited the battle fields of France" she said, "and saw the destruction and devastation, which five years of peace have not healed. I stood by the graves of thousands of our own American boys and wept over the stars and crosses marking those hallowed graves. War and it's horrors were brought home to be as never before. l was more fully convinced than ever that we mothers, yet women of the syna- gogue have no more urgent duty than to talk peace. to teach peace and to use our utmost effort toward education for peace.
 The Germans were educated for generations for war, why shall we not benefit by their experience and teach peace?
 Begin by determining not to give toys representing war to our boys. Give books of travel and biographies of those eminent in literature and the arts to the growing boy and girl, rather than the lives of warriors, Follow this plan consistently and in time we must have results.
 Centuries ago our sages said the time would come when swords will be beaten into blow shares let up help bring this prophecy nearer full fillment, and let us work so that nations will learn war no more"
 As chairman of the National Com mittee tf Cooperation of the Fede- ration of Temple Sisterhoods, Mrs. Wiesenfeld asked all affiliated sis terhoods to hold peace meetings on Armistice Day.

WARNS A N q BIBLE TRANsLAT|O
Dr. Moody Says King James Version Only Is
 Standard

pr. James M. Gray, president of The Moody Bible institute of Chi cago, warns his readers editorially in the November issue of the Moody Bible Institute Monthly, against some modern versions of the Bible. He says:
 "Beware of modern English trans lations or versions of the Bible. We mean particularly those which repre- sent individual enterprises like that of Hendrick Willem Van Loon, who Is said to be engaged at present in such a work. No matter how sincere the motive, such a translation Is bound to be something of para phrases or a commentary and repre- sent the authors interpretation of the Bible People will thus unwittingly be drinking tainted water supposing 1t to be pure. They will be reading Van Looms ideas under the impress sion that they are the mind of God.
 "In reply to this 1t may be said that the King James version itself is a translation, but the difference is that it represents the labors of notable company of Christian scholars who humbly believed in the God of the Bible and accepted it as plenarily inspired presupposition and a prerequisite in our judgment not always possible to be predicated of modern translators. Furthermore the King James translation has stood the test of time, and in the language of another has triumphed over the whims, the changes, and the fads of three centuries.'
 ''We learn through writer in the Boston Transcript, that a professor of Greek In the University of Chicago has nearly finished a modern rem dering of the New Testament, in the language of a twentieth century Main street., but he adds, truthfully we think, that these colloquialisms will pass away, but the King James version will survive"
