SHIP REFUSES

ICE ON LAKE
Attempts Made TO Pull Her

Grand Haven. Mich. Dec. 29.-With

gan and piling more ice against her
.eaward side, the Pere Marquette car
'erry No. 10. which went aground
forth of the harbor entrance Friday
orenoon remained firmly imprison-
I'd last night. There was little pros
'ect, according to officers of the
United States coast guard, that the
Jig ferry will be budged from her po-
ition before some time today.
Two attempts to pull her into open
7ater were made when the car ferry
Milwaukee put a line aboard. Each
ime, however. the huge hawser
roke and the efforts were abandon
for the time being.
Crew Is Comfortable
Captain w. e. Preston Of the local
cast guard station went aboard the

ody aboard comfortable and plenti-
ully supplied with provisions and
uelf
F. j. johnson, assistant superinten-
ent of the coast guard station said
he ferry was so firmly held by the
1e that she was in no danger unless
shift of the wind loosened the ice
ield and permitted the vessel to
oss, in which event, he said there
,as great danger of her breaking up.
20 long as the wind held from the
rest, however, he said. there was no
ause for apprehension.
The field of ice extending seward
rom the vessel now reaches out into
he lake about mile, while 500 feet
4 floating ice has accumulated be-
ween the ferry and the beach. John
on said that the ice between the
raft and shore was hardly solid
inough yet to permit the crew to
Walk ashore. Unless a shift of the
Wind drove the ice out, he believed
his could be accomplished by late

day five times that number are

In ignoring the flowery diction of

ing his testament, DR.. Goodspeed
said, he had been bitterly assailed
and accused of taking all of the
poetry out Of the Bible"
|c Late discoveries in Greek litera-

written to be 'understanded Of the

Another Error.
Here again the transIators of

they really modernized the Bible

None Of the books of the New
