noisseurs Of fine printing.
Rogers distinguished the metrical
portions Of the Bible from the prose
by breaking the lyric poetry into
verses corresponding with the original
Hebrew. While this was done in the
Revised Version, such method has not
been followed with the King James
Text since 1924.
TO GET that type on the printed
page and get it there right was
the problem from the beginning Such
practice has been a fetish with Bruce
Rogers since he was g. boy. his friends
say. After graduation from Purdue
University he worked on college publi-
cations. Printers ink on his fingers
drew him into the field Of journalism.
1t always does, He became an illus
traitor on the Indianapolis News. From
there he went to Boston and landed
on the staff Of the Riverside Press at
Cambridge. Designs in the Atlantic
Monthly caused the publishing house
Of Houghton Mifiin to turn over a
special department to Rogers for the
production Of fine books. Under his
supervision came the series known
as the Riverside Press Editions, now
eagerly sought by book collectors.
These books were typical Of an indi.
vidual typographical treatment. All
of these unexpected formats led up
to the Bible now on view.
There it is. behind the golden gates,

gress, Herbert Putnam.
Each night when it comes time to
close the rare book room Mr.. Parma
performs a rite. He turns the invisible
lock in the doors Of the golden gate
and locks it like vault-for there is
only one way in and out Of this room
that contains a treasure trove Of
knowledge, and that is through the
golden gates.
Behind those gates, aside from this
rarest of treasurers, the Bruce Rogers
Bible, are 10000 other rare books
which are worth more than the mill

~ ETER RABBIT Just can't be
happy unless he knows all
that is going on. You might
know that by his long ears,
and 1t is all because he is SO full OF
curiosity. It leads him to be forever
poking his wobbly little nose INTO
other peoples business. Peter. over
in the Dear Old Briar Patch, had
been too far away to hear the racket
Blacky the Crow had made when they
were tormenting Buster Bear. who
was trying to go to sleep under the
big windfall, deep In the Green For
est. It was Sammy Jay who told
Peter that Buster had gone to sleep.
"Where?" demanded Peter, pricking
up his long ears.
"Over In the Green Forest" retorted
Sammy Jay proyokingly.
Don't try TO be funny" snapped
Peter. "Just as II I didn't know it
was in the Green Forest that Buster
had gone to sleep. Where In the
Green Forest?"
"Oh, q certain place" replied Sam
my provokingly, and that was all the
satisfaction that Peter could get.
OF course, now nothing would do
for Peter but to get over to the Green
Forest. So the very first chance he
got that evening, when Mrs. Peter
wasn't watching, he slipped out of
the Dear Old Briar Patch and away
he raced, lippefty, lipperty, lip,
straight to the Green Forest. He got
there safely, and then he started to
look for his cousin, Jumper the Hare.
It took him quite a while, but at last
he did find Jumper.
"where is hep" demanded Peter
eagerly, as soon as greetings had been
exchanged.
where Is who?" asked Jumper,
looking puzzled.

Peter.

think you might tell me where 1t Is"
Jumper sighed. "I don't suppose
you'll give me any peace unless do"
said he Everybody in this part Of
the Green Forest knows where Buster
is. 1t Is no secret. Blacky the Grow
found out and told every one within
hearing. You follow me and I'll take
you over there"
SO the two cousins started of
through the Green Forest, Jumper
the Hare in his white coat ahead and
Peter in his gray-brown coat hopping
along behind him and having hard
work to keep up. You see, Jumper
the Hare is SO much bigger than
Peter that his hops are much longer.

he.

O buccaneers tale. Space does not

tory in detail, so that brief reference
TO the high lights will, OF necessity,

II your intellectual curiosity has not
already prompted you to inquire, we
can enlighten you regarding those
two small buttons on the back Of all
tailcoats. Although they now serve
only a decorative purpose, they COM
memorate an important military dis
covery. ..
COME tactical genius commanding
the British 4th Dragons in the
battle of Salamanca in 1912 found
he could hook up the heavy tails OF
the infantry uniform coat by placing
two buttons in the position in which
we still find them-thus removing q
serious impediment to rapid move
ment. While you may never wear
your tailcoat astride a horse, that
split in the tails is an ingenious de-
vice dating back to the days when
men had need to part the tails in the
middle over the saddle of horse.
IT WAS q lieutenant colonel Of the
Horse Guards who deserves credit
for the first overcoat for formal eve
ming wear. The modern one we've
shown here still retains the broad,
sweeping lines of this first evening
overcoat, which was similar to the
Inverness cape, still most fashionable
for this purpose.
Three stage-door Johnnies Of the
early nineteenth century were the first
to wear hats for formal evening wear
that bore definite resemblance to
the currently accepted lines OF the
opera hat.
The familiar tailcoat in somber
black and white, as we know 1t today,
was introduced by Ball Hughes, who
was the criterion Of masculine dress
in England about the year 1928. He
was the first to replace the knee
breeches with long trousers for eve
ming wear. Notifications continued
up to the Victorian era, during which
period the tailcoat and accessories, as
We know them today, became the ac-
cepted dress for evening formality.
THE postwar period saw the use
- of dinner jackets even In those
places where ironbound tradition had
always indicated that only tails might
be worn. Today we note the un-
mistakable tendency to relegate the
dinner jacket to its proper place in
fashion, while tails revert to their
traditional splendor. And the mid
night blue which is now being used
extensively In the fabric for tailcoats,
because it, under strong artificial light,
intensif1es the blackneSs of the tails,
is by no means an indication that we
