Goth Century TRANSACTIONS

THESE modern-English transla.
tons of the Bible haven't
changed the Book; they are simply
helping the reader to get back to the
ideas Of the original apostles and
prophets; they are putting the Bible
again into the language people &C.
tually speak
Some OF the more important yer.
sions may be noted here Practical
ly all the churches OF Protestant
North America have been co-opora-
ting through the International
Council OF Religious Education,
In producing what is called the RE
vised Standard Version" Of which
the New Testament is already out.
and very popular too The whole
Bible In this version is due to be
off the press by September 1852
This is an ex client version
for church or litntglcal use. as
II keeps close 10 the King James
rhythm wherever II can: for
the King James version. what
ever its faults. has a rhythm
about parts Of II notably the
Psalms) which has never been
surpassed.
Two other TRANSACTIONS have been
before the public, and have won
many friends. for a score OF years
now; Moffat's, and the American
Translation by Goodspeed, imp,
Smith and others This latter in
cludes the Apocrypha. to which
most Protestants are strangers).
AT One Sitting
THE average reader. used to TAX
! ing his Bible in snippets OF
verse or two. or a chapter at most.
at one time, win find that he can
sit down with one OF these modern
translaiions and just read on and
on. fascinated by the book he has
discovered for the first time.
One Of the hardest" yet
most importan, parts OF the
Bible. for instance, Is the
Epistles section Of the New
Testament. Every one OF these
epistlcs is a short letter, but
how few persons ever read one
straight through Let the read
er who is puzzled by the Epistles
get a copy Of Letters to Young
Churches" a translation by J. Is.
Phillips. and he will find that
dark part Of the New Testament
simply opening up and shining.
The work Of translating will go on
and on as long as language keeps
changing let us thank God for all
those who in our time have been
making the Word Of God again an
open book for all men.

NOT A "MESHORRER"

The Hebrew word meshorrer
means a singer in a choir and it
also means poet. When the fam
GUS Hebrew poet Bialik visited
this country some years ago, he
asked that they look up neph-
ew of his who worked at the
lowly occupation of truck driv-
ing in Connecticut.
When the truck driving Bialik
was found and told that his uncle
a famous Hebrew meshorrer, was
visiting in the country, he ex-
pressed amazement.
"A meshorrer," he said, "why,
my uncle never. sang in a syna-
gogue choir"

Further evidence that the Jew

growth of B'nai Birth in this

That the Jewish expansion has
been in every direction-North.
South. East and Vests attested
to by the the development of
Jewish centers in all of the sub
urban communities which have
mushroomed since the termina-

In the l947 Study-the last un-

year-round Jewish population
was given as 100000. Assuming
that the Jewish community is
growing at the same rate as the
general community = that is,
nine per cent per year = Kopelo-
witt estimates that there has
been q per cent hike in the
number of Jewish residents since
the last census and sets the pres
ent figure slightly more than 50,-

1igious school enrolment.
Other observers, many of
whom hold key positions in the
Jewish community, challenge
Kopelowitz' statistics, claiming
that they are unduly conserva-
tive. These people would set the
count at somewhere between 55,-
900 and $4,000.
In support of their contention.
they point to Sunday school en-
rollment. which has jumped
from l.240 in l947 to 2.384 this
past year. This represents almost
a 100 per cent increase. 328 more
students attended Hebrew class
es during the past year than in
l947. a jump of over SO per cent.
The rise in religious school en-
rollment, however, may be part
ly attributed to the fact that
schools have been established in
all the suburban areas and are
more accessible than they were
three years ago.
Regardless of which estimate is
correct. no one would deny that
the Jewish population has risen
meteoricallY in the last ten years.
Evidence of the spectacular
growth is on every hand.
Chronicling this growth, Nor

from tuberculosis continue to de-

cent of all deaths from infectious
and parasitic maladies iii 1949 in
the U. S.
Accordingto director DR.. James
E. Perkins, the decline in tuber-
cular deaths is tagging far behind
other diseases comparably classifi-
ed. Among these diseases are in
fluenza, poliomyelitis, typhoid
fever, whooping cough, scarlet
fever, veneral disease and un-
dulant fever.
The tuberculosis association ur-
ges all persons to undergo regular
periodic medical checks for this
most murderous malady. If detect

ately, afflicted persons can be
cured, but if allowed tor gain a
foothold, death may result.

IA Word to the Beoux About Bouquets
By John Robert Powers

The biggest day on the fash
ion calendar is almost here. Some
times. as I see Dame Fashion turn
the pages of her date book. am
a little amused that she insists on
constantly changing her ideas!
Yet so many of Dame Natures
subjects are best left the same.
The appealing bunny with white
coat, pink nose and big ears never
has to change a whisker! The
beautiful. stately lily never has
to change its color. The gay voices
OF children. the sunny spring day.
the soft, balmy air, the warm
friendly greeting. they're always
the same. And nobody would have
them any other way.
Why does Dame Fashion find it
necessary to make changes in
styles all the time? 1t could be
because she's learned that a touch
of the new makes each year one to
remember. Think that over! Each
of our Easter companions is the
same woman in new spring trap
pings. We wouldn't want her to
be a different person.
But the effort and care she has
put into her new costume
shouldn't be lost on you. You
