CHitis« tian Science Monitor once asked and dis- cussed the question, “How Many Are a Few?” No conclusion was. reached, as there appeared to be_no definite. authority which might be cited to establish the answer. Later a correspondent in Newark called attention to the fact that a small Scotch boy had found the answer long ago, | according to a story which may be briefly related thus: The boy was entitled to a “few apples” as a prize for memorizing more verses of scripture than any other member of his Sunday school class, whereupen the texeher gave him three apples. The boy demurred, asserting that he should have eight apples. Pressed for his authority, the lad triumphantly produced it from no less a source than Holy Writ, quoting I Peter, third chapter, 20th verse, which says: 1: [Few that is, eight souls were saved ‘by water.” , His contention being incontrovertible, the bey got his eight apples. And, there- fort, “if anyone-should ask, “a-few’’ means eight.
