NEW TESTAMENT_REVISED Eminent Bible ‘stholars) sof North America, after working for CAWBTARI will issue a reviséd standard Nersidm ohh New Testament next month. The committee for, revision of the translation of the scriptures was formed in 1930, being authorized to undertake the work by forty Protestant demonina- tions composing the International Council of Religious Education. The committee has worked long and arduously in an effort to prepare a version which would eliminate the archaic lan- guage and the “inaccuracies” of the King but without surrendering its simple, classic style. News accounts indicate that the vol- James version, ume will be the first standard.

MewdA ment Greek has been evolve nee! thes publications mar of clas the New T hundred years. The idea of a revised translation of the New; Testament, will: strike some de- vout Chri. with amazement. They have been taught to believe, and many of them have accepted, the exact word- ing of the Bible as statements whose cor- rectness had the guarantee of the Creator himself. We doubt if the revision will make any sensational changes, but every indivi- dual, interested in the New Testament, realie that what we pos sa translation which, like all translations, re- s revision in the light of a better un- derstanding of the reading of original texts. Moreover, the meaning of words in our language changes though the years and some corrections may be necessary to properly express the original gught. SAVING IN BONDS tamentdays by about three ians is An idea of the savings accumulated the American people during the war ars is gained from the statement of the reasury Department showing that in- dividuals bought more than $55,000,000,- 000 worth of war bonds between May 1, 1941 and December 31, 1945. Only 18.81 per cent, have been redeemed. These figures indicate that, despite fact that the war ended nearly six months ago, the people of this country re- tain close to $45,000,000,000 worth of war bonds. The po: ion of the bonds con- stitutes tremendous potential buying power, but,*more important, is the fact that they represent a fort of financial seeurity, to millions of Améfigans.\, ; While it may be pceessaty; citizens to sell bonds, fy order financial obligations“and, to plan “qpisély for the future, the longer, the bonds\ate held the greater the interest received. In addition, it is a nice feeling to have some bonds in reserve to meet any emergency that might develop in the future. the a The main trouble with a cinch job is that even a picnic comes to an end. There always has been a_ housing shortage, for we read in Matthew viii, 20: “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but: the Son of Man hath not where to lay his head.” which followed the gram al Greek. which anticipated’ MUCH WORK AHEAD Too few of us, and the “us” includes everybody in the world, go to the bottom of things; instead we are prone to take a superficial view of them. “Bottom” was used purposely be- cause it aptly applies to the bottom in the Garrison Bight. To hear some of us talk, one would be led to think that, were the Inland Waterway,” terminating in“ Key West, completed: tomorrow,’ the® Garrison Bight would he ready toyproyide anchgr- age for yachts, cabin cruisers.and almost any other kind of craft. The fact is, many tens ofthousands of dollars will have to be spent to dredge out the bight before it could acommodate a yacht, say, of 80 feet. In most parts of the bight, at low tide, it «is difficult to pole a skiff over them, and a dingey would run ashore. One man, who had comtemplated dredging out a channel in the bight, in connection with other improvements, thought that pos- sibly he would have been able to dredge the channel and pay for it with the money he received in selling the marl obtained in doing that work. Sale of the marl would ) provide only a small fraction of the cost of dredging. Larger yachts would requiré a mean depth of at least 14 feet and smaller ones seven to nine feet. At present;small boats, drawing only two feet or so, on entering the former drawbridge opening, are turn- \@d_ ‘sharply from’ southeast to ‘southwest and hug a shallow channel that runs along the grade, and, on nearing its end, turn sharply to the southeast to reach the small wharf off the foot of Petronia street. Much work, at a tremendous cost, must be done in the bight before it will have water deep enough to accommodate a sizeable yacht. The newspapers are giving a good deal of attention to news about the stock market and stocks—most of which is ‘purely guessing. If you want the right kind of information and advice, follow’ the xample of the citizen with some savings, mekem a friend who. he.thought .was mee: “What stocks’ should T buy?” HE URGE’ ‘TO 'SERVE Qne good result has ‘come out of the various politica] proposals for state medi- cine in the United States. All over the country plans are being launched to’ pro- yide tht public’ with prepaid medical ¢are. A typi¢al plan allows, individua] subscrib- ers with incomes of up to $1,800 a year, to pay 52 cents a month, a husband and wife $1.12, and a family with an income up to $2,500, two dollars for surgical operations, the treatment of fractures and dislocations and ‘pre-natal and post-natal maternal care. While this plan.covers the most ser- ious of family medical problems, it does not cover ordinary sickness. A plan to do that and give the worker or other insured a chance to have the diagnostic and ther- apeutic service at the lowest possible cost, will ‘be a logical develoyment. Anierican medicine is. rendering not only a patriotic sérvice, but apiiblic serv- ice from which all citizens are benefiting, assit works out ‘plans, which, spike. the agitation for municipal, state “or Federal interference in the field of medicine which, in the United States, has reached its highest development under the spur of individual incentive and opportunity. Given new fields to conquer in the way of prepaid medical plans, American medi- cine is approaching a level of public serv- ice without precedent. Don’t get sick in Key West; it is too expensive. One of the devotees of Aescula- pius told the writer that he charges what- ever the traffic will bear. There is no ceil- ing price for medical attention, evidently. INDECISION SOMEWHERE The announcement that General Dwight D. Eisenhower has issued-an order banning any further * demonstrations among the armed men, of the United States is encouraging to.Americans who believe that the Army should maintain discipline. Earlier, General McNarney, in Europe, took steps to curb parades, dem- onstrations and proteset among the men of his Army. f The sudden epidemic of. such demon- strations reflected upon the discipline of the Army of the United:States and, we are afraid, resulted in part from the indeci- sion of these occupying positions of com- mand, including the President-of the Uni- ted States. : ‘ - Mas tolbw Chapter 18 ND so peace came once more to Roselands, a peace all the more precious because each one ‘sensed a-fleeting quality about: it. Edith’ and Whit had “really never regained their first friendly footing, though outwardly ‘their relationship was one of easy fa- miliarity. Edith, trying unsuc- céssfully to recapture that first ardent admiration she had felt for him, was restless and un- happy. She spent a great deal of time at the country club and went about to many social af- fairs, to the great delight of her grandmother and Aunt Josie. She went in to town two affernoons a week to roll bandages at Red Cross headquarters and enrolled im a nurse aide class in a local hospital. She was unconsciously trying to keep herself too busy to think very deeply. She began to grow a little thin. “You’re_not doing too much, are you, Edith?” Barbara asked worriedly several times, “Of course not, Barbara. You mustn’t worry about me.” “It would be dreadful if we let you get ill!” “T’m perfectly all right. Having a wonderful time, Where are you going, anyway, this warm after- noon?” 4 = “Down to visit my, brother. I’m taking the car,. ibaa “You'd bettér. Do—dé you feel quite well? That isjoxI!'mean— would you like to have me drive} you down?” Barbara, laughed gajly, unsus-| pectingly. “Of course’ not, I'm feeling fine. And I wouldn’t think of keeping you from whatever. you’ve planned. There’ll come a time when I'll be calling on you, though!” Edith walked out to the garage to get the coupe she was to use. “I didn’t really want to go down to Burk Angus’ house,” shé told herself. “I really. did: want: to. be a help to Barbara.” “It wasn’t true! More than any- ing she could think of she would have liked to. sit. with those two. in the peace, and. quiet of the cool parlour this afternoon. There was no use being silly about it! No use trying to deny her feelings! For days she had been wanting to see Burk again. He didn’t like her—he had very plainly shown that—but never- theless she wanted to see him. She wanted to prove somet‘iing to herself. She wanted to make sure that the thing she had dis- covered in the movie that night was false. She wanted to find out| by for certain that Burk Angus had no attraction for her. It couldn’t be true, mustn’t be! No use let- ting herself in for. that sort of, heart-ache. T was several days later that| home. she first noticed that Whit was beginning to stay away from home a great deal. No one seemed to question his algae to be away as often as he liked, but she noticed that Barbara began t droop in a way that was traceable! to neither the weather nor her condition. / “Where does Whit. go ; every night?” Edith finally ventured fto ask Aunt Josie. “Heaven: only ).knows!” answered’ in ‘her uncertain way. “He's ‘very ‘po: > you He gets invit || then he: likes to. play cards in town.” -~—— ; “It seems like! he'd be more consi iddrate ‘of Barbara’ —, stay with her more.” “Whit’s never been used'to—” “To considering others,” Edith said sharply, and felt Her Aunt Josie’- puzzled gaze upon her. It just never occurred to Josie that anyone should question her er- ratic brother’s movements. But Edith knew that several times he had been drinking when he came about’a lot—anid| c, in, From her window one night when she could not sleep she saw old Jake helping him into the house from his car. , laura wrote that. it was, ter- ribly warm in New York and | that Edith was fortunate to be spending the summer in the countrys be ee she and: Chris were entire) lappy, except that they missed Edith: She wondered. if Edith were. not beginning to, think of coming home soon. : Edith knew that no time limit had really been set on her visit. She would be at liberty to go at any time she wished.
