In the New Testament Jesus changed thinking in regard to women, the speaker pointed out. Up to this time women were regarded as chattels. Jes- us (in changing this) started the evolution of women's rights. In studying Mary and Mar- tha, Mrs. Smith suggested that we might learn to do Martha's work with Mary's mind. Mary poured the alabaster box of ointment over Jesus head. Her costliest treasure, she gave to Jesus. Then there was the courage and sympathy of the women at the Cross. She pointed out how women of to-day in seeking equality with men have brought added responsibility. In closing this address with its clearly defined points, giv- en in an easy manner, Mrs. Smith asked: How are we meet- ing our responsibility?" 0 The Bible Today A recent Occasional Bulletin of the Missionary Research Lib- rary reveals that the highest proportion of Protestant Christ- ians are to be found in the Pa- cific Area, North America, Eur- ope, and Sub-Sahara Africa —in the order given. The sparsest population is in the Middle East and North Africa; less than one percent of Asia is Protestant Christian. About eight percent of the world's population today is Protestant, 17 percent is Roman Catholic, and five per- cent is Orthodox and Ancient Eastern, a total of 30 percent. The need for greater Scrip- ture distribution is revealed by the fact that if present rates of growth in world population and in the Christian community continue, the proportion by the year 2000 A.D. may be only five percent of the people on our globe. The total distribution of the Scriptures in 1959 reported through the United Bible So- cieties, the co-operative body in which 23 Bible Societies work together, was 29,538,629. The yearly increase in world population, as reported' by the United Nations is betss .en 47,000,000 and 49,000,000. Suggested Bible Readings Sunday Luke 19: 1-10 Monday Deut. 8: 1-20 Tuesday ....
