The Bible Today The first Bible edition pro­ duced by a Bible Society for mentally retarded children was published recently by the Neth­ erlands Bible Society. The first in a series “What the Bible tells us1,” th© edition contains the story of the birth of Jesus from the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, under the title “Jesus is bom.” The edition was planned by a special committee composed of Protestant and Roman Catholic experts to the education of re­ tarded children, and represent­ atives of the Netherlands Bible Society. Under their profession­ al 'guidance, a Dutch transla­ tion was produced with very 'Simple, short sentences. The book, which is strongly bound, is largely comiposed of illustra­ tions to four colours, specially designed for the need!s of this type of child. A gramophone re­ cord is also available which can be used with the book, giv­ ing the same Bible text, with hymns 'and music and a simple meditation. The project arose as the re­ sult of a plea from teachers of mentally retarded children, for wfhom no suitable books on the , Bible were available. Interest in the project has al­ ready ibeeh shown to other countries, and some Bible So­ cieties are planning to use the illustrations for editions in other languages.

Now, Louis reclines in lux­ ury on an annual allowance of about $4,000, the amount it bakes to keep the parrot to brandy and crackers and pay his private bondsman , to tidy his cage. One small problem looms on the horizon for poor Loaded Louis, 'and a solution will not be easily found. Louis is' 101 years old and his estate has dwindled to a paltry $20,000! Before you con­ clude that Louis should double his intake 'Of brandy and switch to eating eclairs before death robs him of the balance of his inheritance, let me point out that Louis could live to be 20Q. Just roughly speaking, iit could mean that Louis will have to manage on 30 or 35 dollars per year for the next century! If Louis takes his. cue from human behaviour, he will dis­ cover there are several courses of action open to him. He can sip triple brandies till he’s sloshed, stay that way un­ til his brandy supply is exhaust­ ed and then screech for assis­ tance from the government or anyone who happens to take pity on him. ‘i—.................. .............................. He could put Oh a dignified front, sit tall on his perch, count his pennies secretly and give no indication of his rinan- rial plight, hopeful that the tide will turn in time to save him, He might smooth his feath­ ers, polish his beak and attract some other monied mistress. Who will pay his brandy.and biscuit bills, Or he could sell his ‘fine home and switch to beer and dry bread on a rented roost, Chances are though that the poor parrot will live on, oibliv? ious to his eventual eviction to some pet shop or other. Like his human counterpart, Louis will be forgotten in his old age unless someone, somewhere has compassion.
