Gideons Mark
Historic Event
An historic milestone is being
comrnemorated this week as the
five millionth S c r i p t u r e is
placed in circulation by The
Gideons International in Can-
ada. A beautiful gold -covered
Bible will be presented to the
management of the Royal York
Hotel, Toronto, at a special
function on Saturday, April 23.
Travellers, hospital patients,
prison inmates and many others
are aware of the activities of
The Gideons but few know how
this organization started its
world-wide operations.
A bedtime conversation be-
tween two rhrictian salesmen,
who were sharing a room in a
crowded hotel, led to the found-
ing of the well-known lay move-
ment in 1899. Today there are
22.700 members in 73 countries;
2,150 of these members are Ca-
nadians, organized into 169
local branches, called Camps.
Members work quietly and
unobtrusively in their commun-
ities, seeking to give s iri•tnal
and moral uplift to others.
Gideons, themselves, voluntar-
ily provide about 30% of the
Canadian budget of $400,000.
The balance comes from inter-
ested Christian friends and
through the operation of a
memorial Bible plan.
The first Bibles were placed
in a Canadian hotel by the Gid -
eons in 1911. By 1952 the first
million •copies had been distrib-
uted. The three millionth mile-
ston was reached in 1961, in-
dicating the ceaseless activity
of this modern Gideon army.
Internationally, four million
Scriptures are distrubted yearly.
A major program in Canada
involves the annual presenta.
tion of more than 200,000 New
Testaments with 'psalms and
proverbs to grade five public
school children. And thousands
of Bibles have been placed in
the dormitory rooms of college
and university students. A
ladies' auxiliary present attrac-
tive white bound Testaments to
student nurses,
