LANGUAGE AND THE BIBLE. The Book That Standardized All the Dialects of Britain. Before thc'rinting of the Bible there was no English language. It was the Bible that standardized all the dia- Ic.•as of Britain and that bound them together into a living sipeech, and it was the Bible that was the foundation of the education and culture of Eng. land. As the English historian Green says, "The English people became a people of a boot. and that book WAS Use Bible." To n large degree the same is true of Germany, but it is not necessary to go back to the middle ages to find the Bible forming a nation's culture and axing its language. On many of the mission fields, espe- ciaily in Africa, the language of the natives had never been reduced to writ - Eng mail the missionary provided them with an alphabet in order that the Bible might be translated into their tongues. The Bible has then become both the language textbook and the spiritual guide of these African na- tions. In mission 'schools the world over the Bible is the language text- book. The people of the mission lands Want their children to learn the west- ern tongue, and they send them to the school. They learn the missionary's language, but in the learning they find the missionary's God.—Christian Her- ald. The Test of Greatness. When Elliston, the theatrical man- ager, went from London to his own theater at Birmingham he was known to scarcely a member of his own com- pany. On .reprimanding one of them sharply the irate actor threatened to kick him ore the stage. He rushed to the stage manager and 'asked who that man was. "Mt A," said tee manager. "A. great man, a very great man," said Elliston. "He threatened to 'dee me, the lessee of Drury Lane. Sueh a man as that must go to London. He mustn't waste his energies bora" And he engaged the actor en the spot tor Drury zoned • 0 ot 4iL • Wo 0 0 • • 0 • • 0 0• a 0 0 0 0 • 0, 0 0000000 Massey4larris TrrrLLole�ents taa �a .e3091.�.,....,...�. =.1M . zsx r•.�.+r•,xas;r ar.6 We have been re -appointed Agents for the above name:!
