IS RECORD BIRLE
Immense Volume Now Nearinf
Completion in England.
Book WIH Ba by Far the i Vol*
ume That Haa Evar Baan Con.
atruoted ? Definite Purpose
in lt? Production.
Khgllsh Bfble plans for 15)21 con tor
around tho production of the wiiiid'i
lurgeM Itlble, ikiIch tho I 'or t la ud (>i*?
goulau.
Mouths of work hnve already been
expended upon It. Many weeks mqre
will be needed foir Its completion. Al
ready, liovwvrr, tha frame of the great
book Ik in being. Six stout heut|>en
ropes, much thicker than the ardluury
Clothesline, are Its backbone. Kour of
these me laced Into millboards half an
Inch thlek a foundation for the
leather covering. The back of the
book is sewed with twine round the
Hlx stout hempen ropes in the old
fashioned way.
In every sense the biggest Bible la
intended to be the fluent example of
book" making that Knglnnd can pro
dace.
But why produce the biggest Blble??
The answer to this question was given
by the "Bible Crusade" as follow?:
"The great Bible Is Intended to rivet
public attention on the primary Im
port a nee of the Bible an tho fountain
and source of all truth. As this unique
volume Is umuulfled in mI/o above all
other volumes, so the grandeur of the
Blhle ought to he magulfled In value
above that of all other books."
A feature *.af the great Bible la that
It will be written entirely by hand.
Npt more than throe verses of the text
will he written by the same person.
Kings and . field marshals will, side by
aide with paupers and workmen, tes
tify their belie? lw tl^e holy irriptures.
At the side of ti.e piece of text which
they write all will sign their names to
the following:
"As my testimony that I acknowl
edge the -Bible ? iih or'gjnally Riven to
mankind ? to be 'as it is in truth, the
word of God.' I append my signature."
Th^? biggest Bible, when completed,
will not only be the largest example of
the word of God, but it will constitute
the world's completest autogj;fipb al
bum, with signatures, it is anticipated,
of most prominent English and for
eign men and women from kings
downward. Twelve thousand people
will he needed to complete the text.
Twelve large goatskins have been
used in providing a cover for the bil
ges* lyble.
When standing on end the volume
is more than feet 2 inches high and
nearly 3 feet 6 inches wide, so thnt
when it is opened flat it measures
about 7 feet 10 inches across.
The whole volume now lies' at the
Oxford University Press. It awaits
the advent of Bible year and the gift
by some wealthy crusader of a special
motor car which is needed to take it
on Ijts mission in England and over
seas. Perhaps the great Bible will
visit America if invited to do so. The
special car which is to be designed for
tile great book will contain a folding
pulpit and a special platform for
exhibiting the text of the biggest Bible
and the signatures.
When Vaseline Was Valuable.
About three thousand barrels of oil
have been obtained from the varloua
wells experimentally bored by the Brit
ish government in Derbyshire (Eng.)
and elsewhere. It is not a great deal.
In fact, considerably more than this
must have been yielded altogether by
the famous Balm well,' situated at St.
Catherine's near Edinburgh, which
during several centuries exuded a sub
stance we now know to have been
genuine petroleum. No one ever seems
have thought of refining the crude
oil and usinfc it for Illuminating pur
poses; but it was in great repute as
? remedy for skin complaints, and
people so afflicted came from fur and
near to obtain supplies of it. Espe
cially esteemed was the solidified pe
troleum which was scraped from In
side the well near the bottom, and
which used to be retailed, under the
ftatoe of Balm of Sinai, for as much
as a sovereign an ounce. Today one
can buy an ounce of the same sort
of stuff ? vaseline ? from nny chemist
for h few cents.
Keeps Out Draughts, Admits Light.
A new arrival among shades is the
celluloid window shade, used to keep
out draughts, says the Popular Science
Monthly.' It is fastened to a regular
spring shade roller and Iih* the cus
tomary stick through its lower end.
Von attach" it to the top of the win
dow frame just as you would nn ordi
nary shade. Being transparent, it J of
not obstruct the view. The ends uf
the stick may be fitted In grooves In
the frame to k4?<-p she celluloid from
curling.
Now let some one Invent a shade
that will shut out the light without
shotting out the air. This Is far more
needed, especially In summer time.

Nation of Home-Owners Bids Defiance
to Red Terror Attacking World.
By MRS. L. F. EPPICH, Denver.
In feudal time* the laborers made no effort to own their own homes.
Tkeir dwellings were provided /or them by tiic foudal lords. Out of this
gTew the great- tenantry class, which in the origin of the renting habit
of today.
In outgrowing feudalism the world should outgrow this tonaUry
condition: We should emerge into an individualism which demand the
individual home and the complete ownership of iV.
The laws of individuality and of community life express themselves
in the well-being of family life. No community whieh is made up of
renters can express much force in politics nor in civic matters. Owner
ship makes the voter interested in community affairs and pride of posses
sion instils a pride in the (immunity which nothing else can give. A
certain independence and moral backbone accompanies homo ownership
and the theories of American citizenship become more the facts and less
the dreams of such people.
Ah regards children, they see no interest displayed in the rented
abode. They see no tree planting and painting and personal pride of
possession that they may emulate in their ambitions. Rather, 'they natu
rally grow without the true incentives that make of them good neighbors
and good citizens. , ! ? _
'A nation of home owners will survive the insidious red doctrine of
decadence that is grasping at the throat of all nations today.
