- PRINTING THE BIBLE.
}[;'rom the Albany Herald, :
)l No other- 190 k has'been published
on anything like the vast gcale "to
tother book s printed in as mahy lan-:
|guages and diglects. If all the Bibles
:ln the world could l-e gathered in a

which would be an imposing monu
ment to the zeal of believers in'givingf
the Word of God to the people.-;‘j

Frank 8. Manning, representing the
American Bible Society, made an in
teresting roport last week to ihe‘
General Assembly of the Preshyterian
Church in the Uniteil States, in-scs“
sfon at Fhiladelphia. He gave some,
striking statistics in regard to the
activities of the scciety. The Biblo’
has been alrezdy translated into 650
different languages and dialects, he
said, but there are at least 400 lang
uages which are still without the Word
of God.
The greates’ cchievement of the;
gociety in the past year, Mr. Mann!’ngl
declared, was the issvauce of the ve
vised Mandarian Bikle printed in Chin
ese. He said this Bible would reach
400,000,000 people, cIER
The sg{:ond problem oi‘ the sg@c:iety,l
accordirg to My. Manping, is the ac
tual making' of thébook. The liress:e:;!
tarny out; ahbout! 6,000,000 wolumes

s o the time t‘eqfifi't‘d to place only
“a piece of the Seriptures.in the hands
¢f every man, woman and child in the
:worid. He said it would take 40 yenr.;.
provided theyc were no deaths or
births wnd provided mo copies of the
Bible wore out in the meantime. . |
The third problem is one of cift
culation, avds he declared that this i 3
the groatest of all, 6 it
. The spokesmen for the Bible So
ciety told the Presbyterians that their
¢hurch had failed to provide elj
quately for x};ltiug the Bible to those
who have never seen it, and said the
churches gewnerally had seem>d not to
appreciate the importance of uphold
ing the work of Bible extension. ;
When all that has been dona is cons
gidered. it comes as rather a .stm'tling
rovelotion that, theve still are at least
£OO languages in which the Rook of
Books has not hecn printed. J
