As a hook of romance the Bible reveals the truth that is stranger than fic tion. Joseph became prime minister in Egypt because of his innate worth and the ^ame is true of Daniel in Babylon. As he had been a marked man under the Chaldean rule, so he teas preferred by Darir the Mede who became the conqueror. The jrovemmenflpl organlzplitni consist ed «-? 120 -atraps with three presi dent*. Daniel was the leading presi dent. The fact that he was a Jew led to much jealousy by the other officials and they planned to do away with him if possible. Religion offered the one sure ground of attack, for these evil men were certain what Daniel would al ways d<> in his relationship with God. With Daniel’s dependable habits in mind it was agreed at the caucus to appeal to the king’s pride and pro- po;c that a decree be promulgated forbidding anyone to pray during thirty days except as Darius was the nbpect of their approach. The penal, ty for disobedience was to be cast into the den of lionr. Sypers were watching Daniel who i had the known habit of praying to Jehovah at least three times a day. He’ would open the windows in the direction of Jerusalem, &tH» miles awuy 6> the airplane now flies, and , kneel d ou^ly n his approach to the ( Throne f Jehovah. The de As a part of their program in ! suppressing the spread of contagious 1 diseases and in their efforts to pre vent epidemics, physicians and vari- ou- health organizations have advo- i rated for years the administration of certain vaccines and sera to ac complish these ends.

Those who lik:* their history pure are finding fault with the pictured version of the home of Thomas Jefferson on the re verse side of the bill. The crux of the controversy is that the engraving of Monticello, Jefferson's home, shows two beauti ful lions placed there not by the former president, but by Jefferson pear. The Health Department has funds to provide sufficient serum to protect a certain number of children.

So the history purists are alarned over the error, while those who don't care one way or the other about the lion* are possibly getting just about as much for their two-dollar bills as if the beasts weren’t there at all. Th'.- discovery was made by Gene Ogilvie, manager of the University Branch of the Feople’s National Bank of Charlottesville, but the picture has been attracting considerable atten tion of pedants throughout the country. The images of the two lions were placed one on each side of the veranda of the Jefferson mansion by Mr. Levy, but when the Thon^as Jefferson Memorial Foun dation bought the estate the beasts were taken away. Their where about* today are not known so far as can be learned. Treasury officials are as yet un able to say whether the story of the lions is accurate. They thought the picture they used was all right, and no official protests agauist it huve been received.
