BIBLE OFFERS PINNACLE OF GOOD READING Appeases Most Virile Mind, Presenting Stiff Fights, Intrigue, Adventure. BEVERIDGE IS EXPONENT Special to The Times. FT. W AVNE, March 2S.—Albert J. Beveridge discussed “The Bible as Good Reading" in an address at the Y. M. C. A. here Sunday afternoon. The former United States Senator declared the Holy Writ to be “the best compendium In existence of entertaining literature.” While in the United States Senate Mr. Beveridge wrote several magazine articles upon the same subject, which finally were collected into a small book. He told how he came to discover the Bible to contain the best reading to be found anywhere and how he came to write the articles “When a boy of 14 I went logging.” said the speaker. “There was literally nothing to read, except a Bible, which I found in my packet. This did not attract me; rather it repelled me. We had what was at that time called ‘Bible tradings' In our house; and these readings were done with much solemnity, such unctuous severity, aud there was about these exercises such an atmosphere of gloom that I could not imagine anything more depressing than to read what I had so often heard under such uninspiring circumstances. “ENTRANCING AND HUMAN PAGES.” “However, it was either the Bible or nothing; so finally one night I opened the book and began to read. I was astounded; for here was no dullness, no preachments, no scourging nor rod of punishment. Instead here was the most entrancing and thoroughly human pages that I ever had read. American history had been my chief delight up to that time—the real history of our country, and not the denatured, colorless and misleading stuff that Is now passed up to us. But I found the Bible history stories more captivating even than the absorbing narrative of the heroic deeds of the men who founded our republic. So that is how I became interested hi the Bible, merely as a matter of literature—not in the least as a matter of religion or of ethics, mind you, but Just as a matter of entertaining reading. From that day to this whatever other books I take with me on journeys, 1 always include she Bible, because when 1 get tired or bored with the other volumes. I always can lay them down and pick up the Bible and find entertainment and relief.” During one of h!s vacations, while a Senator. Mr. Beveridge and a college classmate went on a trip Into the wilds of Maine. Both being thoroughly tired out. It was decided to take absolutely no books along. Mr. Beveridge, however, slipped a Bible into the pack and off they went to lose themselves from the world. For four or five days they did not feel the desire to read and then the lack of literature began to be felt. Mr. Beveridge produced the Bible only to be berated by his friend, who said he wanted “to be entertained and not bored to death with exhortations to be good.” GOOD BOOK HAS MANY ADVENTURES. “But,” said Mr. Beveridge, “do you really know what there is in the Bible? What would you like? Would you like to hear a story of a good stiff fight, or of red-blooded love making, or of intrigue and adventure, or would you like seme poetry, or some philosophy? ,Or how would some sound, practical business advice suit you? Because you can find any of these right here in this Book.” Twice daily the Bible was read thereafter. Mr. Beveridge said, and it got so interesting that the guides asked to be included in the circle. The articles grew out of this trip. Wayne County Man Good Roads Delegate Special to The Times.
