How Noah Built His Ark, % • Is Told by Kansas Woman
Research Worker Declares ‘First’ Liner Was Roomy, Airy, Comfortable. Editor'* Note: Tor many year* Noah's Ark hay been an interesting but puzzllnc sublect for speculation Wonder as to how the primitive shipwright could have fashioned a boat large enough to carry * the tremendous cargo Noah took with him: an impression that the Ark contained only oue window, and resulting doubt that people and animals could have lived In such a vast. u.-venUlatod hulk: and a general lack of any clear idea of what the boat was rtary like, have combined to lead many people to doubt the teory of the Ark. But Mrs. Frances E. Siewert of Clay Center. Kan., who has devoted years to research In the Bible and other ancient records, believes she can tell how the Ark was designed and built. The following story was written by her expressly for NEA Service and The Indianapolis Times. By France* E. Siewert Covurioht. 19tS. SEA Service Considering what a subject of Interest Noah's Ark has always been, it is remarkable with how much mystery it has during the centuries. Hebrew scriptures are rich in the essential details concerning this noble craft, and archaeological discoveries contribute much to an understanding of how it was designed. The fact that the children of the men who were in the Ark lived to see and perhaps direct the building of other ships, generations later,' seems to have been overlooked. Copied AfMr the -Ark Although these erubeequept vessels were very small, it seerrja reasonable to suppose that their general features were copied after the Ark. If we may Judge by the early pictures, which reach back to the time of the sons of Noah, the stern and prow of the Ark were probably square, tapering back ufidbrneath as they reached the waterline, and the roof was^flat. The Genesis story describes the Ark as being a great ship not less than 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high. Up until about 1850 A. D., no ship of such size had ever been built, but since that time all large ships are more or less modeled on the Ark’s proportions. Os the world’s steamships of more than 10,000 tons today, less than 8 per cent have a greater breadth and depth than Noah's Ark. Large Enough The Ark was easily large enough to carry all its cargo. When one remembers that the fish stayed In the sea, that the space required by the insects was almost negligible, that the snakes and lizards together numbered only' a little more than 2,000 pairs, that the average size of the perhaps 1,700 pairs of mammals was no greater than that of a small poodle dog, and that with ceilings 14 feet high the 10,000 pairs of caged birds could easily have been provided for, the problem becomes greatly simplified. It Is quite amazing to the uninitiated to discover how much an ordinary box car will hold; yet the capacity of the Ark was equivalent to that of thirty freight trains composed of twenty cars each. Three Stories High The Ark was three stories high, hut less than two stories were needed for the animals. Modern ocean ves-
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
sels allow 20 square £eet of floor space for a huge .px, and their ceilings are low. Jf an average of from 9 to 10 square feet had been allowed for each pair of mammals In the Ark. none of them, would have had to be lodged on thexecond floor. Noah's family probably had builtin compartments on the top floor. We need not worry, for instance, about how the occupants of the Ark got their drinking: water and disposed of their garbage; r*eent excavations in the city of Nippur? which dates back nearly to that time, have disclosed a sewage system unsurpased by that of any modem city. Artists Blamed Much of the misunderstanding of the ark is due to pictures which artists have drawn of It, their representations of It ranging size’from a county fair pavilion down to a large henhouse: sav of which would have been sorely-taxed to bold the required cargo, even If the animals had been stuffed through hole in the pof, like our childhood toy arks. No life could possibly have existed under such conditions. In addition, the artists have either disregarded the plain Biblical story of one window to each floor of the ark or have made that window a tiny one a foot and ahalf square. Obvi-' ously, ventilation, light and sanitation woufd have been impossible under such conditions. V Much Window Space There was one window in the ark to every story. That window was 9. foot and a half high and extended clear around the sides and ends of each story Just below the ceiling. The three windows had a combined space of 4,725 square feet. Placed around the top of each story, they conformed to the best modern ideas .►about the circulation of air. Over these windows were built light awnings of wood. They projected so far that the people in the ark could not get an unobstructed view of things outside; hence, when the ark landed, Noah '“had to send birds out to find out if the waters had totally receded. No Births • There were no births on the Ark. Eight people went into it, and eight people came out of It. Reproduction among the animals was controlled by segregation. Meat up to that time apparently was not used for food; but butter and milk must have been plentiful, for while only one pair each of the "unclean” animals was taken aboard, there were seven pairs of each of the “clean” beasts, which would include cows and sheep. The flood began In May and Noah and his companions were busily engaged with their indoor stock farm for a year and ten days. They put a great number of __ coops, cages, stalls, kennels and so on into the Ark, and probably raised many of the animals they saved. Bpending years before the flood in collecting others. After . the commanq was given to put the animals aboard. Noah and his sons had a whole week to do the loading. No Long Procession That the animals marched Into the Ark in a Jong procession, as if they were hypnottized, is a myth. There was no miracle either in the building or the loading of the great ship; none was needed. “There were giants in those days,” and even if were not Noah had been given 120 years in which to carry out-God’e plan. That Noah spent these years begging other people to come Into the Ark, and that no one responded to his pleading. Is another fallacy. The Ark had been constructed exclusively for Noah, his family and the animals. He warned the people to live righteously and escape the wrath that was to come, and those who heeded his call seem to have been merifully removed from the earth before the flood.

Dithmer reports that business is “exceptionally good.” He says that demands throughout the city and suburban territory are being satisfactorily handled. “We have a capacity of 350 tons of Ice a day, and with adequate storage ice, we are able to meet the most unusual hot weather requirements.” Dithmer said. "We plan to take care of the peak periods of the summer and the hot weather demands are adequately handled by our firm. We have established community lie stations where ottr patrons in almost every section of the city may go to get their ice if they should fail to notify us or our drivers of their ice requirements. This station means a saving to consumers, too. “We handle scored Ice, which means our customers are sure of getting accurate weight—yes, overweight In many cases. A special machine cuts a deep mark In the blocks of Ice before they are .loaded on drivers’ wagons. These scored marks prevent breakage and takes the guess-work weighing out of business."
