Mr. Johnson gave out his first nterview since his return to tbe United States, after reporting to the National Geographic socletv in Washington While in Tunisia Mr Johnson conducted extensive researches among the baried Roman cities, and traced the old Roman highways, which have been hidden for centuries by the shiltlug sands of the Sahara.

Our modern Ufa has been enriched ; tn a notable way through the tine arts All men and worn en and children, educated and un educated, rich and poor, have been cheered and refreshed by the glory of architecture, the delicacy of sculpture, the refinement of painting and the thrilling rapture of music. All the artists have been stirred into a tumult of thought and feeling by the revelations of the Bible. When the archi tect wished to express his deep conceptions of the worship of God. he lifted his vaulted ceiling into th air and pushed his twin spires up as high as they could possibly be carried Not only was the cathedral made In the form of the cross, but every part of the building Is rich in the symbolism of form and number and color. It was no wonder that Thorwald sen wept after he had finished his Christus, tho most glorious marble in the world, because be found himself unable to think of anything more godlike. No man of refinement can keep his hat on while standing before that colossal figure. The painters have the same themes. Consider Raphael with his "Transfiguration" and his "Slstine Madonna." Leonardo with his "Last Supper." Angelo with his Last Judgment." Guido with bis Ecce Homo." and Murillo with his "Immaculate Conception." How monotonous and utterly barren would be the music of the world without the Bible. Handel has been described as the great originator of the oratorio aa we know it today. In his list or oratorios In English we have as themes. "Esther." "Deborah." "Saul." Israel tn Egypt," "Joseph." ; Joshua." "Belshazzar." "Samson." . "Judas Maccabaeus" and "The Messiah." which will live forever as one of th? profoundeat worka of human genius. Haydn, with his "Creation." j Beethoven, with hia Mount of Olives." 1 Oounod. with his "Redemption. " Lint. 1 with his "Christas." MacFarren. with his "John the Baptist." Mendelssohn, with his "St. Paul." his "Hymn of Praise," his "Klijah" and his Chris tus" Rossini, with his 'Stabat Mater." Spobr. with his "Last Judgment." and all the mighty compoeers. with Their glorious music, overwhelmed by the truth that God was In fhrist. reconciling the world unto Himself, tell a thrilling story mi the inspirational power of he Bible.

I take a practical view of the Bible. I am not competent to Indulge In either the higher criticism or the lower criticism of the book. 1 sm not compctf,nt. pcrhsps. to add anything to what has been said about Its literary value; although from my own experience I can confirm all that has been said about its importance in the education of the intellect. But I do feel that I am entirely competent to speak of it in Its relstlon to the spirit of man. It is this after all which is the practical aspect of the book For every hundred persons who can Intelligently discuss the theories of Biblical criticism there are literally million who are or ought to be intensely interested In what the Bible can do for them in their ordinary everyday living. I'nfortunately the Bible Is largely still an unknow n book. Although It Is the "best seil r" the world It Is till read by comparatively few people Absurd misquotations of the Bible In newspapers, magazines, books, public addresses, and conversations, and the failure of people generally to under stand allusions to Its contents or cor

proofs of this, but they suggest the greater fact that it is not tho guide book of human life that Its great circulation would seem to imply The real test of any book la what effect it has upon, first, the thinking, and then the living of those who read It. The Hihi Is emphatically a book

which, if read with open mind, muat i profound!) change the ineamna and purpose of one'n life. It is true that there Is more Bible reading and study. - .-I. ..,;!.. , f an organized kind, today than ever before There are more men and women than at any other t:me who really do love mercy and do justly and walk in this world as sons and daughters of God and brothers and sisters; but It la equally true that if the actual number of Bibles published this year were read and stud ied as they might be, there would be Bjajph an increase In the number of tnose who are living right as would transform our civilization Of course the practical question for the individual is. What are you getting out of the Bible? You will be surprised to find how little you are getting out of it. even if you are more than ordinarily a reader of it. It takes tho same persistent and senaible effort to get wealth out of that book as to get wealth out of business. The only difference is that ths wealth of the book is so much greater and tlner axd more lasting Most of us have this as an undeveloped property of great potential value. We read about it and we talk about it. but we are only in the prospectus stage of this Important undertaking If we go forward and act just as we would to develop business, putting into the undertaking equal zeal and wisdom, we shall get out of it actual wealth, for which we might well give all the money in the world.

M The English language and literature have in forty years become one of ths great parts of ed ucation To know the language. Its origin in several other languages, the history of its growth; to know also the masterpieces of its litersture. to appreciate the beauty and force of these m asterple ces, have become one of the broad ideals of the true student Such knowledge baa been recognised as a touch -stone of culture, a rich resource of personal happiness, a most effective means of fellowship with noble-minded humanity This literature is woven through and through with tbe Hible The Üble heroes and villains are its example; the Hible maxims its commonplaces, ths Bible facts its allusions; the Pible theology its philosophy : the Bible commands Its ethics; tbe Bible prophecies its poetry The two most outstanding poets of th- literary world s i.ee . ttje's u ath are Tennyson and Browning Hundreds of pages of these masters contain Hiblical allusions "Old things shall pass awa and all be new" Th-- great word which makes all things new" "In the house not made with bands' are t iree examples of scores of pas- ' sages of Robert Browning. The titles of three of his greatest poems sre taken directly from the Bible: "Saul," Karshish. ' and A Death in the Desert." No one can properly understand Browning or Tennyson who does not know his Bible, and as for their predecessor. John Milton, is not Paradise lost largely an interpretation, or translation of the book itself?
