THE BOOK OF BOOKS
By EVE SEITER
If you knew you were to
be marooned alone on a
desert island or confined
in solitary imprisionment
and were permitted the
choice of one book to eas.
your loneliness, what sin-
gle volume would you
choose? This is a provoc-
ative question. The answer
depends upon your taste,
your insight, imagination
and the daily pattern of
your thoughts.
Some of you would choose
the Bible--secure in the
knqwledge that under your
arm you carried an entire
library. You religious be-
liefs or the lack of them
would not necessarily have
prompted your choice! This
unique and inexhaustible
book siyiys all there is to
te said about God and man
but it also runs the gamut
of ethics, economics, law,
art, literature, history, ge-
ology, biology and brackets
of learning too numerous
to mention!
The very name of the
Book itself indicates its
remarkable characteristics.
The word has its original
origin in Greek etymology;
biblos or biblion, harks
back to the second millen-
nium before Christ. when
the Phoenicians of Byblos
had cornered the papryus
market ot their day. They
imposed the name of their
town on the product they
shipped from their port.
Our own use of the ex-
pression "The Holy -
Books" or simply "The
Books" goes back to the
4th. century--to the days
of St. Jerome. Low Latin
turned the word into a fem-
inine biblia-bibliae. In
everyday usage the plural
became a singular indicat-
ing the harmony, the under-
lying unity of the many
books comprising our
Bible.
The skilled sculptors of
Chartres; artists Michel-
angelo, Rembrandt, El
Greco, Hicks, Buregel and
SDrurer drew their greatest
inspiration from the Bible.
Writers,-Shakespeare, Goe-
the, Dante, Pascal and
and Dostoyevski found
bases for their master-
pieces in the Holy Script-
ures.
When Gutenberg invented
printing he turned to Script-
ure for the first text to
which he applied his new
technique.
Strangely enough we dis.
cover that this collection
of Holy Books, the Bible,
reaches the levels of men-
tality in all cultures whet-
her in our own Americas,
Europe, Asia or Africa.
Today the Bible is a
"best seller". No one
knows exactly how many
copies are in circulation.
The figure of one to two
thousand million copies
grows by about two million
a year! It can be read in
practically every language
of t-h^ word.-It has been
variously estimated that
there are in existence any-
where from 730 to 1140
translations ranging
through Japanese, Arabic,
Breton, Flemish, Eskimo
and Senegalese. Our Eng-
lish translations have be-
come more explicit if less
poetic through the work of
Goodspeed, Moffatt, J.B.
Philips and the Revised
Standard Version.
This is the Book of
Books you may have chos-
en to accompany you into
your imaginary solitari-
ness. But what of now?
Are you one of the two
thousand million who,own
the Bible? If so, do you
read it? How often? Have
you discovered its infinite
variety, its Divine wisdom,
its inexhaustible inspir-
ation? Listed here are a
few passages of Script-
ure singled out for singu-
lar need. You may wish to
paste them on the flyleaf
of your Bible.

This week, October 21-
27 has been de0clared Nat-
ional Bible Week. Have
you tucked away some-
where in your home a treas-
ured Bible, Testament,
Book of Common Worship
or Prayer Book which

Here in this Area of richly
varied religious beliefs, we
must surely have a treasure
trove of Holy Books. Shall
we bring them forth, dis-
play them, study and share
them.
Sir Walter Scott once
wrote that "the most learn-
ed, acute, diligent student
cannot in the longest life
obtain a knowled1ge of this
one volume. The more
deeply he works the mine,
the richer and more abun-
dant he finds the ore; new
light continually beams
from this source of heaven-
ly knowledge to direct the
conduct artd illustrate the
work of God and the ways
Pictured above are two treasured Holy Books belonging
to our Feature Writer, Eve Seiter. The Red Letter New
Testament is unique. The covers of the Book were cut
from olive wood trees grown in the Holy Land and were
carved and polished by Oriental Craftsmen in Jerusalem.
The calf bound Methodist Hymnal with Ritual dated back
to January 12th, 1878. Only the words of the Hymns are
included. No musical sccre accompanies them, The Rit-
ual includes the Order of Baptism, the Reception of Mem-
bers and The Lord's Supper. Both volumes are printed in
large type and are gilt edged. The Testament is replete
with many colored photographs of the Holy Land.
Due to vandalism in the Village, the Police Department
is forced to enforce the 8:00 pm curfew. Paint spraying
of homes, such as that shown in the above picture, is
not considered halloweening, nor cutting tires, slashing
convertible tops, pushing down walls and ripping awn-
ings. All persons under 18 years of age must be accom-
panied by an adult of 21 or over after the 8:00 pm curfew&
This included riding or driving cars in the Village.
