BIBLES IN CAMPS.
It was very distressing to read "Spiritual's" statement that no Bible was available in the Karangahake camp by means of which British Israelites, Students of Truth, Believers in the Trinity and their opponents could maintain their respective tenets. I feel sure that sympathetic "Star" readers will respond to the appeal to remedy this hiatus in camp literature. It is often difficult to find a Bible when it is wanted. I remember it being necessary once in an office to obtain a Bible in order that a quotation might be verified. None could be found, so the office typist was ?e 111 across the road to the house of an old lady who was considered likely to possess one. The typist asked her if she could borrow her Bible for a few minutes, and the old lady said in a tone of deep coincern: "Oh, my dear, are you feeling as bad as all that?" Perhaps believers and disbelievers alike in the doctrines mentioned by "Spiritual" will now hurry witli their Bibles to the camp at Karangahake and thus provide some diversion for the monotony of existence in these institutions. BIBLIOPHILE.
