Excerpt from College Men and the Bible

The Obj ect of this book is to review the ever widening and deepening interest in Bible study among thoughtful men, especially among men In educational institutions, with the purpose of showing the conditions, responsibility and opportunity of educated leadership in the pro motion of the study of the Christian Scrip tures. The chapters on Bible study in the Orient were prompted by a world tour which the writer made in 1909, with the View of gain ing first-hand knowledge of Bible study move ments among students and educators in Asia, and of assisting if possible in their develop ment.

I wish to express my thanks to the editors of The Century Magazine, who have generously given their permission to the publication in this book of three papers, with certain pictures, which originally appeared in that magazine. I desire also to record my debt and my deep appreciation to my two associates, Neil Mc Millan, J r., and Harrison S. Elliott, for their invaluable assistance in the final preparation of this book for the press.

In a large correspondence from various parts of the world, representing men and wom en of almost every nationality and creed, the questions treated in the following pages are continually suggested. The writer is hopeful, therefore, that this book may be the means of assisting persons, both at home and abroad, toward the solution of some of these Bible problems, which are indeed life problems, through a new discovery for themselves of the Book which Goethe called The Book of the Nations.
