". . . and a drum" The wheel has turned full circle. One hundred and eighty-one years ago, Eleazar Wheelock, founder of Dartmouth College, brought the Bible to the Hanover Plain. It is now the College's turn to pass it on. Edited by Dr. Roy B. Chamberlin, Dartmouth Chapel Director, and the late Professor Herman Feldman of the Dartmouth faculty, The DartmouthBible, published September 25, is an abridgment of the King James version, containing new aids to the understanding of the Bible as history and literature and as a source of religious experience. The editor of the ChristianHerald describes The Dartmouth Bible as "an achievement in reverent scholarship." By arrangement with Houghton Mifflin, publishers, the College is acting as the distributor of The Dartmouth Bible to Dartmouth alumni and parents of undergraduates. Single copies are available at $7.50 each. Orders should be sent to: DARTMOUTH PUBLICATIONSBAKER LIBRARYHANOVER, NEW HAMPSHIRE
