The new translation was by a team headed by the Hcv. Robert Bratcher and is available in several editions. An example of the new style (John 3:16 : King James version: "For Qod so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believelh in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Good News version : "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal Ufa." While there are those who like the old version and those who like the new, the significant fact ' is ; that the new version has become the nation's all-time paperback best seller, which is heartening to all Christians.

Hertford, N. C, Thursday, November 18, 1971 Letter To Editor The Hertford' Grammar School eighth grade students have recently done an excellent job selling candles, raising an excellent amount of money which will bo toward the pur chase of atnieuc equipment. Somewhere along the way the FT A has come in for some un just criticism, the result of rumors from the blue, spread for the most part by people who don t attend PTA meetings and know little or nothing about the many activities undertaken by the organization to benefit their children. The rumor Is that the eighth graders are collecting the money to make up for a deficit in PTA funds. A part of the rumor is that those funds were spent on something else. If the few and fortunately it is Modernizo with I AUTOMATIC LP-Gao rjgl appliances!

'' ' w& . just that amount, albeit quite vocal would check with Principal Bill Tlce, myself or any other PTA director, they would be shown that not only has the outdoor athletic equipment been purchased and paid for, but there is money left over for some Indoor . equipment, requested by the school. In addition, this year will find shelving, screens and other improvements made to our school library this money coming from the PTA dinners and such special projects as the big festival scheduled ' for Saturday. These are sorely needed improvements and the school librarian will be happy to show you around and let you see the need for yourself. I hope this clears up any misconception, resulting from rumors that would never have been spread, much less believed, if those taking them in would attend PTA meetings. Again, I think congratulations are due the eighth graders. They -took this project on their own to help their school and this kind of initiative is most en-, couraging. Sincerely. Frank M. Roberts.
