GREAT INTEREST IS SHOWN Educators and Clergymen Join In I'rglng Bos and ;irl to Try for 300 Tickets Ofrcred by The Oregonlan. Clergymen of Portland are enthusiastic In their indorsement of the "Ben-Hur" contest which is being carried on by The Orrgnntan among pupils of the public and Catholic schools, the prizes to be 300 tick efs to the production of "Ben-Hur" at the Hellig Theater the night of January 18. When Interviewed yesterday they not only expressed the highest opinion of the book on which the contest is baaed but de dared that its study and the composition of essays would be of great educational value to the pupils who participate. "No minister of the Gospel can consist ently withhold unotinted praise of "Ben Hur,' " declared one pastor, and the ex pressions of other clergymen showed that they thoroughly agreed with him. It is their unanimous opinion that General Wal lace's novel teaches a ueeful lesson in i manner that will keep it lone In the pu pils' minds. One of Great Modern Books. "There is no question of the unspeakable value of "P.en-Hur. " said Dr. Luther R. Dyott. pastor of the First Congregational Church. "It is the best book of its sort that has been written for a number of years and. by common consent, is regard ed ae General Wallace's masterpiece. Sq far as the educational value of thi con test Is concerned, the work of The Ore gonlan will do more to Instruct tho chl! dren and to lodge In their minds things they ought to know than anything that Is being done outside the Sunday schools. No minister should withhold the heartiest Indorsement of this competition." "The contest that The Oregonlan has begun will be of much educational value to all who participate in it," declared Dr. Benjamin L. Young, pafltor of the Taylor-Street Methodist Episcopal Church. " 'Ben-Hur' is one of the greatest books of modern times, and depicts the Christ. story very strongly. Because of its rare and devout treatment and reverence for sacred things, the book doesn't detract from the theme. There are some scenes l in 'Ben-Hur' which. If fixed In the minds of young people, will never be lost, par ticularly the healing of leprosy and the chariot race. Every boy and girl who enters The Oregonian's contest Is sure to be benefited. Rook Has Literary Merit. Dr. U. H. Heppe, pastor of Grace Meth odist Episcopal Church, was also warm in his praise of the study of "Ben-Hur" by children of the public schools. "The book Is one of the finest and most wholesome pieces of modern literature," he eald. "It gives the rising generation a very cleas Idea of Christ's time and the Influence and evolution of his life. Another reason that It is beneficial to young people Is Its high literary merit as compared with much of the trash of the present day." It was expected Wednesday that The Oregonian would be able to announce this morning the names of those composing the two committees on awards. The appoint ment of these committees, however, was not completed yesterday, owing to the ad journment of school, caused by the storm. Superintendent Frank Rlgler and Father Edward V. O'Hara expect to complete these committees today and the names will oe published in The Oregonlan to morrow. Father O'Hara has caused announce ment of the contest to be made In all the Catholic .schools of tho city, and there promLses to be keen competition among pupils of these Institutions, as well as those of tho public schools. In speaking of the competition yesterday. Father O'Hara said: " 'Ben-Hur' can be highly commend ed to pupils of our schools and for that matter to those who are no longer pupils, as a vivid presentation of an important period In history. The auth or has a wonderful faculty of making his readers live in the scenes that he depicts, so vividly are they brought before the Imagination. It would be well for pupils who are studying the book to observe the one defect in Ben Hur's character which is the trickery employed by lilm to win the chariot race. This, however. In no way de tracts from the force and value of the book." Indorsed by Mrs. Sltton. Mrs. L. W. Sitton, member of the Board of Education, yesterday Joined with the other directors in recommend ing that all pupils who are eligible enter the "Ben-Hur" contest. "The study of this book and the composition of essays based upon It will be of great help to all who participate, she said. "I am always glad to have the pupils take up one particular line of investigation, and In this case It Is particularly desirable because of the historical and literary merit of the book." Pupils who wish to enter the "Ben Hur" contest should remember that their essays must be in the hands of The Oregonian by next Tuesday, Janu ary 12. The following day they will be turned over to the Judges and no essays received after Tuesday will be considered. The essays should be about 150 words long and written on only one side of the paper. In the upper left hand corner the pupil should write his name, address, grade and school. All pupils of the high schools, eigth and ninth grade grammar schools and of corresponding grades In the Catholic schools are eligible to partici pate. For the 300 best essays The Oregonian will give 300 tickets for the performance of "Ben-Hur" at the Hellig theater the night of January 18. The synopsis of "Ben-Hur" wtjlch The Oregonian has been publishing .be ginning last Monday, Is concluded with the following chapter: The Crucifixion of Christ B1 ally the man born to be King of the Jews. To Hur the words "Kin of the Jews" had but one meaning" that Christ was to reign as a temporal monarch that the Romans were to be driven from Judea and the nation with its old wor ship, its old glories restored. Believing that, Ben Hur devoted all his energies to the raising of an army which should be ready when the moment came to seat Christ upon the throne of Judea. His friendship to Sheik Uderim had placed under him 10.000 Arabs of the desert born, soldiers every one of them. With these 10.000 spears as a nucleus.

It was a bitter disappointment to Ben Hur therefore, when Christ himself re vealed his divine mission on earth. Not rntll the awful dav when Christ was crucified did Ben Hur realize that his dream of a temporal kingdom for the Messiah was ashes. Ben Hur married Esther, the daughter of Simonides, and both became Chris tians. It was the wealth of Hur that provided the catacomb of San Calixto in Rome, the burial place of the Chris tian martyrs slain during the persecu tion set on foot by Nero.
