paste pot and a lot of patience
has completed the formidable
task of editing the Bible into
a version less than a third its
usual length.
"I am not a theologian and
not even a Sunday School teach
er," Margaret Nicholson, editor
of "The Cdmpact Bible,"- said.
She pencilled, snipped and
pasted sections of half a dozen
different copies of the King
James version to put together
her volume, which totals ap
proximately 200,000 words. The
King James version has 774,
746 words.
Miss Nicholson, the daughter
of a missionary and for many
years a top editor with a pub
lishing company, began the job
two years ago. "The Compact
Bible" will be published today
by Hawthorne Press. -Twice
Read Before Cutting
The first two months of her
task she spent at her farm near
Hillsdale, N.Y., "seven miles
from my nearest neighbor," con
centrating on the Bible. She'd
read it through twice before,
but she'd never done any seri
ous Bible study.
"I began with a half dozen
inexpensive copies of the Bible,"
Miss Nicholson explained. "The
first copy I read through, cross
ing out verses with a pencil
when my interest seemed to
go." .
She decided early in the
task that she wasn't going to
try to create a historian's bible
or a scholar's bible, but a vol
ume which might tempt more
people to begin with Genesis
and read all the way through
Revelations, not missing any of
the essential story of the Bible,
but skipping tedious passages.
Re-Clipped the Verses
"The second copy of my bibles
I started clipping out verses I
WANTED TO USE," Miss
Nicholson continued. "I put
them on sheets of paper first
with scotch tape, so I could re
move them, and later pasted
them down."
Each book of the Bible is in
cluded, and each verse that is
used is complete. Unobtrusive
numbers at the side of the pages
give the numbers of chapters
and verses, so readers wiil know
when sections are missing.
"Some chapters, like Ruth, I
cut very little," the editor said.
"Psalms I just had to be auto
cratic with. I tried to pick the
most familiar psalms and also
those which are most beautiful
and not so familiar.
"I cut without qualms the
things that were interesting as
r history ' but not so interesting
as reading," she said. "I tried
to save the story - value, the
most moving passages from a
literature point of view and the
great inspirational passages."
Successful Candidate
Learns Salary Pared
Binghampton. N.Y. (U.R)
When Charles Root announced
his candidacy as supervisor for
the town of Windsor last June,
the job paid $2,500 a year.
He was elected Nov. 2, only to
find the town board had cut the
pay to $1,700 a year, starting
Jan. 1 when he took office.
The retiring supervisor, Ben
jamin Hughes, said the board's
action was "logical."
"When a man starts . college,
he doesn't join the senior class,"
said Hughes. "When I became
supervisor in 1946, the . pay was
$1,200."
