SEND HIM A BIBLE.

The North-Western Michigan Press Association held its second annual meeting at Big Rapids, Mich., July 14, 1879. At a banquet in the evening, the toast, “Editorial Excursions,” was responded to by S. F. Aspinwall, of the Grand Rapids Journal; and in that response he is reported to have said:—

“The oldest publisher that we can now call to mind, Moses, who engraved the law on tablets of stone, went on an editorial excursion.”

Any man who, in this latter part of the 19th century thinks that Moses was the one who engraved the commandments on the tables of stone, should be made a subject of missionary effort by the nearest Sunday-school.
