Our soldiers have gone to the great war in the

spirit of Cromwell's Ironsides, to battle for justice and liberty. We have little doubt that the equipment of most of them, like that of the Ironsides, will comprise a pocket Bible. No edition could be handier or more appropriate than that just issued by the Oxford University Press, who send us khaki-bound copies of The Holy Bible in small but very clear type, a large-type New Testament, and a Book of Common Prayer, including Hymns Ancient and Modem (le. net each).
