Prize Examinations in Sacred
Literature.
The American Institute of Sacred
Literature of Chicago offers for the
year 1896-97 six prizes for the best ex-
aminations in Hebrew, New Testa-
lished in the secular and
oe
ment, Greek and the English Bible.
The examinations are open to all col-
lege men and women of the United
States and Canada, and the prizes to
be awarded are$100 for the best paper
and $50 for the second best paper in
each of the three subjects mentioned.
The names of the successful contest-
anti and of the institutions with
which they are connected will be pub-
religious
press of the United States and Can-
ada. :
The purpose of the Institute in of-
fering these examinations is chiefly to
induce college students to obtain a
working knowledge of Hebrew and
New Testament Greek, together with
an adequate biblical instruction so
that data may be procured by which
to convince the vast number of col-
leges in which the departments are
not included, that it is important to
add to their int2llectual equipment,
facilities for the best work in these
subjects. Should the results of the
examinations warrant their contin-
uance, prizes will be offered annually.
No entrance fee whatever is requir-
ed. The examination in the English
Bible is open to all college students
and those in Hebrew and New Testa-
ment Greek to all students as well as
to those who enter the first year class
of a Theological Seminary in the Au-
tumn of 1897, provided such students
are college men or women whose grad-
uation took place not earlier than
June, 1896. The privilege is reserved
of withdrawing one or all of these ex-
aminations should an insufficient num-
ber of candidates apply.
All three examinations will be held
on March 10, 1897, in whatever in-
stitute each candidate may be located.
The names of candidates for any or
ali of these examinations may be en-
rolled at once, but will not be receiv-
ed after January 1, 1897, except by
special permission of the principal of
the American Institute, Dr. William
R. Harper. The prizes will be award-
ed in June, 1897.
For forms of application and an-
nouncements, inquiries should be
made of the American Institute of Sa-
ered Literature, Hyde Park, Chicago,
Ill. As there is no income to the In-
stitute from this work the courtesy
of return postage will be appreciated.
