N0 PLACE FIXED m ADVANCE.` The Passage of Scripture Upon Which the Chief Executive Presses His Lips Is Entirely a Matter of Chance-The Bible After the Ceremony. The president before he enters on the execution ofhis ofce takes an oath or airmatiou that he Will faith- fully execute the otce of president or the United States and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitution of the United States, and this oath is usually seal- ed or conrmed by the kissing of the Bible. I rnl._ ..:....:-... ..a on... -mm.` no nnrf nt' I 151018 The kissing of the Bible as part, of the inaugural ceremony is perhaps fol- lowing a very ancient custom. The Egyptians were required to kiss the rolls on which the commands of Joseph were written. nu... ......n...~. rm.-II1{I'n fhnf irnmninfch WCTG Wfllten. The custom requires that immediate- ly after the president elect has taken the oath, with hand on the Bible, the clerk of the United States supreme court shall throw open the book. and the incoming chief magistrate shall im- plant a kiss on one of its open pages. Doubting Thomases have always thought that there was no element of a chance in this performance and that the passage of Scripture is always . carefully selected in advance. and the I book is held by the clerk of the court t in position so that the incoming chief , will kiss the passage that it is intend- - 1 ed he shall kiss, but this supposition is lientirely wrong. Ynvnnc n Rlnhnr nlnrl: M` the su- enurexy \\ L'uu:._;. James D. Maher, clerk of the su- preme court, said that the opening of the book is entirely "haphazard" and that no man on earth has the slightest intimation in advance regarding the passage of Scripture that will be thus brought into notice. '1 11mmIl.- Hm mhln fhnf is used in ad- | Drougnc Into uouce. Usually the Bible that is used in ad- ministering the oath is bought by the clerk of the supreme court and paid for out of his pocket and is a small Oxford edition costing $10 to $15. The late James H. McKinney. for many years clerk of the supreme court, once said. "You see, congress expends mon- ' ey only by appropriation. and if We were to wait for congress to appro- priate the price of the book we might , never get :1 Bible on time. There have been exceptions, how- ever, when the Bible came from oth- er sources. For instance. when James A. Gareld was inaugurated .\I:1rch 4. 1SS1, he carried in his overcoat pocket to the capitol a well worn, leather bound volume which had been pre- sentctl to him by his mother. The book was taken from the White House `and in a few years found its way to the stall of a bookseller in San Fran- cisco.
