...THAT WALKED BY HERSELF read by Boris Karloff (Caedmon). One painless way to break the comic-book habit and get the kids back to Kipling is to let this gentle old Frankenstein do it for you. All about the cave dwellers, and how the lady of the house domesticates a dog, a horse, a cow-and finally a cat, which proves a match for her wits...

Contrary to II Kings, which charges that the Samaritans abandoned the Jewish faith about 700 B.C. under Assyrian influence, the documents in the Jericho cave show that they were practicing Jews at the time of Alexander. Thus the "Samaritan schism" from the Jews has to be dated much later, probably during the 1st century before Christ, says Cross. The marriage contracts prove that the Samaritans frequently married Greeks and were Hellenized even before Alexander conquered them.
