So please don’t be put off. The Bible text (Tom Wright’s own translation) is included in the book, which means you just need one book and not two. Tom Wright’s translation of the New Testament is available as a separate book if you want a modern up to date translation from one of the world’s top Bible scholars. Mark is the shortest of the four gospels, and is a good way to begin reading the New Testament. Reading first; studying it can come later, although Tom Wright has a very useful and accessible Glossary at the end of the book to explain some of the more difficult words and ideas.

I always anticipate Lent with a slight feeling of having to brace myself. Come on make an effort in something! If I am going to give something up don’t just make it an exercise in self- improvement, how is it going to help others? If I am going to do something positive what will be its long-term effect? It is all too easy to ‘over think’ the whole exercise. Once the season is underway I begin to appreciate it. But in the end it should be about paying attention to God. I am always struck by the end of the story of the temptations angels in the wilderness, the woman in the wilderness. Jesus refuses to who anointed him, Simon who carried be a cheap miracle worker to benefit his cross for example. We might not himself, and refuses to follow the be able to do those things for him, but route to worldly power and status.

ON THE DISCOVERT OF A BED OF DEVONIAN CORALS AT WITHYCOMBE, WEST SOMERSET. To the Editor of the GEOLOGICAL MAGAZINE. SIB,—There is a band of Limestone, mentioned by Sir H. de la Beche, in his Geological Report on Cornwall, Devon, and West Somerset, which is traceable at intervals from Ilfracombe to Withy- combe, the intervening localities being Combe Martin, Simonsbath, Cutcombe, Duxborough, and Treborough, and to quote his words, " if we be right in referring the Limestone of the Quantocks to the same band, it is carried round by Doddington, Asholt, and Cothel- stone Park, the connection being concealed by the Red Sandstone series, the Lias, and the Sea." The existence of Coral-beds in the portion of this Limestone band exposed in the Quantocks has been ascertained by Mr. J. D. Pring, of Taunton, and the only genera and species that I at present know to have been found in them—though doubtless there are many others—are the following: viz., Alveolites suborbicidaris, Favosites polymorpha (cervicornis, M.
