Here’s a card that Sunday school students in Sugar Grove Methodist Church received from their teacher, W.E. Candler at Christmas in 1912.
Click on it to read all the biblically-related information. For example, you will find that a mite was less than a quarter of a cent (think: story of the widow’s mite).
Also, according to Genesis, Noah’s ark measured 300 cubits long, 50 cubits broad and 30 cubits high.
