Mr. R. B. Bailey F EBRUARY first the Bible Institute added to its valuable staff of Field workers Mr. R. Bruce Bailey, of Mont­ rose, California. Mr. Bailey has had wide business experience, having been supervisor of a sales organization for twelve years and on the staff of Forest Lawn Memorial Park for seventeen years. He is a member and clerk of the session of Calvary Church of Hollywood. Mr. Bailey testifies in regard to this new field of service: “Now by God’s grace I am entering into a work in­ finitely more vital to the needs of man­ kind than anything engaged in before, helping to prepare young people for full­ time Christian service. My duty as a field worker will be to contact God’s stewards, friends of the Bible Institute, to secure their financial support in spon­ soring the tuition of students. My field will be Glendale north to San Fernando, La Canada west to Chatsworth, and all of the Foothill and San Fernando Val­ leys, with more territory to be added in the future if necessary.” Mr. and Mrs. Bailey have a one-year- old daughter who is already looking for­ ward to being trained at Biola in the near future. The Biola family welcomes Mr. Bailey and wishes him God’s rich­ est blessing in his new work. I was very pleased to find The King’s Business in the library of our Methodist Home. Great good has resulted from reading it. The story of Dorothy Haskin is especially good in exposing false cults. M rs .

The subject is revealed as a hero to the common people of Mexico and to his biographer—a socialist and idealist, but not a communist, as has been claimed. To read this book is to know Mexico and her problems. 379 pages. George Wahr Publishing Co., Ann Arbor, Mich. Cloth. $4.00. STUDIES ON BOOK ONE OF THE PSALMS By H. A. Ironside Works on the Book of Psalms are al­ most legion, but this series of studies appearing originally in The Moody Church News has a charm of its own.

This volume takes up the first 41 Psalms and apparently other volumes in the set will follow. 250 pages. Loi- zeaux Brothers, Inc., New York. Cloth. $2.50.
