tion, to read these life experiences is to come to know China and its heathenism, almost at first hand. The gospel has tri umphed gloriously in these redeemed heathen. 159 pages. Revell Co. Cloth. Price $1.50. Facing N orth B y O. G. H erbrecht The problems of boy life, as they were discussed about the camp fire and in the other groups at Elder Memorial, are treated in this volume. The claims of God, of one’s family, of one’s better self, and the price to be paid for clean leader ship among boys and men of character— these form the theme of the book. Fol lowing Christ is shown to be not the busi ness of a weakling, but of one made of heroic stuff. 142 pages. Richard R. Smith, Inc. Cloth. Price $1.50.

Each page is as clear-cut and suggestive of great things as are these chapter headings. The book is an appeal to youth to keep the future free from the blight of misspent yesterdays, to keep God between oneself and all borderline practices. A high-class, vigorous appeal upon a scriptural and spiritual basis to live, to worship, and to serve at one’s best. 152 pages. Richard R. Smith, Inc. Cloth. Price $1.50. This is a novel based on uncontrovert ible facts revealing the revolutionary pro gram of Russia. This program contem plates the overthrow of the government of the United States and the destruction of the family and of the church. The youth movement is an effort in this direc tion. It is virtually an uprising against all restraint and a yielding to natural ap petites. The story is a charming romance among high-souled people who know the Word of God, especially the prophecies. It is a most readable and valuable book. 248 pages. Christian Alliance Pub. Co. Cloth. Price $1.75. This book is a sequel to The Practice o f Christ’s Presence. Six chapters of deep spiritual teaching make up its contents. Faith, hope, and love are seen to be the primary colors of the Christian life—col ors that will never fade, even in eternity. The Christly life is “the life that is Christ.” It is not denial of certain things, but the full surrender of self to the Lord. This constitutes the true Christly rela tionship. The message of the book is deep and full. It will be a source of strength to all those who are ready to pay the price of a walk with God. 124 pages. Revell Co. Cloth. Price $1.25.

S mith This is a powerful little book dealing with conditions as they may be when and after the Lord returns.
