-Christmas Will Soon Be Here" Books—Biola “ Best” Books Make the Best Gifts “Mona’ s Inheritance and Three Girls in a Boat” By Laura Barter Snow “ There is so much reason for looking askance at many of the novels which issue from the press year after year, that it is a real pleasure to meet with a story book that can be put into the hands of girls and young women without any hesi tation. Mrs. Barter Snow demonstrates the possibility of writ ing an attractive story of treasure, and intrigue, and human love, in a manner which is compatible with the presentation of simple Gospel truths.” Cloth, $1.50
SCHOLARSHIP IS AGREED? (Continued from page 772) revelation to man concerning truths vitally essential to his eternal welfare. How May We Know? Having reached that point, we are met with a straight forward challenge to every honest seeker: “ If any man will do my will he shall know” (Jn. 7:17). The education worth while is not that which merely swells the head, hut that which expands the affections, widens the sphere of our sympathies, makes us realize our relation to God and our responsibility toward all men, refines our natures, elevates us in the scale of being, brings us real rest of heart. The Lord Jesus meets us at this point with this challenge: “ Come unto me” (Matt. 11:28-29). He is made unto the believer “ wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption” (1 Cor. 1:30). Who shall dare to say that the promise of Christ has not worked out in the experience of untold thousands who have been enabled to testify, “We know that he abideth in us by his Spirit which he hath given us” (1 John 3:24). God has come to them as a silent, inward, divine force of life, strengthening, renewing, purifying, perfecting and guiding, setting the heart at rest in a world full of conflicting human opinions. This is why thousands to this day disregard the contra dicting voices of the worldly wise and pit their experience against all the evolutionary arguments that happen to be popular just now. Let scientists continue to array evidence, let philosophers continue to offer the best that the finite mind apart from God can produce to explain things about us,— but one who has had a real experience of regeneration will never permit representatives of either class to mount upon thé judge’s bench and pronounce a verdict against the Bible in the name of “ all scholarship.” Cowper wrote: “A glory gilds the sacred page. Majestic like the sun.

And Scott wisely wrote:
“Within that awful volume lies The mystery of mysteries! Happiest they of human race
To whom God has granted grace To read, to fear, to hope, to pray, To lift the latch and force the way; And better had they ne’er been born Who read to doubt and read to scorn.” Hliiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiimiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiii^
