O U R L IT E R A T U R E T A B L E [C ontinued [rom p a g e 414] A Threefold Cord No Author Named—Preface by HELENA GARRATT Another collection of “selections for the year"— yes, this book is that; but it is not “just another.” The chosen paragraphs breathe life% sweetness, and power in remarkable degree. Writing from South Africa, Helena Garratt offers this explanation in the Preface: “The origin of A T hreefold Cord is due to the wish long felt that the excerpts in the Bibles and notebooks of three missionaries, which so greatly influenced their lives, should be given wider circulation. The extracts are#drawn from widely different sources.” A page is devoted to each day of the year, and from one to five com ments pertinent to the chosen text for the day are given. Any reader may experience delight in perusing these pages, and public speakers will find hundreds of quotable bits that will give the flash of interest to their utterances. 372 pages.

The author reveals the riches of grace in such a way as to make earthly treasures seem paltry in deed. 95 pages. Pickering & Inglis. Cloth. Price 50 cents. Testing Time By DAVID P. ALLISON Against a background of Civil War days, the author has placed a number of interesting charac ters, among whom are Hugh and Alec Forbes, brothers, who entered the war on opposite sides, and the courageous and beautiful Betty Johnson whose quick thinking and embroidery scissors saved a man’s life.

Harvest of the Years By HOPE DARING Into Margaret Dean’s humble mountain cabin Felix Thorp stumbled one night—Felix, who was well educated, completely discouraged, and desper ately ill. The influence of his life upon Laurel and Lee, children whom Mother Dean befriended, up on Phil Benson, who made bootleg liquor and defied law, upon David Keith, young medico who caught a vision of service-^—this influence expresses itself in a colorful tale with a Christian emphasis. 189 pages. Wm. B. Eerdmans Pub. Co. Cloth. Price $1.00. Nita Finds Peace By E. PEARL BRAKE Nita is the only daughter of a refined and gifted but incompatible couple. The girl is torn between affection for her father, whose state of health makes death imminent for him, and loyalty to her mother with whom she lives. Friendship with a writer, Bard, led both the young people to a study of the boy’s mother’s Bible and eventually brought about the enlightenment of all the group. 91 pages. Zondervan Pub. House. Cloth. Price 75 cents. Then and Now in Kenya Colony By W ILLIS R. HOTCHKISS A fascinating^ missionary narrative is this story of Dr. Hotchkiss’s “forty adventurous years in East Africa.” Written with a vividness that makes the reader see the country and re-live the adven tures of the author, this book gives the record of how the Africans of Kenya Colony have been raised from the lowest of heathenism to become self-respecting, self-supporting citizens of the Bri tish Empire through a knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. The book_ abounds in interesting word- pictures of the African scene—the wild animal life, the beauty and ruggedness of the country, and the characteristics and life of the natives. Considered
