F raser Although this brief creedal statement is intended primarily as the confession of the Presbyterian Church of New Zealand, any evangelical Christian could subscribe to its major tenets. Its definitions are terse, clear, and accurate. It is comprehensive in its scope, for it includes all o f the fun damental doctrines o f Scripture. It is strict without being harshly dogmatic, and exact without being pedantic. It is a handy compendium of theology for laymen and Christian workers alike. 84 pages. Stanton Bros., Ltd. Dunedin, N. Z. Paper. Price 25 cents. Studies in the Epistle to the Hebrews B y G eorge H enderson As the title indicates, this is not a com mentary on Hebrews, but a series o f out line studies.

Difficult passages are explained sanely and satisfactorily. It is a good in troduction to the. analytic study o f Hebrews. 128 pages. G. F. Vallance. Cloth. Price $1.00.

C oombe H arris The story opens with a scene in a board ing school just at the close of the semester. Three graduates are discussing what to do with their gift of life and how to find hap piness. Butterfly Monica will seek happi ness in fun and having a gay time; ambi tious Lois will seek it in fame; but quiet Ruth hesitatingly announces that she will find her happiness in doing the will o f God. The girls part and go to their separate homes. The book shows where each choice leads the girls, and how all eventually come to see that Ruth has chosen the real road to the attainment of the desired goal, although hers is a life of more outward difficulties than those o f the other two. 253 pages.
