Saviour. The majority of the scenes are laid in that far off land during the war, when famine and pestilence stalked through, having compassion on none. The hero also, after many bitter battles within, finds perfect rest and peace in His Lord. Of special help to young people. (Revell) $1.25. Who Wrote the Bible?, by Dr. Charles A. Blanchard, President of Wheaton College. Dr. Blanchard is admirably qualified to present to the reading public a book so greatly need­ ed at this time when the question of greatest importance to the nation is involved in the question, “ Who wrote the Bible? Is it dependable? Is it true? Is it inspired?” He has an­ swered these questions satisfactorily and given the reason why the Bible occupies the place it does as the only factor by which the problems of life can be solved. We could wish this volume had a place in every home in the land. (Bible Institute Colportage Association) $1.00. Knowing the Scriptures, by Dr. A. T. Pierson. The Bible Institute of Los Angeles has just issued a new edition of this remarkable book. There are fifty rules and methods of Bible study given. We have no hesi­ tation in saying that this volume of 450 pages is the best single book in print for the preacher’s table. The foundation for sermons without num­ ber can be found here and always ma­ terial to strengthen the faith and build up saints. (Biola Press) $2.00. The Misconceptions of an Evolu­ tionist, by Prof, L. S. Keyser, D. D. Hamma Divinity School, Springfield, Ohio. This brochure is an answer to an article by Raymond C. Osburn on some misconceptions about evolution. Dr. Keyser lays bare the fallacy of Dr. Osburn’s position and proves his points in a skilful manner. He quotes from Dr. Osburn’s “ six counts” to prove the theory of evolution, and takes them up seratim, showing con­ clusively the absurdity of his position. We commend this argument of twenty pages to our ministerial friends for a sermon on evolution. (Reprinted from the Lutheran Quarterly). Twelve Great Questions About Christ, by Rev. Clarence E. MacCart- ney, D. D., of Philadelphia. Dr. Mac- Cartney has a unique place in the hearts of God’s true followers. He is the man who stood stoutly for the old faith in the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church last year against the Modernists. In the foreword, Rev. J. Gresham Machen, D. D., of Prince­ ton Seminary, says: “ The center and core of this message is Jesus Christ; not the reduced and unreal Jesus of Modern Naturalistic Liberalism, but the all-sufficient Saviour presented in the Word of God.” We heartily com­ mend it. (Revell) Price $1.50. Tbe Bible and Spiritual Life, by Dr. Arthur T. Pierson. To say “ by Dr. Pierson” of any book is to insure the reader something worth having and studying. In these days of question marks concerning the infallible Word of God, nothing can be more strength-

“My Chain Refer­ ence Bible is a de­ light to me. Indeed it is fascinating. Surely topical Bible study is h e r e re duced to a science, and yet made sim­ ple enough tor Jun­ ior Scholars. For personal study it is a marvel of con­ venience and com­ pleteness.’*

P RACTICALLY all the great leaders in the work of the Saviour, repre­ senting all evangelical denomina­ tions, enthusiastically commend and re­ commend The Chain-Reference Bible. There is no greater work than the spread­ ing of the Gospel, and no greater joy than the full knowledge of God’s Word. The Chain-Reference Bible will be a tremendous help in both. The Chain Reference The tracing of topics, characters, or any impor~ tant line of thought through the Bible is made easy and direct by the reference chains. They conduct the reader to the choicest portions of the Scripture relating to the subject in nand, and make topical study a delight. This is the ONLY Reference System that does not have confusing letters, figures, or signs in the Bible text. The Expository System Substantially all the most frequently used verses in the Bible are analyzed into topics, printed on the margin opposite the verse. These topics are both suggestive and expository, and throw a flood of light on the deeper meaning of “The Word.” The Text Cyclopedia There is probably no feature of this great work more appreciated by busy Christian workers, Bible students, Teachers andPastorsthantheTextCyclo­ pedia. It assembles all the references of any chain together—asingleturnfromthetopic onthemargin will bring the complete chain in view. If the sub­ ject is of special importance, the verses of the chain will appear in full in the Cyclopedia, which super­ sedes the old subject-index. In this feature the more important themes have been correlated and arranged under contrasted headings. The positive and negative, the light and the dark, aspects of a subject are placed side by side on the same page, with the verses taken from the different parts of the Bible on the important subjects printed right out in full before you for comparison. It isbut astepfrom a thought in any verse in the Bible to the Text Cyclopedia, where the whole subject is developed and emphasized by contrast. Additional Features This unique volume also contains a Bagster Con­ cordance and a Standard Set of Maps. ening to the faith than this volume of fifteen chapters and 480 pages, with appropriate illustrations, for the teacher or preacher.
