Little Foxes, E. A. Henry, D. D., Pastor Deer Park Pres­ byterian Church, Toronto. These are five minute stories for boys and girls. These selections are admirably adapted to interest children and can be profitably used by teachers and parents in the school or home. (Revell) Price $1.25. Spiritism in Bible Light, Rev. R. B. Jones. Exposing the falsities and dangers of modern Spiritism, Rev. W. Talbot Rice, M. A., in the introduction, says: u.; “In this book of addresses Mr. Jones brings the question of Spiritism to the supreme and final test of the Word of God; showing how .the Holy Spirit.at all times condemns any dealing with the dead and warns men against the practice.” (Religious Tract Society, London). System of Christian Evidence. Dr. Leander S. Keyser, Professor in Wittenberg College, Springfield, Ohio. It gives us great pleasure to commend this book which is designed for use in colleges, seminaries, and universities. It will be of great use also to every Bible teacher and preacher. We would rejoice if every minister in this coun­ try could have it in his library and use it in his sermon preparation. It is of special value in these days when there Is so much need Of the defense of the Word of God. Professor Keyser asserts that the Bible is a special, Divine revelation. The internal and external proof which be gives of Divine inspiration, the method of dealing with the doubter and his difficulties and failure of the attacks of the infidel are of tremendous value. (Lutheran Literary Board) $1.75. Gospel Solos and Duets No. 2 is'a new book of solos and duets just off the press. This is a book that the Christian singer can use safely for its messages are true to the Word of God and the music is good, appealing to the most cul­ tured. The first introduction of this work was “Gospel Solos and Duets” by Herbert G. Tovey and Keith L. Brooks. The sales were phenomenal, that edition going to all parts of the world. They sold for $1.00. This edition is now controlled by Herbert G. Tovey, and is nearly twice the size of the first, and has a far superior binding. It contains the cream of the solos and duets from the best writers, people consecrated to God who are using their talents for Him through music. The plates for this book were made by a consecrated Christian plate maker. The book was printed by a firm, the Biola Press, which gives all its profits to the distribution of free literature, Testaments and Gospels of John. It was bound by a man who has consecrated his life to God through business. It was born in prayer and prepared with a desire to see it a real and effective instru­ ment in God’s service. It is the prayer of the compiler that those who use it will do so in the same spirit that was manifest in its production. This unique book of Gospel solos is now on sale at the Biola Book Room, but the edition is limited. The price is $1.25 per copy. BOOKLETS Method in Biblical Criticism, Dr. Charles A. Blanchard, President of Wheaton College. This thirty-page booklet contains a concise, practical suggestion concerning the criticism of the Bible that every layman should have and read. It would be a wise investment for any one to dis­ tribute them among church people. (Bible Institute Coipor­ tage Association). Jehovah in the Old Testament and in the New, Lyman B. Tefft, A. M., D. D. Dr. Tefft in this brief treatise sum­ marizes the revelation of God in both Testaments and proves the trustworthiness of the Scripture by the Scriptures themselves. The book will be of great value to Bible stu­ dents. (Continued on Page 124)

The Church, the Schools and Evolution, J. E. Conant, D. D., Bible Teacher and Evangelist. Dr. Conant treats the subject under two heads,^first, The Present Controversy —the Cause; and, second, The Present Controversy—the Cure. The book is well worth broadcasting among parents and students, and God will use it to help stem the tide o f . unbelief now surging through both home and school. (Bible Institute Coiportage Association.) Bible Story Book, Elsie E. Egermeier. Here is a book of over 600 pages with stories from the two Testaments and 175 illustrations. The stories are admirably told .and. cannot fail to accomplish the two essential things: Awaken an interest in the Bible and fix its truths in the minds of the children. Fathers and mothers could do nothing bet­ ter than to read these storiès to their own children. The Bible would become a new book in such a home.- (Gospel Trumpet Company.) Romanism vs. Americanism, T. W. Callaway, Pastor Baptist Tabernacle, Chattanooga, Tenn. This book is dedi­ cated to “the Triune God, the Open Bible, the Cross of Sacrifice, the Civil and Religious Liberty, the Freedom of Speech, Press and School, the Preservation of 100 per cent Americanism.” We commend it to every preacher and teacher who desires to have at his fingers’ end the history of the system that has hindered the propagation of the Protestant faith, and that has been the greatest menace to the development of true Americanism in our own land. The facts gathered are historic and wisely compiled for use. We wish that it Could be read by the young people of our land. It would make an excellent Christmas gift. (Index Printing Company, Atlanta, Ga.). Price $1.00. Matthew’s Gospel, Self-Interpreted, Keith L. Brooks. A verse-by-verse commentary, with blanks to be filled in by the student. This is a valuable help to those who desire to go through thè book of Matthew verse-by-verse and write their own answers to the.questions, from the book itself. There is no better method for beginners than this practical one so wisely arranged by Mr. Brooks. Bible teachers will be able to interest students and intensify their desire to know the Word of God. (Biola Press.). Price, fifty cents. The World’s Great Religious Poetry, Compiled by Caro­ line Miles Hill, Ph.D. A remarkable compilation of religi­ ous poems covering an extensive range of ancient and mod­ ern literature, classified under a valuable detailed analysis and supplemented by indices to facilitate reference. A volume of over 800 pages. The author deserves great credit for the arrangement into divisions and for the labor­ ious task of compiling and indexing them under titles and authors. (MacMillan Company.). Price $5.00. The God of the Bible, R. A. Torrey, D. D., Dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles. Dr. Torrey has felt that there was at this time a need of changing religious defini­ tions, of a restatement of the idea of God as he finds him in his study of the Bible. The startling contrast between some modern views and the clear declarations of Scripture is sharply brought out. The author has gone back to the original Hebrew of the Old Testament and the Greek of the New in his search for the “God of the Bible.” This famous evangelist, writer, preacher and teacher is at his best in this study of the Divine personality. These addresses were listened to week after week by audiences numbering from three to four thousand, and by thousands more listening in over the radio from five hundred to fifteen hundred miles away. Here is a book which will afford any preacher or teacher material for a series of sermons which will stabilize the faith of the church and make “the God of the Bible” a new person, and promote a spirit of love for and worship of Him. (Doran) $1.50.
