Hymns and Human Life by Erick Routley Because hymn-singing forms an important part of our weekly church services, any book concerning hymns deserves our attention. Hymns are the folk songs of the church; they are the means of communicating great Christian truths; and they are the means of expressing deep spirit ual experiences. Written by Dr. Erick Routley, the noted author, church h istorian , church organist and pastor of Edin burgh, Scotland, this volume is im portant. Written in a most readable style, it encompasses the historical and personal background of some 600 hymns from New Testament times until the present. In spite of repeat ed references to English hymnals, this American publication of the sec ond English edition of 1959 is of value because it speaks of hymns in common usage on both sides of the Atlantic. 346 pages; cloth; Wm.

GAMES CHRISTMAS PLAY by Judi Culbertson and Patti Bard. 124 pages; paper over boards; Harper & Row, New York; $2.95. "A n irreverent guide to religion without tears," says the sub title. By means of irony and overstatement, and illustrated with drawings, the authors high light sins and foibles of professed Christians. The result is rather obnoxious to a true believ er, even though much of what is presented is based on reality. It would probably make an unbeliever decide to remain such.
