- Christmas is Corniti! “Best” Books f o r Children
Bible Boys and Girls Stuart Nye Hutchison, D. D.
Every one of these stories has an appeal that will reach and stir and win the hearts of children. The author has a special gift for vividly presenting the truths of Scripture, as these stories abundantly show. They cover a variety of subjects, and the truths are clothed in language that reveals. Pastors, superin tendents and teachers will find the volume richly suggestive as to both subjects and methods of treatment in a way to instruct and interest children. Cloth, $1.25
