Price $1.00 NEXT DOOR— BUT LOST [Continued from page 130] Like the young Filipino, many seek in their own strength and wisdom to find their way, but regardless of how long and sincerely they attempt it, they only meet with failures, “ For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly” (Rom. 5:6). The lost Filipino was only a door away from the place Which he desired to find. He passed the door in his search, but not recognizing it, he never entered. The Lord Jesus said: “ I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved” (John 10:9). “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). May every lost one who reads these lines be perfectly willing to confess his lost con dition and come to God by Jesus Christ alone and be saved. “ Neither is there sal vation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12). — T o m M.

Price 25 cents. A Grand-Canyon of Resurrection Realities B y R obert G. L ee Persons who have visited the Grand Canyon of the Colorado say that the sight beggars description.

Wherefore Pray By A l f a E. M u r r a y Out of her years o f experience in the Lord’s service, the author brings a Scrip tural discussion of the subject of prayer.

B r o w n Prepared by a Christian physician and scientist, this popular discussion o f the organs and functions of the human body presents a well-rounded and readable out line of the subject.

This Way Out B y P a u l H u t c h e n s
Like his first novel, Romance o f Fire, this second book by Mr, Hutchens is written with a view to interesting young people, holding their attention, and lead ing them to Christ. Many who have read the book believe that this high purpose has been achieved. Following a would-be sui cide through many dramatic experiences, the reader sees him at last a genuine Christian, having been led to the Lord Jesus Christ through the life and work of a young woman who would not compro mise with the world. There is no dearth of exciting episodes in this book I Accounts o f kidnaping, lynching, and imprisonment will delight the young reader. Neither is there any obscurity surrounding the Scrip ture truth which the story presents. 275 pages. Wm. B. Eerdmans Pub. Co. Cloth. Price $1.00. Evangelistic Chalk Talks B y F r a n k A. M il le r With diagrammatic drawings that any one can reproduce, Mr. Miller has prepared a remarkable variety o f talks for children. The phrase-by-phrase plan for the develop ment of both the spoken message and the accompanying details in the drawing will leave little for the teacher to supply. A narrative song is an added feature. In the extensive use of Scripture passages the eleven messages find their greatest strength, for the Lord will be able to bless a pic torial method that draws attention to His Word. 26 pages.

also be tempted” (Gal. 6 :1 ). The work of restoration is the work o f the spiritual Christian. Too many unspiritual people are undertaking this work, and it is not being done in the spirit o f meekness but in the spirit o f pride. Christian workers are not faultless, and many have their idiosyncrasies, but if they are faithful in life and testimony to the Lord and His Word, let us refrain from minimizing their influence by criticism. Let us, rather, re joice in their successes, speak well of them, and pray for them. How would it be-to declare a moratorium on negative, destructive criticism of fellow Christians, and to go out of the business o f “ blowing out lights” ? Let us echo the wish o f the one who said: “ Die when I may, I want it said of me by those who knew me best that I always plucked a briar and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.”
[Continued from page 123] lievers seem to specialize in criticism, and they become past masters in their specialty. The critic sometimes goes so far as to peddle lies. Lying is an appalling thing in the sight o f God. “ All liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone” (Rev. 21 :8 ). Sometimes a criticism is an interpretation of an act or an attitude that is a false interpretation because the critic did not have accurate or adequate information. Great harm may result from such criticism. Some one has said that all comments should go through three sieves: First, Is it true ? Second, Is it kind? And third, Is it necessary? Criticism sometimes is necessary, but it should be given to the person involved, and it should be brought in the right spirit. God says: “ Brethren, if a man be over taken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such a one in the spirit o f meekness; considering thyself, lest thou
