OUR LITERATURE TABLE Christ in the Creed B y W . G raham S croggie Scotland’s prince o f preachers, pastor o f Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh, has added to his already large number of published volumes this fresh and faith-building dis cussion of the tenets of the Christian church. The time for its issuance seems opportune—in the fact of the present-day outcry against creeds generally. It is point ed out that “no rational being can be creed less. Neither society, nor philosophy, nor art, nor morals is creedless; and it were passing strange if religion could be. . . The garb of truth will inevitably change from generation to generation, but the truth itself remains the same. The terms in which the redeeming revelation is couched must be adapted to the prevailing mode o f each generation’s thought, but the revela tion itself can never be affected either by our intellectual fashions or spiritual fluc tuations; the truth remains the same.” 118 pages. Marshall, Morgan & Scott, Ltd. Cloth. Price 50 cents. The gifted author of God in the Shad ows has, in this new little book, The Quiet Quest, revealed the secret of serenity o f faith and victory o f life, enjoyed alike in the exacting environment of a journalist’s office and in the perplexing and heart-rend ing scenes of London’s slum districts. “ The quest is for the quiet pathway which leads, through surrender, to holiness,” and it is followed, the author affirms, through obed ience to Paul’s' command: “ Study to be quiet and to do your own business.” Espe cially to men and women o f the workaday world, this book will be refreshing. 46 pages. Revell Co. Board. Price 60 cents. The Apostle John B y W . H. G riffith T homas The author’s expressed purpose is “to help those who are called upon to preach and teach,” and on this account the ma terial is arranged largely in outline form. But none of Dr. Thomas’ works are coldly homiletical. Each o f the carefully outlined divisions—The Life of the Apostle, The Gospel, The Three Epistles, and The Reve lation—yields new and choice wine pressed from the vintage o f the Word, and preach ers and laymen alike will find it helpful. Whether it is a suggestive outline, an ex pository note, or a heart-warming com ment that is wanted, this book will not be a disappointing source. 372 pages. Picker ing & Inglis. Cloth. Price $2.00. Norman’s Good Name B y M argaret S. C omrie Norman came home from the fashion able English school in disgrace^ where upon his uncle sent him to a small school in Scotland, presided over by a kindly Chris tian master. There Norman learned to de pend upon One greater than himself for strength to do the thing that took courage and manliness. The story is full o f school boy adventure and well spited to younger teen-age boys. 208 pages. Pickering & In glis. Cloth. Price $1.00. A Correction By mistake, Points for Emphasis, by Hight C. Moore, was advertised in our Jan uary, issue as being procurable through the W . A. Wilde Co., instead of the Sunday School Board, Southern Baptist Conven tion, Nashvillè, Tenn.

upon full-time Christian service. “ I have not seen Dave Weaver ( ’29, E. S.) for sev eral weeks,” he writes. “He still has his church and I believe he is doing good work. His eldest girl was married in the fall.” H. W . Pike, for many years a member of the faculty and director of the work o f the Evening School of the Bible Institute, is acting pastor of the Community Church, 1649 Yosemite Drive, Los Angeles. Lillian Bach, ’32, is living in Seattle, Wash. Her musical talent and her love for the Lord are finding expression in jails and reformatories, where she delights to give forth the gospel in song. Lois E. Prossor, '23, stationed at Miyang, Honan, China, writes as follows: “ Our Mi yang church is greatly blessed with a fine spiritual pastor, Mr. Liu, who was trained at the Changsha Bible Institute. On his graduation, he refused a much larger sal ary in order to come back to his own home church and preach Christ among his own people. He built up the home church until it is crowded to the doors with the many who come to hear the heart-searching message o f this gifted young pastor. I am glad to say that the Chinese church pays Mr. Liu’s salary without any help from the missionaries. We have eight out- station churches besides the central church at Miyang. There are two full-time evan gelists besides an evangelistic band o f eight men who are on part time. All church af fairs are in the hands of the Chinese Chris tians.” A very happy partnership in evangelistic work was suddenly broken up when, on the evening o f Thanksgiving Day, the auto mobile in which Evangelist Mullins and William Crouch, ’32, were driving met with an accident which resulted in the death, four days later, of the evangelist. Mr. Crouch is in Oakland, Calif., where he is recovering from his injuries. He hopes soon to be able to be about the Lord’s work again. Born To J. Harold Casto, ’26, and Mrs. Casto (Marguerite Naughton, ’26) a daughter, Edith Mary, November 3, Maymyo, Burma. To Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Liebman (Anna M. Schlatter, ’24), a son, Arthur Edward, December 22, Los Angeles, Calif. To George W. (25) and Mrs. Jackson (Agnes Hosie, ’26), a daughter, Eunice Marie, January 24, Cumana, Venezuela. Married John Tielman and Anna H. Friesen, De cember 27, at the Mennonite Brethren Church, Reedley, Calif. Mr. and Mrs. Tiel man are continuing their studies at the Bible Institute. With the Lord Mrs. Mary E. Pike, a true missionary mother, went to be with her Lord on Jan uary 24 from Changsha, Hunan, China. For several years, Mrs. Pike had made her home with her daughter, Grace, ’21 (Mrs. Charles A. Roberts), at the Hunan Bible Institute. Two other daughters, Bessie, T3, and Florence, T5, are also serving the Lord as missionaries in China, while a son, Warren, is living in Los Angeles. J. J. Sims, for many years an evangelist and a frequent visiting speaker at the Bible Institute, passed with joy into the presence o f his Lord on January 17, from his home in Los Angeles. He had been associated with D. L. Moody and had spent years of fruitful ministry in England and the Con tinent.
