E PRESBYTERIAN OF THE SOL Library "Convention Normal Manual for SundaySchool Workers," Baptist S. S. Board, Nashville. Cloth, 50 cents; paper, 35 cents. This book is one that anybody may take up with interest and find much good food for thought, however in some parts extremely Baptistic in its viewpoint. I. "Sunday School Method and History" are treated ably by the suggestive Field Secretary, Rev. B. W. Spilman, under three sections on Management, Teaching. His tory; the first two striking out along generally accepted lines in a happily simplified form; the third, in addition to much commonly agreed on, introduces new historic factors, William Fox and Wm. B. Gurney, of England, or rather recovers their important part in connection with the modern Sunday School movement, the one starting his first school with the Bible as a text-book, and later adopting the L.ord'3 Day for it to meet on (after visit to Robert Raikes), organized a Society for the promotion of Bible study among the children in 1785, so beginning the modern Sunday School work as an organized movement; the other offering his services as a teacher to the Sunday School, and becoming the apostle of the voluntary idea in Sunday School work, organizing the London Sunday School Union in 1803, for the promotion of same, organizers being sent into the field. The school of Robert Raikes was strictly a Reform School, taught on Sunday, making "attempts at civilization," with paid teachers, teaching reading, spelling, writing, arithmetic, and the Anglican Church catechism, and not M Riinrlav Cnhnnl iv\ Hin rnnl ?* ^ MVI4W* IU tut I CUI ocuac CI l all; and too much credit has been given him in the Sunday school world. There is much here that needs to be more widely known and acknowledged. With the evidence before us, we think that 10 Wm. Fox, rather than to Robt. Raikes, is due the real beginning of the Sunday School as a movement. II. "The Pupil and his Needs' receives most admirable treatment at the hands of that promising young leader of men. Field Secretary L. P. Leavell. He deals with the Teacher and the Pupil's Life; giving first a bird's eye view of the latter, and then the Characteristics and Methods (physical, mental, religious, organization, teaching material) of each of the six Departments (Beginner's, Primary, Junior, Intermediate, Senior, Adult) in detail. It Is very readable and informing to the would-be growing Sunday School worker. We like his use of terms, and practical presentation. III. "The Books of the Bible," is the third division of this little work, by Editor H. C. M6ore, In which there are well-condensed and sensible and readily-grasped studies on the Bible by Books; the sucessful attempt being made to present the leading facts regarding each book, with a sketch of its historic background, and a concise view of its contents; opening each les* ' JTH. 25 son with a study section chosen from the book under consideration as a specimen of its character and designed for specific devotional study and unfolding. In this part of the Manual we find fulfilled a lack that is well-nigh glaringly patent in most other denominational First Standard Teacher Training Courses: the study of each book of the whole Bible instead of the usual study simply of the New Testament books thus, or of the Bible History, almost exclusively, or at best of the Gist of the Bible's books. We confess it as a pleasing difference, that should at least be suggestive to others by way of improve ment on the good work they have done. We have long felt this a need of many First Standard Courses. C. O'N. Martindale. Several articles dealing with the Labor Question appear in The Homiletic Review for September. Dr. Charles S. Macfarland writes an inside view of "The Moral Ciornifi/tnn/tA nwl ? J kiigiiiuvauv.c uuu Ail il UCHLC Ul Ul gaill?CU Labor" defending labor organizations, and pointing out some of the results which they have accomplished. The Rev. J. A. Cosby writes on "Sunday and the Workingman," and incidentally furnishes some striking facts on the situation. Among papers of another sort appears one of striking biographical merit, on "John Newton and His Hymns," by William H. Bates, D. D., a very interesting story of Newton's life, conversion, and r??* tt ni-i j u jr iiiii nunug. riui. ueuige n. mt'imruH raises and answers the question "Do We Still Need Ministers?"; reviewing the modern conditions that are displacing the older type of ministers, and pointing out the demand for the right kind of men. Dr. William Elliot Griffis opens a new vein in his discussion of the "Success and Failure of University Preachers." There are sermons by Dr. Charles H. raritnursi, r-asior unaries Wagner, or Paris, and others. Five pages are devoted to reviews of books, and the regular departments are well represented. Published monthly by Funk & Wagnalls Company, 44-60 East 23d Street, New York. $3.00 a year. The American Review of Reviews. August, 1909. This number is very satis factory. There Is a good variety of timely and interesting articles. An attractive paper is on the late Simon Newcomb, the great American astronomer. Irrigation in the West, Tests for Building Construction, An Engineer and his life work, are practical papers tnat have to do with the material progress of the country. As to matters abroad we have articles on "india in Transition," "The British Budget," and "The Finances of Germany."
