of the manuscripts measured up to
the announced standard; and all
, < .pies were therefore returned to the
authors.
Some of the manuscripts examined
gave evidence of scholarship and
painstaking care, but the committee
feit that none of them promised to
make a contribution to the religious
literature of our day that would jus
tify the expense of publication.
The contest for the Prize Book of
IH22 is now open, and manuscripts
will be received up to December 31,
1 !?22.
The conditions of the contest are
as follows:
1 1 ) The author must be a member
of the Southern Presbyterian Church.
(2) The book must deal with vital
I resent-day themes and promote the
interest o fevangelical Christianity.
(3) The manuscript must be sub
mitted without the name of author
attached and identified by number.
The author will advise in a separate
letter that a manuscript has been sent,
Hiving full particulars so that the
copy can be properly identified.
? 4 ) The manuscript must be sub
mitted in typewritten form, divided
into chapters of moderate length, and
ready for the printer.
t r> ) The Executive Committee will
appoint a competent committee of
judges each year, to whom all manu
scripts will be submitted.
(6) All things being equal, the
award will be made for a book of
moderate size which the Executive
Committee believes is especially
needed. The Executive Committee
will advertise each year certain
themes on which it is believed books
are needed.
(7) The award will not be made
simply upon the ground of scholar
ship, but also upon the availability of
the book for general circulation. The
conviction of the committee that the
hook will meet a real need, and that
there will be a demand for it, will
have much to do with the making of
the award.
(8) When the decision is renOered
by the Examining Committee the
name of the successful contestant will
be announced and the volume will be
issued at the earliest practicable mo
ment. The Publication Committee
will reserve the right to amend or
change the title suggested by the au

author concerning revisions in the
manuscript that may seem desirable.
(9) The Executive Committee of
Publication will pay the author of
the accepted manuscript 10 per cent,
of the retail price of all copies sold,
and will bear all the cost of publish

(10) The Executive Committee of
Publication reserves the right to de

While books on other subjects will

"The Mission of the Twentieth Cen

It is requested that manuscripts
shall not contain over 60,000 words

is for short, crisp and timely books,

BRYAN ANSWERS DARWIN, IN HIS CHALLENGING BOOK
IN HIS IMAGE
By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN
266 Pages. Cloth, $1.75
"In this book Mr. Bryan deals with some of the fundamentals of our faith, not in a
technical way, but in a way to appeal to the masses of our thoughtful people. He is
quite at home in handling the subject of religion. No public man of modern times has
ever spoken and written more constantly on religious themes than he. not even Mr.
Gladstone. His long experience as a student and teacher of the Bible, nis unsurpassed
power of effective popular statement, and his unique command of the world's attention,
indicate him as the right man to speak a reassuring word from the layman's point of view
to those who in our time have been confused by current skepticisrfl, especially to those of
our young people who have been unsettled by the teaching given In their schools. One
need not agree with him in every point of detail in order to appreciate the value of the
service he has here rendered the evangelical faith. The first three chapters, on God, the
Bible, and Christ, are concerned with the foundations of religion; most of the others
deal with applied Christianity. Hon. James M. Beck, the eminent publicist of Phila
delphia, though disagreeing radically with most of Mr. Bryan's political views, says he
has affected tne public thought of America and the character of its institutions more than
any other political leader of our day and generation, with the single exception of Theodore
Roosevelt. There are many who would not even make that exception. This book is
going to have an enormous circulation, and it will be interesting to observe the extent to
which the author's already nation-wide influence will be increased by this sturdy defense
of old-fashioned religion." ? W. W. Moore, President, Union Theological Seminary,
Richmond, Virginia.
