BOOK REVIEWS
By W. L. SCHMIDT
Heads Accountants
Sociology has become a one
sided study of human existence;
a compilation of facts and figures,
considering the biophysical and
psychological layer of human
existence. Consciously or un
consciously, therefore, an abstrac
tion has been made that has
warped man's idea of man. The
life of man on earth is a super
natural life by reason of the soul
which is intimately joined with
the body, and in sociology the
study of the natural and super
natural should be combined. That
is the reason for Don Luigi Sturze
subtitling his work THE TRUE
LIFE (St. Anthony Guild Press,
Patterson. N. J., $3.00) a Sociology
Of The Supernatural. The true
life is the complete life, and in its
examination least of all should
its supernatural character be
pushed aside. This book is sig
nificantly important. It attempts
and succeeds in synthesizing the
life of man called individually and
collectively to a vocation helping
the development of a society un
endingly proceeding towards a
definite goal. Keeping in mind
the whole of man in the light of
the arguments presented in this
book would help scholars, his
torians and what-not understand
the progress of man and civiliza
tion more comprehensibly and
perfectly. Though justice to the
book cannot be given in such a
short space, one remark must be
made. The excellent English
translation has lent clarity to Don
Luigi’s admirable study. Not only
will Catholic sociologists find this
an inspirational work. but
thoughtful Catholics and non-
Catliolics interested in the study
of man will gather strength
through the knowledge gained
from reading this presentation.
Francis Clement Kelley's lat
est. TALES FROM THE REC
TORY, (Bruce Publishing Co.,
Milwaukee. $2.25) is just what its
title implies—a book of stories,
twenty-three in all, each filled
with life and imagination charac
teristic of Bishop Kelley. There
are imaginative flights into
heaven, stories of the monastery,
of black souls and white souls,
each tale with a strong plot that
after the few minutes required for
reading it the reader can say he
has met with pleasing enjoyment.
But with each enpoyment there is
left an indelible impression, the
lesson of good and evil, clothed
not in preachy, pietous words, but
in our everyday English language.
Another book demonstrating
Bishop Kelley’s power of writing
and his priestly longing to instill
the virtuous in his readers.
For five cents a copy of The In- i
ternational Catholic Truth Society j
of Brooklyn, N. Y., will send you j
a booklet on each of the seven
sacraments written by Rev. Fran
cis Connell, C. SS. R., that will be
helpfully instructive. For the
same amount an interesting book
let on DIVORCE AND MAR-
RIAFE, by Rev. VV. P. Sullivan
can be obtained, one that will ex
plain the cause of divorce, the
Church’s attitude toward it, and
erase a lot of difficulties from 'he
minds of those Catholics not up
on the subject. These pamphlets
may be in the rack at the entrance
to your church. That will make
obtaining them all the more easy.
St. Anthony’s Guild Press, of
Paterson, N. J., is the publisher

mation, facts and figures. Its
