BOOK REVIEWS (Continued from Page 22) her aunt at a vacation spot on the Canadian Bay of Fundy. Eli nor, an only child, meets other young people who have varying problems and ambitions. Her own career is undecided, but before the summer is over she has dis covered where her chief gifts and attractions lie, and has also dis covered the joy and satisfaction of being helpful to others whose problems are different from her own. In discussing future plans with young friends, Elinor realiz es that “any work (is) God’s work, if we do it as well as we can, the way He’d want us to do it.” COLONIAL GOVERNOR, by J. E. Hopkins, (Kenedy, $2.50). This is the life of Thomas Don- gan, first Catholic governor of New York. Colonel Dongan’s ar rival from England in 1638 as the Duke of York’s new governor brought guarantees of the right of assembly and lawmaking to the early citizens of the rude set tlement of New York. Dongan was faced with challenges from within and without the colony, the Indians of the Five Nations, the French, the plotters who hat ed him because of his religion, and finally the revoking of the rights given the colony when King James ascended the British throne Dongan’s fight to over come these obstacles and to bring, peace and liberty to the first cit izens of New York is typical of the struggles and upheavals that accompanied the establishment of the first frontiers of our country. SONG OF THE DOVE, by Mary Fidelis Todd, (Kenedy, $2.95). The story of St. Catherine Laboure, to whom Our Lady gave the Miraculous Medal, is here told for children, ages 9-14. Miss Todd also illustrated her book with drawings. She tells the story of the little French peasant girl, Zoe Laboure, who became Sister Catherine when she en tered the Order of the Daughters of Charity. Happily, a large por tion of the story is concerned with her childhood and home life. One of Sister Catherine’s greatest attractions is her humility in keeping secret the fact that it was she to whom Our Lady had appeared. No one ever guessed this until just before her death she was permitted to reveal it to her community; only her con fessor had known of the visions and he had carried out Our Lady’s instructions in having the medal made and distributed. Miss Todds’ story is charmingly told. THE CATHOLIC PUZZLE AND QUIZ BOOK, by Damien Anthony Wenzel, O.F.M., (St. Anthony Guild, $1.00), reviewed by Peggy Lloyd. This little book can be priceless as far as Cath olic information and recreation are concerned Children from 10 to 15 will be enchanted by the numerous puzzles, quizzes, pic tures, and games, all of which have one aim, to instruct the child in, his religion in a pleasant manner. Identifying the priest’s vestments, filling in religious quotations, and identifying Catholic men in history are just a few of the things which will keep the child profitably occu pied. THREE BOOKLETS The following three recently published booklets, on widely divergent subjects, are worth while, each in its own field: CARME LITE DEVOTIONS- and prayers for special feasts of the liturgical year, compiled by a Carmelite Tertiary, printed by the Discalced Carmelite Nuns, 4802 West Wells Street, Milwau kee 8, Wisconsin, price $1.50. A neat, compact, prayerbook-size volume of particular interest to Carmelite tertiaries and ail others who are attracted to the spirit and the saints of Carmel, includ ing of course the two Teresas, St. John of the Cross and others. The compiler has brought to gether previously published ma terial from many sources. Follow ing the selected prayers and de votions are instructive sections on meditation, contemplation, the. Third Order of Mount Carmel, etc., and finally a useful index of the material included. INSTRUCTIONS FOR MIXED MARRIAGES, by Rev. John S. Banahan, (Bruce, $1.00), a help ful, paper-covered booklet which can be given to the non-Catholic partner in a mixed marriage, to help him or her understand the religion of the other partner. The author promises that the “book is not any subtle attempt to make you become Catholic, only to increase your chances for martial hap piness, to make sure that re ligion will not be a fly in the ointment. . It is dedicated “to the multitude of fine and gene rous men and women not of the Catholic Faith who have listened to these talks during the past eight years,” during which the author has worked in the ca thedral parish of the Archdiocese of Chicago and “encountered mixed marriages by the hun dreds.” It is illustrated with hu morous drawings and occasional anecdotes; yet covers seriously the principal points of Catholic doctrine; complete with review questions, prayers, hymns and index. POPE PIUS XII AND THEO LOGICAL STUDIES, edited by Vincent A. Yzermans, (Grail, 50c), contains translations of six papal documents which should be of particular concern to semina rians: “The Christian Conscience as an Object of Education,” . “The Faith and Catholic Youth,” “The Teaching Authority of the Church,” “The Church and Its Powers of Sanctifying and Rul ing,” “Clerical Studies,” and the encyclical “Humani Generis” — also an introduction and an arti cle by Father Yzermans on “Pope Pius XII and Theological Novel ty.” Although the “booklet is in tended primarily for those who are presently preparing to share in the Priesthood of Christ,” ev ery serious student of the prob lems which “weigh so heavily upon the mind of our Holy Fath er” will find it interesting and in structive. Unfortunately poor proof-reading has resulted in too many typographical errors. FICTION THE STRANGERS WERE THERE, by John Bell Clayton, (Macmillian, $3.75) This is an impessive collec tion of stories by the late John Bell Clayton. According to in formation on the jacket, the sto ries “Display a lively versatility in subject, mood, and treat ment. . . .” but this seems to be the case only in subject. Mr. Clayton was a newspaperman and his stories cover a wide range of life though the setting for all of them is a small Virginia town and its environs. The sto ries are unified by this setting but also by the tone, which is subdued and elegiac even when the matter at hand is violent. The writing is always honest and sometimes, as in 1 “The White Cir cle,”; it is exciting.—F. O’Connor. During vacation days some people stop trying to balance the budget and begin budgeting the balance. ST.
