WHAT MEN LIVE BY; Work. Play,
Love. Worship. By Richard C.
Cabot NJ. D., assistant professor Of
medicine, Harvard University. Bos-
ton: Houghton Mifflin Company.
The source of this book is as en-
couraging as its contents are gratifying
and helpful. That doctor of medicine
should openly espouse a line of human
conduct. as a means of curing sick
bodies and crippled souls. is in itself a
big tribute to the honesty. the intelli-
gence and the common sense Of that
doctor of medicine. In hearty and robust
vein Dr. Cabot discusses the fundamental
human activities of work, play, love and
worship, as agencies of certain healing,
as sources of an ingrained health. II,
rightly understood and properly blended,
these are enlisted to the service OF an
incorruptible well-being. A book bear
ing this subtitle might easily be float
ing, elusive bubble of distractions. Not
this book though. This book. on the
contrary, is concrete and practical. 1t Is
crowded with facts, illustrations and sug-
mon current of life through a happy
combination of expert specialized knowl-
edge and the good grip Of q man whose
feet stand plumb to the ground. 1t is a
practical, everyday book, but never a
dull one. 1t is a book of deep sentiment,
but with never a trace of sentimentality
about it. religious book with no
shadow of cant. or merely good" talk,
