Even the labor papers are giving it editorial mention as a story of the Great Radical who first among the worlds religious teachers took the part of the under-dog. A current issue of Organized Labor," lead ing radical publication on the Pacific eoast-the seat of Tom Mooney's radicalism, prints a full page, double column editorial on the book with lengthy quotations from the chapter in which the walking delegate of those times addressed group of working class Galileans. The point emphasized by the labor paper is that They who lift the sword shall per ish by the sword" and the very good editorial winds up by saying of the age-long conflict between capital and labor, "The solution lies in finding a common ground, recognizing a common interest in the we'll being of all humanity
 A critic in Los Angeles said of the book, It Is the greatest literary pro- duction of this generation If it shall succeed in making an appeal to both the religious and the laboring classes 1t will be at leastesomething out of the ordinary.

RABCOCK NOVEL
 BEATS BEN-HUR
MINISTER'S AND THE PRESS I1NITE IN PRAISE OF THE COMING OF THE KING" BY MRS. BERNIE BABCOCK OF PULASKI HEIGHTS.

The storm of protest to the au- tbor of the new biblical romance in which the Christ is a central figure and treated from his human side, has mi materialized to date. It is true, bishop immediately put his taboo on it, and several clergymen have referred to 1t as atrocious, vicious and profane. A few literary critics have also placed it with kindergar- fen attempts to do something that never should have been undertaken.
 But the chorus of praise and ap- proyal rings loud and is a fine sign of the broadening vision and interest in biblical matters written for 20th century understanding and a love for the human Christ whose overshadow- ing personality marks the romance.
 As echoes of comment and opinion the following quotations are inter- esting: @The Bookseller, Newsletter and Stationer," New York, closes a review by saying, With the triumph of the resurrection the narrative closes. the latter marked by excep- tional power and pathos, making the whole profoundly human and vivid picture of the greatest of all dramas"
 In lengthy review the New York Times says: This new novel is an ambitious venture, for, while the story of Christ is full of dramatic situations and thrilling scenes, it is one that is difficult to shape into the lines and proportions demanded by the art of fiction. IL Is often notably fine in its descriptive passages Its author has been es- pecially successful in the realization of character and she has succeeded in breathing life, reality, into both her scenes and her people.
 Mrs Babcock writes" says the Philadelphia Public Ledger, with fine literary distinction. Those who admire 'Ben-Hur' will find this an absorbing book and one of better lit erary qualiy.''
 0freligious opinion there is much. William l. Clarke, editor of the New Era Magazine, official organ of the Presbyterian Church, in his excellent review of ''that notable new book, The Coming of the King, says: Gen. Lew Wallace set the high water mark for this class of literature with his 'Ben-Hur-a tale of the Christ. Many will judge that Mrs. Babeock in The Coming of the King has pro- duced work worthy to stand beside Ben-Hur because of its bigness and breadth and beside Henry Van Dykes The Other Wise Man because ot its idylIic beauty and spiritual maginativeness." Referring to the chapter, Orange Blossoms, this writ CT says it is as audacious as it is aFhstic. He does not approve the love scene, but says in the main the book is lofty in purpose and its gen. eral effect on the reader is exalta ton. The spirit of the narrative bor- ders on sublimity. Love and broth erhood are its message and mankind IS led away from human things toward divinity
 From clergymen all over the coun- ny come words of commendation. Tn many places, leading ministers are recommending the book for close reading both on account of the hu- eaalty of Christ, as intensely set iOrth' and the historical value of the
