SKYSCRAPERS-AND ART

Some day, when all of life's more puzzng prob

out their days in peace and concord we are going
to start campaign for and better skyscrapers.
There are understand serious objections to

great mass of people in small area, so that traffic
is unduly congested, street riders have stand

All Of these things may we'll be true for all we
know. Such issues can be left to experts. They
do rot count in this discussion

The skyscraper is at it's best when it is about

But the Canadian plan the Quebec plan) does not

1 will remember Case and Com.
ment" by this one assertion OF Mr..
Howland: Men think of Christian.
ity as an easy religion and so IL Is
as exhibited in the lives OF many of
those who profess it. But there is
nothing easy in it as it was preached
and lived by its Author. 1t is a
great, and maybe fatal mistake, to
think of it as making few and easy
demands on men, for the contrary
is true. Nothing, for instance, is
harder than this very business of
preparation If it is honestly and
bravely carried on. For that involves
sacrifices, often of the most serious
and painful sort. To prepare for the
dawn of perfection on human life
means that there must be an effort
to attain perfection by the one who
prepares. or would prepare"
Here is big thought and it is eX-
pressed in the chapter on "Prepar-
ation," on page 80 of case and
Comment"
The real value of this book is that
it seems to fit in with the various
religious seasons, IL there be such
term.
The author speaks quietly, but
there is conviction and even a sub
stantial aid towards one mental prep
aration toward the Christian life.
