INTERESTING BOOK REVIEW

Doubleday's big novel for May is
"The Bridegroom Cometh," by Waldo
Frank, May 10th. This is an inter
probation of the true religious spirit
as opposed to narrow religiosity. The
heroine, Mary Donald, is brought up
in household where education, care
of teeth, clothes and other worldly
matters are dismissed as unimportant
because of the imminence of the COM
ing of the Bridegroom. A deep and
religious impulse makes Mary want
to give her love and devotion, but
narrow prejudice around her frus-
trates her. Mary is appalingly vul-
nerable, and form her childhood on
the reader watches her APPROACH what
seems her inevitable destruction.
Mary's religious fervor becomes hui
manitarian fervor. She joins the
workers and at last discovers love.
The story is somber, definitely Soc
ial commentary rather than story.
But is truthful and has power, in spite
of it's wordiness and heaviness.

light, superficial, witty-an entertain

"Sir Adam Disappeared" by E.
Phillips Oppenheim MAY 13th) is a
complete story of mystery. A million
aire baker disappears from his club
and the dead body of an unknown man
is found on the floor of the vaults OF
his bank. Thus begins full-length

"The Prisoners At Hearty Break

RADIANT LIVING
The Heavenly Temple
By Rev. G.. M. Griffith
Pastor Ridgely M. E. Church
Ridgely, Md.

dStOA ASAuSSAJ NAs 40 OA-s>-
Ridgely, Md.
The massive temples and the lofty
cathedrals of the world are built to
express in stone some great funda-
mental principle of spiritual truth.
The Temple of King Solomon, based
on the symbolism of the Tabernacle
of the wilderness, was composed Of
three symbolic parasitic outer court,
the Holy Place, and the Holy of Holes
expressing the truth that the Holy
God can not be approached except by
holy preparation and life.
The Christian cathedral is also rich
in symbolism. When looked upon
from above it is seen to be in the
form of the cross, emblematic of the
death and atonement of Jesus Christ.
In no less manner the heavenly
Temple referred to by st. John the Di-
vine in his Book of Revelation, is rich
in symbolic significance.
Declares St. John: "Him that over
cometh will I make pillar in the
Temple of my God, and he shall go
no more out: and I will write upon
him the name of my God, and the
name of the city of my God: and I
will write upon him my new name"
This Temple is a symbolic picture
of the truth which st. John hereby
sets before us that the Christian who
remains faithful unto the end will be-
come a vital part of the heavenly and
eternal "House of God"
What a glorious hope we Christ
ions have!
