The Paulist Press has recently pub
lished two books in low-priced editions
COS cents each) that should be of in
terest to laymen.
"Meditations For Everyman'' is a
book of meditations by Father Jo-
seph McSorley of the Paulist Fathers.
The volume affords a daily meditation
for the ~liturgical seasons of Advent
to Pentecost.
The individual selections are SIM
pie, but thought-provoking; short,
but rich with a plethora of spiritual
ideas.
THE BOOK is. the first in a series
destined to cover the entire liturgical
year. Those who are familiar with the
spiritual writings of Father McSorley
will welcome this publication of pop
ular material at a popular price.
a. The other book is more scholarly as
BELTS its author, and it is not for the
layman who is completely uninitiated
to the ideas of speculative theology.

TY" by Jean Danielou is "a compare
tive study of non-C Christian religions
and Christianity"
The work interestingly and rather
thoroughly answers such questions
as: What is involved in conversion
to Christianity? Are christian re-
ligions really a preparation for
Christ? Do these other religions CON
struct a barrier to true Christian full
fillment?
These two paperbacks r a further
sign of the continuing realization Of
the excellent purpose of the Paulist
Press: to make fine Catholic litera-
ture available to all.
Other paperbacks of interest to our
readers have been issued recently by
a number of publishers.

BOOK REVIEW:
From Erdsmus-a book for our times

THE ENCHRIDION, OR HAND
BOOK OF THE MILITANT CHRIS
TIAN by Erasmus, translated and
with an introduction by John p.
DOlan.
Toward the close of the Middle
Ages, and as the light of day was
shining for the first time on Martin
Luther, there was born in this quiet,
unsuspecting city of Rotterdam, a
man named Erasmus.
This mar was destined to become
n of the most controversial figures
of his day; indeed, controversial even
well past his day, surpassed only by
his contemporary, Luther himself.
If ever: a man was born before his
time, here is the classic, unparalleled
example; at least so claims Father
John F. Dolan, author and translator
Of this latest work on the much dis
puted parsonage of Erasmus.
THE ATTITUDE most Catholics
have toward Erasmus, if indeed they
have any. at all, is doubt concerning
his orthodoxy. His name survives in
the Catholic consciousness much the
same as Benedict Arnold's does in
the A~merican-as a name tainted with
treason.
The aim of this book is to demon.
strate the injustice of this memory,
and to reveal a true contribution that
the thought of Erasmus is able to make
to Catholic life, even today.
Erasmus first became a controver-
sial figure by refusing to become
partisan in a violent age. Already IA
nous as a classical scholar, he was ex-
pected by each side of the Lutheran

If there are young readers in your

If they miss the fantasies and fairy

Question: My grandmother
has a wonderfully colorful way
Of talking. Since she grew up
on a farm, her speech perhaps
sounds specially rustic. but we
like 1t anyway. Just the other
night she remarked. in the
course of family discussion
about which of two TV shows
we would watch, Everyone to
their own liking, as the farmer
said when he kissed his cow"
This delighted the children
and they have repeated it many
times since. Can you tell us
where this saying comes from?
Mrs. L. M. T., Washington,
d. c.
Answer: The expression
Everyone to their own liking
as the farmer said when he
kissed the COW" is a variation
on an English folk saying that
goes back at least to the mid
1500s. The version then cur
rent went like this: Every man
as he loveth, quoth the good
man, whan he kyst his coowe. !"
A similar notion is contained
in the well-known French
proverb "Chacun a son gout," "

Question: Please settle an

can term and that the first
cowboys" were those who
herded cattle along the trails
from Texas and Oklahoma to
Kansas City, Independence and
other mid-country railroads.
MY friend insists that he has
heard Of cowboys a half-cen-
tury earlier, at the time of
the. Revolution. Who's right? i?
&C. c. p, Omaha.
Answer: Cowboy" is indeed
an American term-but your
friend is right about its being
used during Revolutionary
times. The cowboys of those
years. however, were a very
different lot-guerilla bands of
Tories operating in what is now
Westchester County, New York.
According to one authority:

Opening lead: Ten Of hearts.
South should go down on
this hand, for example. He
wins the first trick in dummy
with the queen of hearts, gets
to his hand with a diamond
and leads a low spade.
An expert West curlS his lip
at this maneuver. West puts
up the ace of spades and leads
another heart to force out the
ace. West gets in with the ace
Of clubs in time to defeat the
contract with the rest of the
hearts.
Didn't Happen
1t didn't happen that way
when the hand was actually
played, Declarer did win the
first trick in dummy with the
queen Of hearts and did reach
his hand with a diamond to
lead a spade. But West played
a low spade instead of taking
the ace.
This slip allowed declarer to
steal a spade trick. Now he
could abandon the spades and
go after the clubs. He was
sure Of one spade, two hearts,
three diamonds and three clubs,
for game and rubber.
West had an excuse for not
taking the ace of spades. He
was afraid that South still held
the ace-jack of hearts. If so,
1t was essential to let East lead
the next heart, and the only
real chance was that East had
the queen of spades.
1t wasn't much of an excuse,
since South would not be at
tacking spades so promptly If
he were missing both the ace
and queen. Surely South would
begin on the clubs first. But
it does go to show that even
a good defender can make q
mistake if he's forced to make
up his mind very quickly.
The real villain of the hand
was East. but nobody saw his
crime. He should have played
the jack Of hearts at the first
trick to prevent any possible
misunderstanding.
