A P. E. ISLAND AUTHOR

We are in receipt of a book re- cently issued from the University of Chicago Press entitled “The Rise of Christianity“ by Frederick Owen Norton, Professor of New Testa- ment Literature ln Crozer Theolog- ical Semlnary, Illinois.

The author is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Frederick T. Norton of Brud- onell, this province. He is ‘a grad- uate of Prince of Wales College and taught school for a number of years. He was a diligent student and by his own efforts climbed to the University professorship which he now holds. He visits his island home every summer and dur- ing his visit. last summer. preached very acceptably in the Chris- tian church. this city.

The Rise of Christianity. as the title indicates ls a study of the sources from which the Christian religion developed. It gives in concise and interesting form a complete story of the origin and message of Christianity aad its de- velopment to the point where it became established as a world rs- ligion. A vivid description of- the world out of which Christianity arose is given and a singularly. la- tsresling interpretation of the- or- iginal sources. The New Tests.- ment records srs made especially clear and the unique message of Christianity is presented in terms of present day life and thought. To the student of scripture this book will prove both interesting and instructive and we have plea- 1baos flowing with continually in- sure in commending it both for tbs llfllllll "Milli lllllllt I110 Mlc- sake of its author and for tbs mat-

The proposal to balance the Dominion budget by Increasing tbs tapes of tbs people has been tried and has failed. as it ought to fall. T-he one only rational plan ls to cut down the expenditure. That is what any honest individual or cor- porate body does when it is found that end-s do not meet. That is what Britain and the United States are doing. They are both paying off their debts and both of tihem are also reducing taxation. Canada under the King Government is doing the exact opposite of this by increasing bqh the taxes and the debt. Some small economies have been effected but no honest or con- siderable effort has been made or attempted by the present Govern- ment to bring the yearly outlay within ‘the receipts.

Increased taxes to provide need- less outlay ls simply suicidal.

it is true of the individual as ot tbs nation that no progress can be made by taking attpa that must bs retraosd.
