While we are told that this new council is to be effective if and when war comes, its sig- nificance lies in the fact that Germans as a whole are learning the truth of the situation from British and French propaganda now penetrating the hitherto dictator—Censored Fatherland, and are no longer content to accept without “assur- Ince" the Nazi propaganda.

preface the author exprases tape hope that while the illustrative ex- umplas are drawn from the soume,

historical lines and the reader mus enabled to observe the no

of a. vital part. of Christian worship through the centuries. As the sto of this development is one of th things that are “good to know an worthy to be told." if brief surve of Dr. MacMillan's work may be attempted in the belief that most: ohurchgoers are interested in the history of their favorite hymns of praise. some idea of the scope of] the work may be gathered from the fact. that the index of authors translators. composers and sourcer contains 260 names, and the boolr contains longer or shorter refer- ences to nearly 700 hymns which are also listed by "first. lines" in an‘ index.

The early Chrisunns, as was natural, derived their songs of praise from the Jewish Psalt.er.v supplementary hymns were requir- ed to celebrate the vospel and they apporlatecl the ugnlffoat, tho Be-nedlctus and the Nune Dlmlttls. The Gloria may have glad its origltt in Apostolic times. The second half of it was added later, but is “known to have been well estab- lished" in the sixth century. The Sanctus of the Western Church is from A Greek original adapted and translated into Latin. Of the hymn write’; of the Eastern Church the following general characterization may be quoted, namelv, that "they were more objective han subjec- live" and that "they uttered ador- rip nralse rather than expressed the clmnglng emotions of the soul."
