Patten, M.C., M.A., Literary Superintendent. The Popular Report of this world- wide Society has just been issued. Its form is abbreviated ,ands there is only, apart from the frontispiece, one illustration, St. Paul's Cathedral 29th -30th December, 1949. The title is surely timely in view of "the struggle between the forces that stand for Christian freedom and the powers that lead to the darkness of pagan servitude." The chapter headings give in outline the plan and sope of the report: "The Book of Freedom;" "Translating the Book of Freedom;" "Handing on the Book of Freedom;" "Freedom's Sacred' Sway;" "What the Book of Freedom Costs." "No religious organization feels the repercussions of international politics more acutely than the Bible Society." In vivid phrase and with timely literary and topical illustra- tions, the story of another year's pro- gress in Bible Society work is finely portrayed and graphically described. As far as Europe is concerned the following sentence illustrates the pos- ition: "only in Portugal has the work continued without more than the or- dinary difficulties." Amidst -the present tribulation, and in the darkness that shrouds a great part of the world in these clays, the work carried on by the British and Foreign Bible Society is surely vindi- Namsamszweasmorar FREE SHO' Town Hall, Clinton, 8 p.m. February 4th See the .New Shur -Gain Movie and comedy ENTERTAINING INSTRUCTIVE You'll enjoy these Pictures You'll learn the latest in Feeding and Management of hogs and poultry.

The value of Presentation New Testaments for those serving with the Forces of the Crown is em- phasized. As far as finance is concerned, the report states: People have been amaz- ingly generous, and in spite of the high rate of taxation few have allow- ed their subscriptions to lapse , . . there are already indications that the Society's friends are rallying to its support, and we face the future with confident 'hope." The need of in- creased sacrificial giving is clearly indicated. Mr. Patten* Popular 'Report is worthy of the Society he represents, and above all of the Book it Circula- tes. Indeed the world work accomp- lished as described in this:. ,Report, makes it possible to use with truth Mr. Churchill's famous phrase: "This was their finest hour." „ V Wanted Old horses and cattle for mink feed.
