Popularity of Canadian Book Week has grown steadily since that time in spite of the wartime difficulties, still present, of shortage of paper and of labor for the manufacture of books. Partly because such shortages, most acute in countries such as (ireat Britain, reduced the flow of books into Canada, Canadian publishers did what they could to make up the lack and even more to meet a tremendously increased apetite for books throughout the Dominion. Canadian books and the growing ranks of Canadian authors (growing in importance as well as numbers) will be featured in commercial book displays and in library exhibits throughout the country from Nov. 2 to Nov.

Declarer tested the Cimonds by leading the queen and deuce, but when West showed out, South cashed the ace of clubs, then did not even need the third diamond trick.

Geoffrey Francis Fisher, Archbishop of Canterbury, although of short duration, was most timely. We are so scattered across this continent, that it is not easy for us to re member that we are one church in the Dominion, and a part of that historic Anglican Communion throughout world. His Grace's visit has drawn to Geoffrey Francis Fisher. til together in a very special way, jYou forget the position as you and has accomplished much in the listen to the man, 'strengthening of the tie between the Church In Canada, the Church in the United States, and the Mother Churrh in England. His utter lack cf ostentttion, his jdeep spirituality, his real scholarship, made an impression upon all 1 people, which will remain for years to come.

The late William Temple', one of the outstanding English primates of all time, was known everywhere by a series of thought provoking and forward looking books. When Dr. Fisher succeeded him he was overshadowed In the minds of mtny by the memory of Archbishop Temple's extraordinary brilliance and leadership. We were prepared to see In his successor a much lesser man. who in comparison would suffer i Breatly.

Such was not the case. Books Received nowever, lorur. rimer, wnonccn a real test in coming to America, met it well beyond expectation and left the impression of being a very wise and talented man, of wide vision, of statesmanlike grasp, an educationalist, a lead er of tnougnt, eminenuy equal to his high office and the urgency of the hour, and a splendid Interpreter of the position and genius ef our Church of England. Whether In Church. In lecture hall, on station platform or In social gatherings Dr.

Fisher had the faculty of becoming au fait with his audience, due no doubt to his love of human beings and his concern and sympathy for them in life. He proved to be a simple, humble man of fine Intellect and noble spirit, of deep Christian conviction and sincerity, with no question of his competence. You saw the man and when you heard him speak, you felt thtt you knew him. There was a natural spontaneity about his speaking, no boring evidence of elaborete preparation as to words and phrases. His language was always impressively simple, and yet you were refreshed and stimulated as you listened to his clever arrangement of sentences, reversing a mind well stored and enriched by studyand experience.

When an Archbishop of Canterbury speaks people naturally listen. The historic position in itself is impressive. When the present illustrious occupant of that See speaks, you listen, not to the Archbishop, Every one who heard him In hit sermons and addresses at Toronto and Winnipeg felt that every word could be understood by the youngest and the simplest of hit hearert. They were marked by learning steadfast faith and humor. No dignitary of the Church in England has ever come to Canada and made such a favourable Im pression.

We are (grateful for his visit. His smile fascinated everyone. He was so readily approachable, put everybody at ease, and his great gifts of Christian humility and simplicity were plainly evi dent. In representing the Anglican I Communion he will command res pect and confidence everywhere. November 2, 1946.
