The book recalls that couplet from Kipling: "Adam was a gardener and God, students of religious subjects is "We Would Know Jesus," by Dr John Adams Scott, who holds the John C. Shaffer professorship of Greek in Northwestern University. This volume comprises the four lectures delivered in 1936 on tha John C. Shatter Foundation at Northwestern University for promotion of the appreciation of the life, character, teachings and influence of Jesus. The purpose of this series of lectures is to substantiate the records and claims of Jesus Christ as far as possible from nonblblical sources.

It Is, Indeed, a record of what remains after the dust of research and criticism of the last century has settled. These results; only increase the evidence in favor of the position of JesuB. Further dimincHon to this contribution Is by the fact that the author is not a theologian but a profsssor of Greek. Consequently, there la less likelihood of pet theories to support. Senses War Spirit.

But while she was considering the technical problems of mountain landscape painting in water colors a thing more difficult to do than if painting in oil that would permit brushing over surfaces again and again she was all the while subconsciously influenced by nature's mood big and dark and powerful and was under a still more subtle influence that could sense the spirit of war. About twelve good-sized mountain landscapes some of them with clustered villages, glimpses of water and tragic-clouded skies are included in Miss Bradley's exhibition of recent water colors that opened in the front gallery of the H. Lieber Company Ch anges Announced in List of Prizes For Thirteenth Annual Hoosier Salon heels. But Mrs. Hobbs is an appreciative audience, and gleans what botanical information she can to send to her daughter, Dorothy, whose gardening ability Is hardly better than her mother's.

They are obviously hot house plants, and turn to gardening only when it becomes fashionable. Cousin Bcrta Randolph is another person strangely out of cast among garden enthusiasts particularly Mrs. Tutwiler. Ah! There's a horticulturallst for you! But when one has spent thirty-three years studying catalogues and planting and digging up to plant again, one should know enough Latin to call plants by their botanical rather than their nicknames. In who marie him, sees That half of all good gardening Is done upon the knees." This book may, and probably will, turn you into a gardener, but It leaves you with no Illusions.

The truth is Impressed upon you that gardening Is work, back-breaking but glorious, which will yield you rich returns, unless you are the wrong sort, of person. The four lectures constitute the four chapters of the volume. Tho stead of being the quiet sort, like her growing things, Mrs. Tutwiler Is Intoxicated with her flowers, so that she exudes information the moment first one is entitled "Our Knowledge of Jesus From Non-Biblical f'ourccs," and is really tho idea around which all the chapters center. In this chapter, however, tho distinct, contribution Is the witness other than Christian historians present that, without their Intent, confirm tho Scriptural record.

Among these eontrlbutors are Josophus, Tacitus, Tllny, Lucian and tha early Church lathers who present the evidence of previous training and influence. Story Graphically Related. any one is within sound of hpr Kindred Hook for Children. A kindred book written for children but perhaps of even more Interest to adults who associate much with flowers, is "Flowers and Their Travels" (RohbB-Merrlll) by Frances Margaret Fox, Here are set forth most readably the legends of the flowers from ancient times, together alone Is sufficient reason for possess ing the book. Confirm Purity of Text.

A few valuable statements taken from here and there are these: "Th first and most important truth to draw from these papyri is that they confirm the essential purity of tha existing gospel text." "So far as I know, not a single discovery ha ever confirmed the conclusion of destructive criticism in biblical literature." "It is a well-recognized fact that not a single doctrine of the church, not a hope or a belief of Christianity rests solely upon a doubted or a disputed text." "Take it all in all. we have more evidence for the life of Christ outside the New Testament than for the existence of any except very few of ancient times," The last paragraph of the volume is really a personal testimony of tha writer and reveals not only his gracious personality, but also the con structive character of this volume. "My great teacher, Prof. Gilder sleeve, said, when lecturing on Plato, that 'Socrates reached an arm's last Monday to continue through this week. There are eighteen water colors of approximately the same large size, all mounted with wide white mats, and with narrow gold frames.

All but three of these are horizontal. The three uprights include the only flower subject, also a tree landscape and a picture of fishermen. Small Pictures In Tempera. Hung in two small groups are nine additional pictures, diminutive as to size, (hat were painted in tempera in Mexico, New England and in Portugal. These are mounted with colored mats that harmonize or contrast with the landscape, village or coast scenes that are skillfully drawn and painted with a buoyant grace and charm.

Titles of these are: "Booth Bay Harbor," "Rockport, Maine," No. 1 and No. "Gloucester, Massachusetts," Nos. 1 and "Taxco, Mexico," Nos. 1 and "St.

Nicholas Church, Taxco" and "Cin-tra Portugal." A change that was barely detected in Miss Bradley's work as exhibited last year, is pronouncedly evident in the present exhibit. Instead of cen The second Iciture on "The Preservation of th: Gospels" relates graphically that story. Without definite plan, even after years of neglect to put pen to parchment, there grew up records more authentic, which the records discovered In these late csn-turlos substantiate In detail, than any secular history of the anciont periods. It never entered "the minds of the authors of the Gospels or of tha letters to the early churches that with their origin and history where they first grew and how they came to our shores. Romance, glamour and mystery a-plonty Here is a sample: "In Europe during the middle ages, salnris were made as now, of lettuce and onions; but In those days of minstrels and troubadours, the cooks not only used the blossoms and leaves of nasturtiums that, had sailed over the seas from South America, but they added chopped violets to tho salad.

Sometimes thoy boiled violets, and with a seasoning of savory and fennel, made a. kind of soup. For dessert, the Indies of the castle occasionally served stewed roses. Violets and other flowers, pop voice. But whatever may bo said about Mrs.

Tutwiler, her enthusiasm is genuine; she "knows her Btuff" and struts it, too All of which makes our gardener-author have a deal more patience with her than with those other women who have suddenly turned to gardening because it has become the thing to do. Besides telling many other bits of information, this book certainly shows us what spectacles we must have made of ourselves In gardens, where human nature is perhaps best studied, along with daffodils and bleeding hearts and portulaca. What, must the gardeners have thought of our Ignorance? How quickly does deceit show itself! The book reads like a story of town life In Virginia, with three-dimensional characters well set. forth. But while you are being thus entertained, you are to learn that cosmos, zinnias, marigolds and calendulas are he easiest grown that lantanas have brilliant blossoms, stand the drouth well and are easily raised; that Daphne cneorum is fragrant and beautiful, likes sunshine and not much water something to write home about; that you should have one restful and secluded length toward Christ it was only an arm's length, but it was toward they were writing for posterity; yet some hand, more than human, Ingeniously brought them together In the New Testament.

This is one of ples and marigolds, lavender, lilies and roses, thnt grew Inside the castle walls In medieval gardens were served for dinners." Again to paraphrase: Adam was a gardener, but. judging from the looks. Much of all good gardening now is done from reading books. CONTRIBUTED VERSE. tering her interest in the details of form and color to be seen in a close-up view, the artist has represented the big, simple masses in her landscape compositions.

Of course the locality in which she painted has had much to do with this. It may not be so much a question of looking at things in a different way as having different things to look at. Methods Suited to Subject. On former European painting excursions Miss Bradley frequently found her subjects in foreign streets where romantic, flower-decorated balconies and winding steps and many-windowed house-walls introduced an element of intriguing romance into the picture, or where gayly costumed peasants and baskets of fruits and flowers meant finding the chief interest in varied form and color. But this summer the dark mountains of the Basque country loomed before the artist.

The difficult accomplishment of putting mass and solidity into the construction of mountain landscapes, when the painting is done with water colors, has been such that an artist who paints mountains with oil pig The Frank F. Hummel memorial prize of is offered attain thin year lo an Indiana artist who exhibits the b'st autumn landscape in (he thirteenth annual 'Hoosier Salon. The picture, "Hardin Holler," won the award for Joe Spurgeon when the prize was first given by Mrs. Hummel, It is just this fact that tha greatest man of the most intellectual city and at its most exalted period saw but dimly and partially that which Jesus saw so clearly and so completely and with such assurance, which has strengthened my faith that the Carpenter of Nazareth and the companion of simple men of lowly Galilee must have been something more than a man." A Worthy Book to Own. These chapters are filled with the results of scholarship.

The reader is not compelled to plough through, nor possibly be lost in the multitude of details of evidence. It Is worth placing on the shelves of preachers, Bible students and others seeking to strengthen their faith in the gospels of Jesus Christ. Or, Scott has been a member of the faculty at Northwestern Univer slty since 181)7 and has an international reputation in the field of Greek scholarship. He is the editor of the Classical Journal and has published several volumes growing out of his studies of Homer and Socrates and the Greek civilization of their "We Would Know Jesus" is from the Abingdon Press the romantic chapters of history. That Luke was a Greek gives the author the right to include "Luke the Greek Physician" as a nnn-blbllcal witness.

Luke brought to his plan of investigation as to whether these things were so, tha Greek characteristics of a broader basis of Judgment than the Jewish writers of the Gospels, an astounding thoroughness in attention to the smallest details, and the determination to get at the truth. There are two noticeable facts In this lecture. The first one Is the confirmation In minutiae of detail that later discovered documents have made to Luke's record; and second? the delightfully readable biography of Luke, the author has made by covering the bones of the bare facts wo possess about him with flesh from a sympathetic Imagination. To the reviewer, however, the manner in which Socrates, prepared the thinking world for the coming of such an one as Jesus Christ is the most vivid portion of this volume. It gives a richer significance to the phrase "and when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth His son."
