THE MENACE OF FREEMASONRY TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH,” by Rev. C. Penney Hunt, B.A. Nottingham: The Freedom Press, 8 South Parade. Price 1s net, post free.
For those who have all along remained in ignorance of the official religion of Freemasonry this exposure, as was truly said in a recent review in “The Christian,” must come as a shock. Mr Hunt has presented a most damaging indictment against Freemasonry in its religious ritual and observances. He quotes what Masons have said themselves, and not what their opponents have said. “I confine myself,” he says, “entirely to evidences obtained directly from Masonic sources of the highest order.” He is not attacking individual Masons, he says, for many, perhaps most, who entered the Lodge did so without having the remotest idea of the significance of its religious ritual. Many never trouble to understand it. They have heard of its charitable undertakings, and have been told ministers of religion belonged to it, and acted as chaplains, and that satisfied them. This booklet will come as a revelation to all such, and will show that anything said against Freemasonry at our Synod erred on the side of the most restrained moderation. We recommend this
booklet to all our people, and hope they will purchase it and carefully read it, and if they, too, will not get a shock like “The Christian” reviewer when they discover the kind of religion acknowledged by the Lodge we will be greatly surprised.

Messrs Thynne & Jarvis are to be complimented on the excellent finish of the book and the low price at which it is offered to the public.
MODERN ROMANISM EXAMINED, by the Rev. H. W. Dear-den, M.A. Prefatory Note by the late Bishop Moule. Same Publishers. Price 2s 6d.
This very useful text-book on the Romish Controversy has been issued in a cheap edition by Messrs Thynne & Jarvis. The book is all the more effective because of the fair way in which the writer states his opponents’ case. It covers in an interesting way the whole field of controversy between Romanism and Protestantism. It is a book of over 400 pages, nicely printed and of a pleasing get-up, yet it is offered to the public for the remarkably low price of half-a-crown.
