The R.P.A. Annual is to hand, and contains quite a number of interesting contributions by notable writers. A symposium, "Will Orthodox Christianity Survive tho World War; 1 " conveys tho impressions of a number of representative humanists. Sir Ray Lankester, Leonard Huxley, Hon. John Collier, Siir H. 11. Johnston, Professor J. B. Bury, and tho Rt. Hon. J. M. Robertson, M.P., arc among- thoso who give their individual opinions on this subject. Mr Arnold Rennet, tho well-known novelist, has a thoughtfully-suggestive article, "Religion After tho War.' Another novelist of a philosophic cast of mind, Mr Adam Gowans Whyte writes upon "The Greatest Illusion" ; Mr William Archer deals with "Theology and the War"; Mr Edward Clodd has a congenial subject in "Pro-Animism"; and Mr Eden Phillpotts has to his name a fino poem, "Tho Nco-liths." There are several other papers of varied interest, the whole forming a budget well worthy of permanent preservation. (Watts and Co., 9d net.)
