(The Editor, “White Ribbon.’’) Though, as a mere man, not eligible to be a member of your Union, yet I was recently privileged to read one of the books in your library, "Who is This Jesus?” and wish to tell you how much and favourably I was impressed by it. It presents the old truths in a fresh and arresting light. I take it that the author is one of those “wise householders who can bring out of her treasure house things new" as well as “old.” I sincerely hope the book wilt be much in demand among your members. Yours truly, R. HAMES.
