The Music Committee of the Eliot Church, Newton, Mass.
(Rev. Wolcott Calkins, D. D.), in choosing a new hymn book
for use in their church, applied the test of singing every tune in
each book under examination. The hymns were studied with
equal care, and as a result the committee decided on Hymns of
the Faith, and ordered about one thousand copies.
Rev. Albert H. Plumb, D. D., Pastor Walnut Avenue Con-
gregational Church, Boston, writes: "I have much enjoyed the
perusal of Hymns of the Faith. It has the great advantage of
comprising, in a manual of convenient form and beautiful me-
chanical execution, many rare hymns and much fine music no-
where else combined, so far as I know."

Rev. F. W. Baldwin, Chelsea, Mass., says of Hymns of the
Faith "In choice of hymns and tunes, in arrangement of the
Psalms for chanting, and in the good taste shown in all its
parts, it is pre-eminent. I believe it is destined to supersede
many of the manuals now in use, and that wherever introduced
it cannot fail to lead to higher and truer forms of worship."

AMERICAN BOOK OF CHURCH SERVICES.

With Selections for Responsive Reading, and full Orders of Service for the Celebration of Matrimony, and for Funerals and other Occasional Ministrations; also, an ample list of Selections of Sacred Music, with References for the Guidance of Pastors and Choristers. Arranged by Rev. Edward Hungerford. 16m0, $1.25. Rev. Daniel Merriman, D. D., Pastor of the Central Church, Worcester, Mass., says of it: "The American Book of Church Services seems to me, on the whole, the best of the kind that has been presented to the churches, harmonizing as it does with the general Congregational tradition in respect to worship, and making a distinct and important advance upon it. . . . I like very much the increased and rightful use which it makes in respect to music, the choir calls, responses, chants, and antiphons. I like also the bringing forward of the litany as a helpful part of worship. Particularly do I like the litany which you propose for the Sunday school. The order for family worship is also excellent."

Correspondence with pastors and church committees with reference to the introduction of "Hymns of Faith" and "Church Services" is cordially invited by the Publishers HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN & CO., BOSTON.
