THE MAN WHO PLAYED
GOD by Robert St. John (Double
day $5.95). This panoramic novel
of World War II is set in two
parts of the world which Robert
St. John, foreign correspondent,
knows well; the southeastern cor
ner of Europe and Israel. Seven of
his fourteen books have been
about Israel; four others have
been set in southeastern Europe.
“The Man Who Played God” is
for the story of one Hungarian Jew
who risked the stigma of being
called a collaborator to purchase
from the Nazis freedom for near
ly two thousand of his own peo
ple. The author says that he in
tended it as an Everyman story,
posing for the reader the ques
tion: What would I have done in
his place?
The book grew out of St. John’s
experience as a war correspon
dent and his acute awareness that
during any war not only most
soldier's but many civilians are
called I upon to make soul-search
ing decisions. The first section is
set in I Budapest where the author
lived during the first year of the
war Md where he saw the start
of thl tragedy that befell Hun-
garial Jews. 'The last^aii; of the
cotrespondenr,, he covered the in
vasion of six Arab armies and
their subsequent defeat by young
Israeli guerilla soldiers.

THE MOON-SPINNERS by
Mary Stewart (Mill-Morrow
$4.50). When Nicola Ferris, secre
tary at the British Embassy in
Athens, arrives one day early for
her holiday in Agios Georgios, a
chain of events is set into motion
that changes her life and that of
a young Englishman.
Mark Langley, his younger
brother Colin and their guide
Lambis, tourists like Nicola, are
unwilling witnesses to a killing.
Mark is shot and Colin taken as
hostage. When Nicola discovers
Mark’s hideout in the hills, he
not only refuses her help but
sends her back to the village so
as not to involve her in his own
danger. Nicola reluctantly leaves
to join her cousin who is to meet
her at the local hotel and both
women are caught up in the life
and dangers of the mysterious
Englishman.
While I didn’t find this novel as
engrossing as Miss Stewart’s
“Nine Coaches Waiting,” it is a
skillful blending of love story,
mystery and travelogue of Crete
that will keep the reader enter
tained from start to happy end.

T he same man or woman will
be admired by different peo
ple for different reasons. Our
Lord was no exception. What is
it in Jesus that draws, as he said,
“all men” to himself? It is now
as it was then.
Not every one
would say the
same. The four
Gospels are not
alike, and one
reason they are
not alike is that

lists (writers of
the gospels) found

of .lesus’ life and thought chal
lenging and compelling. Mark,
from whose short book these Bible
studies for the next three months
are to be taken, was drawn to
Jesus on account of what he did
rather than what he said. Jesu.s
is here introduced to us as die
mighty Son of God, who demon
strated his right to be Master of
Men by his acts of power. Jesus
had a meek and gentle side, hr
there is not much in Mark abou

Not by Age, not by Books
When is a man ready to go out
and begin his life’s work? Many
young people begin too soon. They
drop out of high school and get
married, they are burdened with
the cares of a job (or trying to
find one) and a family at a time
when they should still be prepar
ing for such responsibilities. Oth
ers keep on “preparing” because
they are actually afraid to go out
and get into the swing and the
fight of living. A person is not
necessarily ready when he has
read a certain number of books.
A book, many books, can heip
handily in preparing those who
read them for active useful living;
but a young man may have put
his nose into many books without
ever naving put his mind into a.iy
one of them. In many book.s is
much knowledge: but in many
books may be little wisdom. Age
by itself wiU not prepare a youth
tor living. In two states young
people can legally vote at the age
of 18; in two others, 19 and 20;
and in all the rest, 21. The theory
ts that anybody old enough to
fight is old enough to vote. But
is this true? Does any one sup
pose that every boy or girl just
turned 21 is suddenly endowed
with the sense and the ability lo
make the serious choices (ie-

The call of God
Jesus of Nazareth, be it reri:,-
bered, was not a bookish nu
He knew his Bible, but tliere is r.
evidence that he had attended aiiy
of the great schools of that day.
His “ignorance” was always
thrown up to him by those who
failed to “see” him. Furthermore,
Jesus was what some would call
over-age before he embarked on
his life-work. He was thirty years
old before beginning to preach.
Book-wise, he was less than ready;
age-wise, he was more than ready.
But he considered these things (if
at all) as being far down the list
of indispensables. Jesus did not
enter on his life-work until he
was convinced that he had a
divine caU. Now th# call of God
comes to people in various ways.
But surely it stands to reason that
no matter what you know or have
experienced, if you set out on a
course God does not want you ■

The Voice of the Tomptei
There was once a dcdicai ,-..
woman missionary. On her fur
loughs in this country, she would
go from college to college, look
ing for those who had volunteered
to go as foreign missionaries. She
would talk to these young people,
and try as hard as she could to
persuade them not to go. She
turned more than two hundred
away in this fashion; but those
who could not be discouraged
were the ones she was looking for.
They were the ready ones. Now
if it is necessary to hear the voice
ot God (which may well come to
us in the voice of a friend or loved
one) before we are actually pre
pared for our life’s work great or
small as God wills, it is also well
that we should listen (as Jesus
had to) to the voice tempting us
to do something else, anything
else but what God calls us to do
Only those are truly ready wh'
have learned to say NO to '
Evil One.
