Sir,-The first two plays in the Men of God series have to me been intensely interesting, and the rest are eagerly awaited-a welcome demonstration of the fact not sufficiently emphasised in these days that against such things as exploitation and oppression, luxurious
indulgence, and costly offerings divorced from mercy and justice, the Bible speaks with utter abhorrence and in stern judgment. Very impressive was the rugged dignity shown in the impersonation of Amos, the shepherd prophet, especially in the Many passages beginning "Thus saith the Lord." May the future see many more presentations of Bible history and teaching so suited to our times, "Argosy" is rather naive if he expects readers to treat as facts his string of assertions.
