H. G. Wells' New Novel

A

6

The Soul of a Bishop"

NEW Wells novel! The words will carry a thrill to anyone who read last year's sensational COLLIER serial "Mr. Britling Sees It Through."

As in "Mr. Britling" Wells showed the astounding effect of the Great War on the normal civilian life of England, so in "The Soul of a Bishop" he shows its effect on that bulwark of society, the Church.

The Bishop, brought up in reverence for the forms of religion, is overwhelmed by the terrific questions that the war hurls upon him, questions which these forms cannot help him answer.

Wells' solution is revolutionary.
Yet his book is deeply religious.
And he puts his thesis to you, as

in "Mr. Britling," through a moving story of real human beings.

"The Soul of a Bishop" will create intense discussion everywhere. No thinking person, in or out of the church, can afford to miss this dramatic study of man's most elaborate institution flung up against the grim realities of a world crisis.

Social Diagnosis

By

Mary E. Richmond

Canadians, engaged in ministering to the families of men at the front and in helping disabled soldiers to start life anew, telegraphed for the advance sheets of this book. Leaders in civilian relief work in the United States are finding it useful.

This product of Miss Richmond's varied experience in charity organization work and six years of study and research discusses the technique of social work with families, the art of helping people out of trouble. It will be valuable to doctors, lawyers, employment managers, clergymen, social workers, and all who must make decisions affecting the welfare of individuals.
