CHILDREN MAY MEET CHRIST AS A BOY V Louis Tucker Discovers That the Holy Child Lived the Life of a Real Youngster in a New Book, Mn the Hills of Galilee.’ BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Years ago if an author had attempted to humanize Christ both as a boy and as a man, he probably would have been ridden out of the country on a rail. Today with our Bartons and our Tuckers, Christ is so pictured that he lived a life of divine realism in his day.

Those were my thoughts as I read “In the Hills of Galilee,” just published by Bobbs-Merrill Company of this city. Here we find that “the Lord Christ lived in the slums of Alexandria, a little Jewish boy called Jesus Bax David, known as the son of a Jewish ship-carpenter.” Again the human picture—“He saw the great lighthouse at the harbor mouth, that showed ships the way home. He knew the narrow streets and crowded tenements of the Jewish quarter. Now and then, for a great, his mother took him to the gardens of the great library, or the museums, where he had room to run and good green grass to play on.” This humanizing of the Little Master in no way, to my honest way of thinking, ruins any picture of Christ. As far as I am concerned, l do not rebel in literature of finding Christ living a divine human existence in his day. I know that these collection of stories of the time of Christ were primarily written for children, out I admit that an adult will find new human beauty in reading this book. “In the Hills of Galilee” throws a new light upon the early life of the Christ, and it is done in the language of the hour, pure, good English. • Here is a book that should find its place on the library table of the home. Children will relish an opportunity to read of Christ as a boy and then later on a world preacher, divinely inspired. Regardless of one’s church connection, this book will do no harm. We have passed the stage where the Christ is only for the chosen few and books of this nature increases one’s respect for the Great Teacher. Here is a good book, beautifully and humanly written. It is for children of all ages, from the first reader to over a hundred. Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Broadway” at English’s;' “Smiles and Tears” at the Colonial; the Younger Foys at Keith’s; Gilbert and Avery at the Lyric; “The Thirteenth Hour” at the Apollo; “She’s a Sheik” at the Ohio; “The Drop Kick” at the Circle; “The American Beauty” at the Indiana; burlesque at the Mutual and movies at the Isis.
