Geography of Palestine, by Family Filmstrips) than I ever thought possible. Those maps-I can see them now. Nicely organized for comprehension, too." That from Hugh A. Wilson, outstanding organist and choirmaster, authority on Bach's music, and concert artist on the harpsicord— and totally ignorant of the fine points of filmstrips. Or, is he? Pretty perceptive critic, I'd say! "Why didn't they give us more of the Messiah music? That's what I wanted. But then I realized that their aim was to tell the story of the writing of the oratorio, and not to present a concert." Name unknown, but sharp critic who saw filmstrip at assembly period of an institute on classroom skills for church school teachers. Let me add; fine job, good art, story accents just right, musical illustrations just long enough; just the filmstiip (20 minutes) for church school, choir schools, all kinds of groups in the church, school and community. Fine piece of work, SVE; who is next? Price $12.50. "I knew about most of those factors but I never put them together that way before or saw thier significance for the present outreach of the church. Just what we need to wake us up." Thus spoke a member of the audience after seeing the Methodist-produced color filmstrip Factors that Confront Us. They not only confront us; they just about stop us in our tracks. Which is good, of course, if we will start thinking about our world as it really is in terms of these seven new factors. Written and produced by William Fore. Highly recommended. Write to AV Department, Board of Missions of Methodist Church, 475 Riverside Drive, N.Y. 27. Of use to any and all denominations. Listen To The Presbyterians If you would know them, listen to them talk! Well, you can hsten to the United Presbyterians as they talked, objected, recommended, resolved, etc., at one of their General Assemblies (Buffalo, 1961). This is Side I of an LP record available from Division of Radio and T\', United Presbyterian Church, 475 Riverside Drive, N.Y. 27. On Side II you will get the fine music of the Lafayette College Choir as it sings seven religious selections under the direction of Dr. John Raymond. Side I is a perceptive job of se lecting and editing and, taken as a whole, this record is good resource material. Exact price unknown, but reasonable. What Is A Meal? Can you eat for 3 cents per meal? Why not? Many people would be glad to do it. Ask the Meals-For-Millions organization if it's not so. The 20-minute color filmstrip, Cable of Love, tells the story of the high-concentrated multi-purpose food developed by MFM, 215 West 7th St., Los Angeles 14, Calif. We get the whole story— from idea to a world-wide use of these 3 cent meals which are now helping hold the line against malnutrition and hunger in many parts of the world. Interesting, challenging, and just the thing for church, college, club, and community group. Non-denominational, free to interested groups, and there should be many. Comments and materials for review should be sent to the department editor—William S. Hockman, 27 Prospect Drive, Glens Falls, N.Y. Help your students avoid a bitter disappointment . . .
