LETTERS IN CANADA: 1954 339 For a father or a mother, one must rend all garments, in public, and with the hand; for all others, one rends only the uppermost garment, in private, and either by hand or by some instrument. For a father or a mother, one may baste up the rent after thirty days but must never resew the edges; for all others, one may baste up the rent after seven days and resew the edges aiter thirty days. One must rend one's garments on hearing evil tidings or on hearing blasphemy. The first Lithuanian book that I have seen printed in Canada is a history of Vilna from the thirteenth century down to the present, written and published in Toronto by Dr. Adolfas Sapoka. Much is made of the city's intimate association with the national life of the Lithuanian people throughout at least seven centuries. More stress might have been laid on the tragic urban schizophrenia by which, as the result of centuries under a common crown, the city was equally loved and claimed by the Pole and the Lithuanian, and probably occupied by the White Russian and Jew as much as by either. It is perhaps indicative of Dr. Sapoka's intensely Lithuanian approach that for him the chief importance of the Soviet occupation of the Baltic states in 1940 was the restoration of Vilna to Lithuania as its capital. The author 'is commendably familiar with the Nazi archives printed by the United States Department of State. CHECK-LIST OF TITLES Ankhyerejska Liturhiya j arkhyerejska vizytatsiya (Ukr.
