Books Worth Reading On The Public Library The reading public of Bo- manvilie are ta be congratulated on the very fine type of literature which the Board has recently put on the Public Library shelves, located in the Municipal Build- 1ing. Among the most recent ad- ditions are: "'Until That Day,"1 Kressman Taylor. "Van Loon's Lives," Hendrik William Van Loon. "'Until That Day": Kari Hoff- man, a young German, thirty years of age, and now a minister in Ontario, escaped from Ger- many a year ago. He told the story of his experience and im- pressions in Germany from 1930 to 1940 ta Kressman Taylor who wrote the book. The story is told. in the first persan because it is essentially a persanal story and brings us face ta face with problems which Canadians will have ta face not only for the dur- atian of the war but for the dur- ation of democracy. For obviaus reasons, fictitiaus names have been used except in the case of a few well known public charac- ters, E. G. Pastor, Martin Nie- moellier. The book gives us a good outline of the growth of Naziismn in Germany. After you have read it you will understand why we listened in vain for a word of protest from the Repub-, licans, why the voice of the Mon. archists was silent, why the uni- versities said nothing. You will sense why the church was the only institution that was bold and brave enough ta lift its voice against some of the inhumnan mavements devised by Hitler and the Gestapo. "Van Loon's Lives": If Hendrik William Van Loon is anything hie is original. An American with Dutch background, hie lays the plot of his story in a littie village on the coast of Holland. As he sat with a friend, looking out of a window, at the village hall, his friend observed that it would be mast interesting if they could in- vite the hall tower ta dinner and hear its stary of the men and mavements during its existence. Van Loon ansW'ered "'why flot in- vite the people themselves." They invite them two at a time a week apart until they have entertained about fifty of the autstanding people in histary. After intro- ductions, which are amusing, the party is on and the conversations are recorded. If it is true that the histary of mavements and progress is but the story of the lives of a few men then we have the histary of the last five hun- lred years in a nutshell in "Van Loon's Lives." "World Currents and Canada's Course" is a study in worid events and movements as they stand re- lated ta economic and social con- ditions as they obtain in Canada today. That is conditions which are contributing factors in deter- nining Canada's Foreign Policy. It cantains a number of lectures by outstanding authorities. These lctures were compiied and edit- d by Violet Anderson. If you Would forecast the inevitable fu- ture read it. WPR C.G.I.T.
