UBRARIAN ng{pi Tarklngftnâ€"Gentle Julia With the advent of warm weather, one's mental appetite must be atlmu- and one of the books tb^ibrary Jias for you is Bobtb7_Tarkington,s new novel, "Gentle Julia." This gay and Ioyous~book is simply delightful from coverto cover. It is a succession of slight incident, a presentation of Tarkington characters already not un- familiar to readers of certain of his previous books. Not that they are the aSi! same young people andr old people^ g'-g but they ^re old and young people -of- #5 the same kind. Why is it that one - â-  - H cannot-^ave^nongh-efJTarkington in li this vein? It is because of the enor- mm mous quiet enjoyment he derives from w working it and because, through acute * observation, tie has made himself a 5 master iir telling the humorous family -W anecdote. The point about "Gentle i l| Jttlia" is that Florence AtwateT is, in r^ tbis delicious £2^ story^Fiorencje Atwa^orV-^^thirteen, f^f feoteg on *â„¢tri*nns> Her^fritntJulia III Jsienarmlng enough, definitely enough mm portrayed, but it is Florence's hferoic iti and unrequited passion for Noble i&l>ill, one of her aunt'r'admirers_ that : ISl convulses ahoT entrances the reader. ft^Wllsolâ€"Merton of the Movies. £»::: Another book that will delight yon if Is Harry treoji Wilson's"Morton of til the.
