Jeritza When Maria Jeritza made her American debut at the Metropolitan Opera House in 1921, she was accorded a!l ovation such as few singers have rece1ved. She has sung in New York each season since, with growing popularity. .In "Sunlight and Song" abe has wntten of her career so delightfully that it makes some of the present day fiction seem dull by comparison. Like Stephen McKenna. she writes her reminiscences while she is young, and the interesting things that have happened to her are still fresh in her mind. Jeritza modestly says that .she is a singer, not a writer, but those who read her book witt think that she is a writer as well as a singer 1 so vivid and charming is her style.

It is a charming, aerial, fascinating book." And Edward Shanks writes for the London Mercury, "Mr. Maurois has here created something like a new pure. He uses the method of the novel in order to give added flexibility to ascertained facts. He has produced perhaps the best portrait of Shelley in existence." Callahans and the Murphys .... Norris A new book by Kathleen Norris is always welcomed by her hosts of admirers and one ventures the opinion that this story of the family life of two lovable Irish-American families will prove as popular as any that she has written. It is a narrative true to life, full of kindly humor, and one that makes us think better of human ·ture.
