IURA e Current and Con fidential 13y Elsie Carruthers Lunney A GREAT PICTURE We had the pleasure last week af seeing again that clas- sic of the screen, Gone With The Wind. This picture almost çleserves ail the extravagant adjectives which Hollywood is wont to apply ta so many of its productions. It is beyond daubt one of the best pictures ever mnade, good casting, wonderful acting and photography al contributing ta make its view- ing an unforgettable experi- ence. Margaret Mitchell's story is Its lieblood, however, for in order to have a great picture, one must first have a great stary. Many tonies have been written about the Civil War in the United States, and still the books on this theme pour from the presses. We are in no posi- tion ta judge this the be.qt, hav- en read few of them. But that Margaret Mitchell's book has everythifig 'essential for an ab- sorbing story is beyond dis- pute. That it is aiso xvell writ- ten la known toalal those who have read the book. We re- mnember when it first came out, sitting up every night until the small hours until we had fin- Jshed it. At seems a tragedy that Miss Mitchell died (we believe in an accident in her native Atlanta) before writing another book. And yet, it would have been almost impossible for her ta have equalled her first suc- cess. Not that that makes her death any less tragic. but as far as the novel goes her name will ]ive an, ber reputation resting securely on this one great novel of the Civil War. The picture has been revived, and there is no picture more worthy of this second lufe. We sat enthralled for three and a hali hours, absolutely unaware of the passage of time. For Vi- v~ien Leigh and Clarke Gable we venture ta say this was the best' acting of their careers. The supporting cast is superb. If yau didn't see this picture the first ime, do try to see it CHRISTMAS ~NEW YEAR'S FAST, CON VENIENT, DEPENDABLE S*Sendap.pcoZRii Ticket- 1 ha perfect Christmas Gif t Information end reservations front ony Cadian Pocific office, your own trovei agent or King & Yang* St., Tronto Tols EM. 6-7411 naw, and if yau did see then, see il again.

LOOKING AHEAD eil, rare are i Looking aver the reviews ai new books these daya we see at leasî four that we hope la read witbin the next iew manths, and by coincidence, lhey are ail by Canadian wri- ters. Incidentaily, ina Ibis con- noction, we note -that tbree Canadiara novels are second, third and fourth on the popu- larity list of the Toronto Pub- lic Lîbranies, and two Canadian non-fiction books are listed woll up ina that section. The second novel an the list is one we want ta read, Mazo de la Roche's latesl, 'Variable Winds at Jaîna. Aiways a mas- ter story teiler, we can depend on Miss de la Roche for good enlertainment, well tld. The next navel on aur awn list is Grace Irwin's new book, An- drew Cannington. Sho is the author of Least Of Ail Saints, you remember, and Andrew Canninglon a young minister, xvas the main character in il. Il is always rather nice ta con- tinue with one or more ai the sanie characters-wo feel that we already know them. Isabelle Hughes does the sanie thing in The Wise Broth- er. This is anothor in tbe Tel- forth senies, and reported ta be the besl yet. The background is Toronto ina tbe last century, and il cames alive for us in theso books. Then lbere's a book ai regionai history that we are iooking forward ta roading, Up And Down The Glons, by Donothy Dumbnille. This is the story o! Glenganny County, Ihe history afitis set- liers, ils buildings, and by-ways -just the sont of book we en- joy. Mrs. Dumbrilie lives at Alexandria ira Glengarry. Per- baps you will liko these books lao. We hope lbey will ail be ira aur own library before long. And ai course it's nico la awn or give books, and think bow you are helping the author thereby! A very special book whi we hope ta bave before t, long is PioneernLirns and Ta erras by E. C. Guillet. Whenv do. we'litell you about il.
