He says he knew he would run into the same difficulty which a Northern lady encountered when she asked her Negro cook how she made a certain dish. Bessie smiled affably. "‘Deed I don‘t know, Ma‘am," she said. "Sometimes when I makes it again I‘m gonna watch how 1 does it. Then I‘ll tell yo‘, Ma‘am." But she never did. + "The Mangrove Coast," by the United Press newspaperman, Karl Bickel, tells the romantic story of Florida‘s West Coast from the days of Ponce de Leon. Mr. Bickel found that the backwoods people who live there now have a Buddhistic attitude toward life. In the end they know everything will turn out all right; for the present there is no rushing. Understanding this, Mr. 2iclrel forel‘).ore to interrogate them too closely on their habits and thoughts. s ces Ke Ks o oi e ie avl & Wl C J P One of the most entertaining books of this month or any month, is "The World at My Finger Tips." It‘s the autobiography of a man who is almost totally blind, and if you think blind people don‘t get any fun out of life you should read this book. Here‘s a typical anecdote. It has to do with Morris Frank, the first sightless person to have a Seeing Dog in America. Mr. Frank once spoke to a man hurrying along a bmy New York street. "Say, can you tell me where the Amaigamated Bank is?" "Yeah. It‘s right in front of you," the man growledâ€"as he sailed by. "What‘s the matter? ‘Are you blind?" Mr. Frank was still in a quandgry when a woman stepped up to him and said : "Can you tell me where] 1 can find the Amaigamated Bank?" "Yeah," he said. "It‘s right in front of you. What‘s the matter? Are you blind ?" In the current issue of the Bookâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"Month Club News, the noted critic Henry Seidel Canby has this to say about "The Just and The Unjust" : "The author‘s complete knowledge of his peopleâ€"and his method of taking the reader behind scenesâ€"behind all the scenesâ€"makes this book one of the most interesting studies of how fine minds, and dull minds, and criminal minds, and just average minds, react to the sudden explosion of crime in our midst, and the problem of what justice is anyhowâ€"that I have ever read." James Gould Cozzens was born in Chicago, but his ‘family left there to go to Connecticut when he was still too young to remember anything about it. Because of that, and because his father and mother both came from Rhode Island, he considers he has a right to call himself a New Englander. He wrote and published his first nove} when he was a freshman at Harvard. He says now that it wasn‘t a very good novelâ€"and he‘d rather forget about it. Since then he‘s had two other novels selected by the Bookâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"Month Clubâ€""S. S. San Pedro," in 1931, and "The Last Adani," in 1932. "S. S. San Pedro" was based on the great Vestris disaster; "The Last Adam" told about a country doctor. To gather material for his book, the author spent some two years in small town court sessions. He doesn‘t say what town it was, but it really doesn‘t matter because Childerstown, of which he writes; is so typically Amâ€" erican that it might be in almost any of our fortyâ€"eight states. This is what happens in James Gold Cozzens‘ new novel, "The Just and The Unjust," which the Bookâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"Month Club has made its August selecâ€" tion. Life in a small town court of justice may be pretty dull most of the time. But when there is a sensational murder trial up, the picture changes quickly. Overnight the small town become spotlighted in the national imagination. And during the time of the trial, the lives of all the people in the town are afâ€" {ected by what is going on in the courtroom. 1315 South St. Johns Avenue, rules the ranch at his house.
