In this often tragic account, p'laine Barrymore gives a self-revealing and candid account of what lay behind these apparently grotesque events. "All My Sins Remembered" is the story of two touching, frightened people. John Barrymore was driven by alcohol, fear of insanity, and an almost psychopathic jealousy; Elaine had been formed by a dull, workaday background, a stagestruck childhood, and an idolatrous admiration for the First Family of the American theater. What saved them, when they were saved, was a precariously balanced but completely whole love for each other. What drove them were the moments when their own Pablle M©$iee© & HOLIDAY PARTY PAKS 12 pes. Broasted Chicken French Fries, Slaw $3.50 20 pes.

"A Moveable Feast** by Ernest Hemingway Ernest Hemingway left, the world a generous legacy in these sketches of his early life in Paris in the 'twenties. So complete is the spell of his art that the four decades between what was done and felt then and what was remembered and written later seem barely to have intervened. Everything is perceived directly through the eyes and ears of the young writer himself, living in the pre-dawn of world recognition. The reader walks with him along the Paris streets, watching fishermen along the Seine or dropping by at Sylvia Beach's to borrow a book; returns with him (sometimes frugally skipping a meal) to the Hemingways' small apartment on the rue Notre-Damedes- Champs with the sawmill in the courtyard below; sits by him in a cafe while paragraph by paragraph, scarcely looking up, he constructs one of the stories that created a new voice for the literature of our time. It was a time of hunger and discipline and also one of fulfilment and happiness. We share taut days at the racetrack at Engbien and happy, strenuous weeks skiing in the Vorarlberg in Austria. These chapters glow with the joy of recollection. There are many vivid portraits from memory: Gertrude Stein providing little glasses of liqueurs and impromtu lectures in her apartment on the rue de Fleurus; Ezra Pound learning to box; Ford Madox Ford discoursing on the mysteries of being a gentleman; and a number of other§, all profoundly expressive. One of the more important is the portrayal of Scott Fitzgerald, an amusingly truthful one, softened by affection for the man and respect for nis genius. The motor trip he and Hemingway make from Lyon to Paris will surely take its place as one of the great comic journeys of literature. One can only suggest the experiences awaiting the reader of this book in which a master of literature in full command of every technique of his art relives these bright chapters of his youth. ADULT FICTION "The Blind Heart" by Storm Jameson. At the age of sixty, Aristide TMfch&I 'Is exuberantly happy. From a Greek childhood scarred by poverty he has risen to be proprietor and master chef of a superb small restaurant in the south of France. Although he has never married the woman he calls his wife, nor adopted the orphan he calls his son, Aristide regards them both with a love approaching adoration. It is for them, more than for himself, that he withdraws his life's savings from the bank to buy the building that houses his retaurant. For his wife it will provide security; for his son, now a remarkably handsome young man, it will provide a future. Thus Storm Jameson sets the stage for a wry comedy in which a good man, a vain woman, and a young rogue play out a telling commentary on life's absurd pitfalls. A reckless whim and an act of charity set off a chain reaction and overnight Astride is stripped, shamed, humiliated. Everything he has counted on for the years ahead is gone-- everything but a stubborn acceptance of life with all its frailities. How he manages to summon a kind of triumph out of his hurt and anger and de- RING . RING Hello, One Hour Mctrtinizing Dry Cleaners Calling ...

"Orphans of the Sky" by Robert A. Heinlein is the story of a civilization evolving in a huge spaceship lost between the stars, whose inhabitants have long since forgotten, except as a myth, the existence of the rest of the universe. A giant cylinder, five miles long, two thousand feet thick is spinning slowly on its axis and drifting timelessly through the interstellar deep. Within its smooth and portless skin the concentric decks are piled miles of passageway, acres of living room, workshops, hydroponic farms, assembly halls, storerooms and offices. The air is warm and moist and fresh, the corridors are lighted, the farms are green. People live here -- Earth humans, to whom Earth is a forgotten place, no more than superstition or a talent of religious faith. Mutiny and assination, generations ago, destroyed the men who knew how to navigate and run the engines. Their whole world is the Ship, and the inside of the Ship, a little universe complete in itself. And then one man from the center Ship, Hugh Hoyland, learns the truth . . . "Orphans of the Sky" is a marvelous piece of storytelling, packed full of exciting action. It is suspenseful, inventive and enormously readable--In short, "America's acknowledged master of science fiction" at His best. "Paris In the Terror^ June 1793-July 1794 by Stanley Loomis "Paris In the Terror" tells the story of the reign of terror in terms of the chief performers in that particularly bloody phase of the French Revolution: Marat -- Charlotte Corday -- Danton -- Mme. Roland -- Robespierre -- Camille Desmoulin -- Fouche. Their very names recall the tumbrels, the "batches" of condemned prisoners, the guillotine, yet their lives and their roles in the Revolution are not generally familiar. They are, all of them, powerful personalities, and Stanley Loomis's intimate study of them and their contributions to the Terror is of utmost fascination. The handsome and aristocratic young woman from Normandy, Marie-Charlotte de Corday, was typical of the early, idealistic phase of the Revolution, and her murder of Marot, as he sat in his bath, climaxes the first section of the book. The middle part follows the careers of the ambitious, egocentric Mme. Roland and the likable Rabelaisian figure Danton, whose mistakes puts Robespierre in power and himself on the guillotine. The final section recreates the Great Terror, the four months when Robespierre, cruel, sexless, and preoccupied with "virtue," and his chief henchman, St. Just, the handsome "Angel of Death," reigned over mass butchery the like of which was not to be seen again until Stalin's Russia and Hitler's Germany. Stanley Loomio iwseps his ilSliP! eye coiristahtly on • -|be ""Ktihian characters and in© human drama; consequently, the book is intensely personal and intensely alive. As a brilliantly organized history of a complicated period, as biography, as social history (for we learn as much about the everyday life of Parisians under the Terror as about the politicians), "Paris in the Terror" is superb. "The Fanatic" by Meyer Levin is a novel about the Jewish obsession with justice. It is the story of a young American rabbi who, having witnessed the end of the war in Europe, withdraws from holding religious services until he can understand the relationship of God to the six million. It is the story of one of those six million -- a gifted young writer whose spirit cannot yet relinquish the earth. It is the story of one man's pursuit of justice in a conformist era when anyone who acts on his inner beliefs is branded a fanatic. It is the story of blindly followed ideologies subterraneously affecting our lives. It is the love story of a young girl who must find out in the American world whether it is worthwhile for her to have survived. "There May Be Heaven" by Elisabeth Ogilvie A rocky peninsula on the Maine coast provided the setting for this romantic novel of turbulent love and a still more turbulent hatred. Pretty young Claire Carnitine has come to Maine to recover from the ordeal ot ntr husband's death. When she meets Finn, youngest of the four Judson brothers, ihe thinks hifn only a likeable young man at first. He is good-natured, If a bit irresponsible, and no thought of romance occurs to either of them. As the summer wears on, Finn's friendship with Claire inspires him to a serious reappraisial of his life and future, and he begins to formulate aftihitious plans. Finn's the handsomest of the Judson boys. Is also his mother's favorite, and the thoueht of his possible success evokes bitter jealousy in his older brothers. At the same time, Claire is oppressed by her dead husband's mother, who cannot emeree from her own grief and will not allow Claire the right to live again. Almost against their wills, and i in the face of constant obstacles. Finn and Clair fall in love. 'There May Be Heaven" is the story of their romance-- of Claire's struggle to free herself and to love again, and of Finn's emergence from the shadow of his brothers into manhood. Set against the skillfully evoked Maine background that has become "Elisabeth Ogilvie country" to many thousands of readers, it is a moving novel, filled with action, excitement, malice and compassion. As in every novel by Miss Ogilvie, the sights and sounds of Maine's wooded coasts and villages are recreated by a sensitive and gifted storyteller. The many fans who have delighted in her particular blend of love and intrigue, coupled with extraordinary characterization of Villagers, will welcome this tale of human nature at its worst, and at its best. Vance Packard * In what may well U most arresting book, Vance Packard examines the rapidly disappearing right of individual privacy under the onslaught of Orwell's Big Brother philosophy that is pervading Big Government, Big Business, Big Education, and society in „ general. Unknown to most of Us, an army of investigators is probing into our bank accounts, checking our private lives, even bugging our bedrooms, offices and automobiles. Mr. Packard takes us with terrifying detail through the twilight world of the snooper, be he insurance investigator or personnel check for a prospective employer. He has had the benefit of the experiences and know-how of a great many highly knowledgeable investigative experts, including, among others, Guenther Reinhardt. He unveils the ramifications of the secret traffic in private information between investigative agencies, both governmental and private. There are fascinating sections on what employers are doing and how our children are being subjected in school to alleged personality testing that probes into the most intimate aspects of their parental and sexual attitudes and relationships, the resultb if which are held secret from the parents.
