Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s H. M. Pul-
ham, Esquire, currently showing
throughout the country, is only one
of several books-of-the-month to be
reincarnated on the silver screen.
Among others to be preduced are
Mrs. Miniver, The Keys of the King
dom, Captain Horatio Horblower, Mr.
Kkeffington, and For Whom The
Bell Tolls. . . . With the selection of
Dragon Seed, Pearl Buck has set
something of a record among authors.
Dragon Seed, available in Ecusta’s
book corner, will be Miss Buck’s sixth
book to be distributed by the Book-
of-the-month club, others being The
Good Earth, House of Earth, The
Patriot, Fighting Angel and The Ex
ile. . . . Gus Tucker says of Hans
Habe’s, “A Thousand Shall Fall”,
“This is the story of the fall of
France as experienced by an expat
riated German writer in the French
Army. With him we see the war, the
rout of the French, a Nazi prison camp
and final escape to America. He tells
of incompetence and treachery in
French officials, of a frustrated army
and of simple faith and courage in
the peasants. His is a book written
by a man who has fought for and
who loves freedom and democracy.
. . . Mysteries still rank high in our
circulation files. Nina Poss of Fin
ishing says Rinehart’s “Circular
Staircase” is a good bit of light read
ing, an interesting combination of
mystery and romance. ... To date
356 books have been accessioned and
placed on Ecusta book shelves. Re
cently an order was placed for about
100 new books representing wide
and varied tastes and interests. Many
of the books ordered were selections
requested by employees which seems
to indicate a growing interest in our
library venture. New shelving goes
up this week which should take care
of book housing for at least another
two months. We are trying to arrange
a convenient system for our maga
zine displays for did you know that
Ecusta subscribes to about 40 rec
reational magazines and almost 100
technical and business publications?
Many of these are on our circulation
list and can be checked out from one
to seven days. Visit us soon, won’t
you?

A NEW DAY
In a beautiful land across the sea.
The Japs are fighting you and me,
They are taking the lives of both rich
and poor
On that small place called Singa
pore.
You Japs may take it but you’ll never
reign.
For more men like MacArthur
Uncle Sam will train.
You act very brave with your tommy
guns,
With Hitler as leader and his bloody
Huns,
But remember what Hitler did to the
Chechs.
He ate off their tables, then wrung
their necks.
If you think we’re not ready keep
firing your shots,
We’ll take you one day and tie you
in knots.
We’ll send enough bombers to pave
our way.
To a new way of life and a new
dawn of day.
