If you are jaded from fetching
overweight books from the library,
we bring glad tidings. The Viking
Pres^ has put out an edition of
I’ortnbles. In turn, Harrison Smith
gave thirty-five of these volumes
to the library when he was here as
a speaker on the Symposium. And
now you can skip across Church
Street holding the best of almost
anybody from Dorothy Parker to
Blake between your thumb and
forefinger. Being catalogued now
are selections from the complete
works of writers as varied as Mark
Twain, Oscar Wilde, Joyce, Emer
son, and Shakespeare. There are
other collections designed along dif
ferent lines, such as the Murder
Book, the Irish Reader, and Nov
els (if Science. We even have the
World Bible in condensed form, with
excerpts from Mohammed, Confuc
ius, the Apostles, and the like.
Strong of arm, we’ve always been
lucky enough to live near the li
brary, and these lightweight books
may find more enthusiastic admir
ers elsewhere'. If the Viking Press
is bent on gathering its rosebuds
before people once again want
permanence rather than portability,
it’s none of our business. The ques
tion of anthologies is many-sided
and one we fear to bring up. But
there are so many things that bear
transplanting gracefully — lyric
poetry, short stories, an^l essays
that we wonder why these editors
ever bothered to pick individual
scenes from Shakespeare or chap
ters from F. Scott Fitzgerald. None
theless, we hope that people who
read the books will think that the
publishers chose well. It would be
criminal to let books obviously de
signed for air-travel lie mouldering
on the shelves.
With their flair for critical weed-
ing-out and a commendable desire
to popularize the classics, maybe
the Viking people would be enjoined
to take their project one step fur
ther. They could even achieve an
anthology of anthologies to go with
the model room that Life featured
a month or two ago. It was de
signed to promote civilized liv
ing in the smallest possible space,
and the fireplace revolved to dis
close a bar. As we remember, an
ironing board was concealed some
where under the bar or as part of
the radio-kitchen. We see no reason
why an iron could not be devised
in which, when not in use, a small
volume could be fitted. By dint of
careful choosing it could contain
the wisdom and humor of all civili
zations since the Phoenicians, and
in the smallest possible space.

For A Place
In The Sun
‘ Our white-haired friend was not
the only one who paced the floor
of the spacious mansion. 'There
passed by him, at five minute in
tervals, a fine figure of a man, tall
and graceful, with a distinguished
appearance, resembling a “Men of
Distinction” ad.
“See here, Cecil!” the tall gentle
man suddenly shouted, pointing a
fivc-jointed finger. “If you fail
mo THIS time, it will be your last
failure!”
Cecil, trembling under a dust
laden table, bit furiously into the
table leg and spat it out apologet
ically.
“I’m terribly sorry, Aloysius,”
answered Cecil, “bu|!. I’m 'trying
So hard!” and he crawled from
under the table, rolled his eyes back
in his head and did a Highland
Fling to the tune of “I’ll Be Glad
When You’re Dead, You Rascal,
You!”
“This damp, soggy old dump
gives mo the creeps!” Aloysius said,
smiling. “Can’t see what Ephi
ever saw in it. Just because Ru
dolph Valentino happened to make
a personal appearance here in town
once, and just because he happened
to ride down this sti’eet once and
glance over at her house while
swatting a fly from off his nose,
she never would consent to sell it
until she died and then it was too
late. Oh, that movie-mad female!”
Cecil nodded his assent from the
mantel where he had inconspicuously
crawled during Aloysius’ soliloquy.
“Here! Have a cigar!” offered
Aloysius and, as Cecil lit it, it
promptly blew up in his face.
“Oh, thank you!” returned Ce
cil and, jumping off the mantel, he
licked the rug where the disting
uished gent had previously been
standing.
“You know, it’s a funny thing
. . . ” began Cecil when, in a fit
of fury, Aloysius opened his coat
pocket and let free his pet Mexi
can rat terrier. The vicious ani
mal began barking hungrily at
Cecil, who was hanging head-down
from the chandelier, barking back.
Suddenly a great flash of green
light zig-zagged across the room . . .

I, by Betsy Boney
Seniors this season can talk of
nothing but trousseaux and wed
dings. Miss Henny has bought some
lovely dresses and suits. Girls, if you
truly want to turn green with e^vy,
just visit the suite of Mrs. Bill Mc
Kenzie and Mrs. .lohn Morrow, that
is if you can wade through the shoe
boxes, hat boxes, dress boxes, etc.
No matter whether you prefer the
tailored or feminine, you will be
bowled over by the elaborate display
of fashions in th^ir tronisseaux.
Bunny Bunn and Sally Boswell have
both selected their wedding dresses,
but they just ain’t telling. Fran
Reeves, our little red headed bride-
to- be, has purchased a pair of white
satin sandals with gold kid plat
forms for tripping down the aisle.
The man said they couldn’t be worn
for a wedding, but our little Fran
just blinked her eyes and said “We
’ll see.”
Girls, for years now we have all
thought of scarfs as a covering for
our heads in the rain, or something
to wrap around our necks to keep
out the cold. This year the common
scarf has taken on a new person
ality. It has many possibilities for
adding space to an otherwise dull
or uninteresting outfit. Take for
instance, the gay and colorfol silk
printed squares available now in full
sizes and prices. One scarf, can take
on a life of its own. A simple black
dress can be pepped up by a scarf
draped softly over one hip and
caught up at the waist, or flung
casually over the shoulder and
caught at the neck with a gold clip.
Scarves can be used in a pinch for
a blouse, too. They can be tied
around the neck of a suit and left
flowing. Yes, the scarf has a new
possibility. Singers, Sosniks’, and
Montaldo’s have them in various
colors, and they will have one that
will fit your pocket book.
Miss Hewitt
To Be Feted
Miss Jane Hewitt, bride-elect,
will be honored tomorrow after
noon at a tea given by Miss Euth
Lewis and Miss Brona Nifong at
the Woman’s Club. Sixty guests
have been invited to call from 4:30
to 6 p. m.
In the receiving line will bo
Misses Jane Hewitt,. Ruth Lewis,
and Brona Nifong. Those serving
will be Mrs. F. M. Lewis, Mrs. T.
H. Nifong, Mrs. Gordon Goodale,
Miss Becky Nifong, Miss Betty
Lewis, and Miss Lena Mac Lewis.
Goodbyes will be said by Miss Eliz
abeth Hedgecock.
