FINAL HARVEST: Emily
Dickinson's Poems, Selection and
Introduction Jay Thomas H. John
son (Little, Brown $4.95). This is
a welcome volume. A book of
poetry should never be too heavy
in the hand, and the complete
Emily Dickinson collection, while
essential for libraries and stu
dents, is not one to carry about
and read at need or on impulse.
Here we have about one third
ci the poems in a light volume, a
thoughtful and wise selection by
Thomas H. Johnson, editor of the
complete collection, the variorum
edition and author of ‘’Emily
Dickinson; an interpretative biog
raphy.” He has made a good
choice—at least,'the book includes
my favorites, and an index of first
lines make it easy to find them.
There are those swift, sharp ob
servations of bird and bee and
flower that show them as they
are and also in significant com
parison to ourselves:
“The Pedigree of Honey
Does not concern the Bee—
A Clover, any time to him,
Is Aristocracy.”
In this case, the editor has in
cluded an earlier and longer ver
sion of the same poem, and we
see how the craftsman in the poet
whittled this down to the sharp
perfection that makes an unfor
gettable impact on the mind.
In a short but valuable intro
duction, Johnson discusses the
poet’s methods of work and her
continual effort to attain the ut
most concentration. But, as he
says, it was not this that made
her great; it was her intense
vision of the predicament of man,
faced with immensities he cannot
fathom, understanding not the
wherefore of his own catastro
phes, yet asserting a certain mys
tic triumph over these as she did
over her own tragedy, when she
cried, “Mine—by the right of the
White Election!” Yet even in
Man’s will to make his own as
sessment of the universe and its
management, she recognizes just
one more manifestation of the Di
vine. In a poem that begins with
stating that “The Brain is wider
than the Sky,” because it can con
tain the sky and more beside, she
comes to this characteristic co^-
$4.50). This novel is chiefly no
table for its intimate picture of
life on one small island of the
Hebrides. Allan McLean—himself
born on the Isle of Skye—writes
of thesd^ rugged people with un
derstanding, writes of their
strengths and weaknesses, their
joys and griefs. To him both the
place and the people have a rare
quality. “When I was little,” he
says, “I used to believe that Gae
lic was spoken in the Garden of
Eden.”
Here we see a typical island
community through the eyes of
Niall, a boy of twenty, one of
the few who has chosen not to
go away to the city but to stay on
his little croft, raising a few cat
tle and sheep, who is deeply at
tached to the land and the people
and distrusts urban life and what
it does to men. There is humor
here, too, sometimes very crude
humor when the men are at their
drink. There is trouble with the
police; for the township is known
for its salmon poaching. Through
it all runs the unchanging loyalty
and kindliness these people have
for each other.
As Niall matures and his judg
ment becomes more discrimina
ting, he loses some illusions, but
his essential commitment to the
way of life on the island remains
unshaken.

Two Ski Resorts
Now Operating
Western North Carolina has two
new all-winter ski resorts. Popu
larity of the resorts has already
proven that there are hundreds
of beginners anxious to learn to
ski as well as the more proficient
who take to the graceful sport
with ability and experience.
Mile high Cataloochee, long
famous as a summer resort is
located 40 miles west of Asheville
in the Great Smoky Mountains.
Blowing Rock Ski Lodge is locat
ed between Boone and Blowing
Rock approximately 60 miles
north of Asheville.

THE SCARLET BOY by Ai-
Ihus Calder-Marshall (Harper
$3.95) Extra sensory perception
forms the background of this un
usual ghost story, that and a firm
belief in the powers of good and
evil. So carefully has the author
constructed his plot and so subt
ly does he lead up to the appear
ance of the ghost that few readers
will be able to resist him.
The story is told by George
Grantley, a quiet, middle-aged
bachelor, living alone in an Eng
lish village and writing scholarly
books. He gets an urgent request
from his friend. Sir Christopher
Everness, to find an old house for
him in the village. George picks
Anglesey House, where he had
played as a child witlj the Scarlet
boy and been permanently en
tranced by the Scarlet boys’ moth
er. Being a retiring man, George
had never heard that the house
was haunted, though it was com
mon talk in the village.
But that is only the beginning
of what George learns about the
Scarlet family and about himself,
as negotiations for the purchase
of the house progress. Sir Chris
topher, a thorough sceptic, insists
on buying the house despite its
reputation. This leads to a crisis

"WE LIKE TO THINK ..."
During recent years several new industries have come
to Southern Pines and, by the looks of things, more are
on the way. This means more jobs for local folks, more
funds circulating in local pockets, more good citizens
coming here to live . . .
During the past year a dozen or more drives have been
held here for funds in support of better health, better
education, to alleviate human need ...
During the past year more people have come here to
live, attracted by what they hear or have read of the
climate, the sports, the pleasant living, the charm of a
friendly, attractive community . . .
News of all this appears regularly in the columns of
this newspaper and we like to think that The Pilot lends
a hand in such good causes.

IN HIGH PLACES by Arthur
Hailey (Doubleday $4.95). “How
long can the United States and
Canada retain their separateness
in fa-ce of’ the imminent perils
which threaten the survival of
both?” is the challenging theme
of this novel by a young English
man who emigrated to Canada
after World War II. Working first
on a trade magazine and later as
a sales promotion manager, Hailey
tried his hand on a television
play in 1956 and promptly swam
to success in that field. In 1959 he
wrote a successful novel, “’The
Final Diagnosis.”
Power politics and love make
this a highly dramatic book
There are terrific scenes at the
White House, Buckingham Palace
and on Ottawa’s Parliament Hill.
But everything important does
not happen in these exalted
places. Mr. Hailey believes that
“throughout history, great events
have been trigger^ by incidents
of apparent insignificance, in
volving humble people.” This
book is written with such verve
that it should be very popular.

day just as on any other Some
find Sunday a burden, others find
it a proble.m. Yei it o u'ht to be
a golden day, ■ T/-'’ ' ’’ >1’ tht
week the best.”
Day Oi res;
The Fourth Comma,.uoiooi, says
two things clearly. One: B.v God’.s
intention, one day in seven is a
“holy” day. Two- It is to be a
day of rest. The Chri.stian church,
after long argument, finally came
to observe the first, not the sev
enth day, and we give it a new
name, the Lord’s Day, in memory
of the resurrection of our Lord.
(Though it is still called the Sab
bath by many Christians.) The
day chosen is less important than
how the day is used. We believe—
“we” meaning the great major
ity of Christians today—that the
Fourth Commandment has not
been set aside. We would say that
the Fourth Commandment gives
us a guide to how we may best
use the Lord’s Day; and we would
als9 say that the attitude of Jesus
to the Sabbath gives us further
clues to the right attitude to the
Lord’s Day.' The first point is that
it is holy. It is a different day, a
set-apart day, for that is what
“holy” originally meant. It is
God’s day, because that also is
what “holy” meant. Further, it
is a day of rest. Machines need
rest, plants and animals need it,
and human beings most of all.
Day of worship
Now our Lord’s use of the Sab
bath gives us the Christian line.
He knew the Fourth Command
ment; but he did not suppose that
‘‘rest” meant doing literally noth
ing. Certainly his Sabbaths were
extremely busy; you might say
He worked overtime on that day.
For one thing it was then as now
the day set apart for worship. It
was His custom to attend the
synagogue on the Sabbath day.
He could have preached better
sermons than he heard there, but
He went all the same. Christians
do not always appreciate enough
what it means to be able to wor
ship in freedom and peace. We
are throwing away one of God’s
best gifts when we let a Lord’s
Day drift by without joining other
Christians at worship, if we are
able to go at all. The first thing
communists do when they take
over a country, such as China or
East Germany, is to make it im
possible for Christians there, or
extremely difficult, to worship in
church. If you can get a whole
generation growing up without
leisure for religion, you have
driven religion imderground, and
it will take a long time to return.
So the Lord’s Day is a prime
target of communism.
Day for doing good
The Pharisees of Jesus’ time
were very strict about the Sab
bath Day. Jesus set as n!uch
store by it as they, but in a dif
ferent way. Their big question
was: What is WRONG to do on
the Sabbath? Jesus’ question was:
What is RIGHT to do? When Jesus
saw any one in need of help that
He could give, He never looked
at the calendar first to make sure
what day it was. It is lawful to
do good on the Sabbath, He said.
Don’t most of us have in the back
of our minds some one thing, at
least, some kind and helpful act,
which we could do if we only had
time? Well, the Lord’s Day is the
time. To edme to that blessed day,
the “Day of rest and gladness,”
wondering whether we ought to
do this or that, worrying al^ut
what we are supposed to do or
not to do, is frustrating. But to
come to the day with the question:
What good can I be, what good can
I do to others, on this day when
the pressure is off? is the first
step to a happy day. This day was
made for man, as Jesus said. For
his body, his mind, his soul. What
ever makes ourselves, and others
nearest us, better persons, is sure
ly a right thing to do on the day
named for one who “went about
doing good.”
