THURSDAY, APRIL 19, 1962 THE PILOT—Southern Pines, North Carolina Page THREE Some Looks At Books By LOCKIE PARKER EMBATTLED CRITIC} Views ever more startling novelties, on Modem Art by John Canady (Farrar. Straus & Cudahy $4.50). Art critic of the New York Tiines since early 1959, John Cana<tey has won a reputation for speaking out pungently and fearlessly. Hisi essays on contemporary art have started many a studio and draw ing room battle. So forthright have been his denunciations of what he considered excesses in abstract expressionism and neo- Dada that in 1960 the Times re^ ceived a letter of protest sign^ by forty-nine men well known in the art world—collectors, artists, professors of art. The Times pub lished the letter and promptly re ceived some six hundred letters 550 of which supported Can.* aday. Hence the title of the book, “Embattled Critic.” t But the book is more than an account of a battle in the art world. The author goes back to fundamentals. “The Search for Magic; Cave Art and Contempor ary Art” is a gem of an essay, putting concisely the interaction of the artist and society. When he says “the best thing an artist can ask of life is that his Work ^Inhere followed a flood of Amer- needed, wanted, demanded, he is j tourists, as restrictions wens not talking about those whose ( j work brings fancy prices in the} galleries but about the primitive feishionable fads and the kind of artists who cater to such tastes, content to achieve “cocktail suc cess that endures only as long as* it titillates.” Mr. Canaday is the brother of Dr. Vida McLeod of Southern Pines. THE VIEW FROM NO. 13 PEOPLE'S STREET by Aline Mosby (Random $3.95). The au thor was the first woman corre spondent in Moscow, joining the staff of the United Press early in 1959 and staying until late 1961. She gives here a lively account of her experiences, including shopping and housekeeping, dates and parties (she was immarried), struggles With censorship, chang ing attitudes in Moscow and some that never change. Miss Mosby arrived in Russia just before the 1959 visit of Prime Minister Macmillan, which ap- ipeared to inaugurate a new era of “peace and friendship” in re lations between Russia and the West—even censorship Was drop ped during his ten-day visit. Bookmobile Schedule men who made drawings in caves for magical and religious pim- poses deemed necessary for the tribe’s prosperity and survival. He believes the modem artist has gotten too far from his public. Quoting Klee that “art in the highest sense” deals with an "ul timate mystery that lies behind the ambiguity which the light of the intellect fails miserably to penetrate,” he challenges the ar tists of today to bring back to art this true magic. What really revolts Mr. Cana day in the contemporary scene is commercialism, the straining after Paiitiiig’s EAST mthlWBnPont LUCm WALL PAINT No stirring, no priming. Dip In and start to paint!

Southern Pines ,eased—farmers, doctors, econo mists, aeronautical experts, teach ers and politicians, including Richard Nixon; and that slimmer the American Exhibition attract ed throngs of Russians. The good will gained further momentum when Khruschev visited America and reached its peak when an American aircraft carrier found and rescued four Soviet soldiers adrift on a raft in the Pacific Ocean. It hit bottom again with the U-2 incident and the trial of Powers. Hopes rose once more with Kennedy’s inauguration. The author’s own chances to talk to Russians were greatly fa cilitated by her little white sports car, the first of its kind in Rus sia. It attracted sidewalk specta tors wherever she stopped. Her own friendliness and curiosity were also an asset. But there were difficulties, too. She found that some people avoided being seen with her and others enjoyed informal parties at her apartment but did not want it to be known that they had been there. The total effect was of a land where suspicion of foreigners was relaxing but not yet gone. She herself thoroughly enjoyed her experiences, felt she made real friends in Moscow, and describes her assignment as “more glamor ous” than the previous one in Hollywood. She shares this en- ithusiasm with her readers. THE LILIES OF THE FIELD by William E. Barielt (Double day $2.50). This is an appealing blend of humor and sentiment. Homer Smith of South Carolina was let out of the Army in Seat tle. He was a big easy-going Ne gro with a lively curiosity about places and people. He planned to drive through Uie West, stop ping here and there, taking a job i when he needed money, stopping "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 commvmity . . .

WILLIAM C, STRICK LAND, professor at Southes- tem Baptist Theological Se minary, is guest minister at the First Baptist Church, for services this week and continuing through the morning service on Easter Sunday. Dr. Strickland is conducting a week’s intensive Bible study with sessions each morning at 9. Each evening at 7:30 he is bringing Gospel messages. At each evening service there is Gospel singing led by the pastor, the Rev. Maynard Mangum, and the chancel choir. Special music is featured each night and all nvusic is accompanied by Mrs. Thomas E. (Peggy) Moore at the con sole of the church’s newly- improved Hammond organ. when he felt like it. But early in his wandering he was captured by Mother Maria Martiie. When Homer saw her do ing a man’s work in the fields, he thought he might as well add a few dollars to his reserve and asked her for a job. He had no way of knowing that Mother Maria Marthe had prayed for someone to help her and the four nuns build a chapel. In spite of everything Homer could say, she. knew he had been sent to heh l and she was determined to use him. 'The history of their rela tionship and what they accom plished between them is a warm and enjoyable story. THE PRESIDENCY by Gerald W. Johnson (Morrow $2.95). What are the duties and powers of the President of the United States and how have these changed since the wiriting of the Constitu tion? 'This clear and interesting explanation by a distinguished newspaper man and historian was intended for youngsters of ten to fourteen, but this adult read er, for one, found it very illumi nating on a complicated subjiect. Tb.e book will be followed by oth ers on the legislative and judi cial branches of the government. Mr. Johnson makes no bones about the fact that the President has become a great deal more powerful than the makers of the constitution intended. George Washington, who presided over rthe constitutional convention. Was the first to extend the Presi dent’s power. After one attempt to draft a treaty “With the advice, and consent of the .Senate,” his patience gave out. He drew u|p the treaty and sent it to them to ac cept or reject. As an executive he had to get things done. The powers of the presidency have been further extended un der every strong President from Jefferson to Franklin D. Roose velt. The author gives further in stances of how and why it hap pened and gives his own views of why this has never led to a dic tatorship despite cries of alarm every time it happened. Gerald Johnson is well known to many people in this commu nity. Though he now lives in Bal timore, he is a native Tar Heel, born in Riverton. WHITE'S REAL ESTATE a:gency ESTHER F.

Penna. Ave. OX 2-3211 W HAT does Easter mean? Most grown people know it means more than Easter parades and Easter music. Perhaps most grown people, whether they are Christians or not, are aware that Easter goes back to a story of long ago, when in a springtime gar den One who had been killed rose again in glorious life. Most Chris tians believe this Dr. Foreman story is true; but even those who do not, wish it could have beea Perhaps there is nothing in the Bible which an unbeliever would like to believe, more than the story of Easter. The reason for this meets the eye at once. If the Easter story is true, if it actually happened, as the Bible witnesses plainly say it did, then "life and immortality have been brought to life” as one New Testament writer says. What assurance have we that death Is not the last word for man? The Resurrection of Christ is the best assurance there is. Christ the e«RfHerer There is another side of the meaning of Easter, often over looked, yet very important in the New Testament picture of things. It is expressed in the ancient Latin expression, “Christus Victor,” Christ the Conqueror. 'Ibis is brought out in a little-read chapter of the Bible, Hebrews I. Here the emphasis is on powm:. 'The Resur rection (odd as this may seem) is not mentioned; the thought of the writer goes from the Cross (“purification for sins”) to the Throne of the universe. Christ’s appearances to the disciples are all by-passed in silence here. Christ is seen as sharing the Throne of God himself. It makes no difference whether we take the expressions literally or not; the meaning is clear enough. This is what we are challenged to be lieve; that Christ now shares the power of the “Majesty on high,” the God of aU the universes. The letter to the Hebrews was first read by people who lived in the Roman Empire, perhaps in Rome itself. They would be familiar with the custom of an emperor sharing his authority with a gen eral who had been victorious in —Over sin and death What has Jesus conquered? The short but thrilling answer is: Sin and Death. These are the two great enemies of mankind. They have not been conquered even yet in the sense that they have been abolished. But it can be noticed that when an individual identifies himself with Christ, he no longer cringes at the threat of sin and death. He is enabled—as Paul said, by the same power that brought Jesus Christ from the dead—to rise above sin, to be “set free from sin.” And although he faces death as much as any other man, the Christian does not fear it. This is not saying that no one can be a Christian who fears death. But we recall the familiar story of John Wesley and the storm at sea. Wesley was at that time a Christian, but that storm frightened him terribly. Then he discovered a group of Moravians happily singing hymns, not wor ried by the storm at all. They ex pected the ship to go do^, just as Wesley did; but he was looking at death while they were looking through it. Wesley’s whole life was changed by that incident. —Ovar ouraaivtt So Christ has set men free .. yet not free to do as we please. Whatever “at the right hand of the Majesty on high” can mean, it must mean at least this: that the authority of Christ is on a level with the authority of God. Christ does not set us free for a kind of anarchy; a Christian is not a masterless man. He who is Lord over sin and death, over all the “powers of darkness,” is l.ord over those who are called by his title—Christ-ians. But is this really so? Isn’t it true, too often, thai the only difference betw'een Chris tian and non-Christian is in word; only? The non-Christian says Jesus Christ is not Lord nor Savior The Christian says, Christ is Lord and Savior. And there too many Christians-in-word leave It. W( are all quite willing to be saved we are not so willing to take o; ders. The Christian-in-word bo gins to become a Christian-in-fact when as he begins to ask the same question Paul did; Lord, whai wilt Thou have me to do?
