BOOK CORNER
BY
LUCILLE HEFFNER
Do you think you’d rather
read the book prior to seeing the
movie or vice versa? We aren’t
attempting to reach a decision
on this question, but we would
like you to know that we have
many books from which movies
have been made, or are now
being produced. All the books
listed here are available in our
Library.
Did you see The Bells Of St.
Mary’s with Bing Crosby in the
title role? The story, written by
George Victor Martin is none-
less exciting than the movie.
Would you like to read it?
For many months Library
patrons have asked for B. F.’s
Daughter, writtn by the famous
novelist, John P. Marquand.
Now MGM has brought this
outstanding romance to the
screen. It stars Barbara Stan
wyck, Van Heflin and Charles
Coburn.
Laura Z. Hobson wrote the
much-discussed Gentleman’s
Agreement! 20th Century-Fox
presents Gregory Peck, Dorothy
McGuire and John Garfield in
the acting roles. Read the book,
then await anxiously the movie
adaptation.
It will make you believe in
miracles! Heart warming, and
tender is this unforgettable story
of The Miracle Of The Bells,
as told by Russell Janney. The
movie presntation features Fred
MacMurray, Valli, and Frank
Sinatra. This is a different kind
of love story—^genuinely mov
ing—filled with unshed tears,
remembered laughter and the
bright and shining miracle that
stirred the heart of America.
You get a lot for your money
in reading Green Dolphin Street
by Elizabeth Goudge. Earth
quakes, native uprisings, a ty
phoon and two vivacious beau
ties, make the entire story a
thriller. In the screen production,
Lana Turner plus Donna Reed
and Van Heflin share the acting
honors. A wonderful book, a
thrilling story. Read this book!
Never forget the movie!
"Meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
meet me at the fair!” Doesn’t
that recall pleasant memories?
By re-reading the book you can
again re-live "the good ’ole days”.
Ihe author, Sally Benson, has
given us a warm and nostalgic
story of a typical American
family prior to the St. Louis Ex
position of 1904. The film star
red Judy Garland with Margaret
O’Brien and Mary Astor. You
and your family will find much
pleasure in Aleet Me In St.
Louis.
And don’t forget (as if you
would) to read Tap Roots by
James Street. This film is cur
rently in the making in Holly
wood. Scenes filmed in this
county, Henderson and Bun
combe give the film local in
terest. The story is an excellent
one; you’ll recommend it to your
friends.
"Support the Red Cross"
The girls are asking for Eisen
hower stockings—the kind that
won’t run.
