Cronin Will Be Reviewed Tuesday “The Green Years” by A. J. Cronin will be reviewed Tuesday evening, April 10, at 8 o’clock in the Temple of Israel by Rabbi Mordecai M. Thurmar.. “An Horatio Alger theme runs through this novel by Cronin,” ob served Rabbi Thurman in speaking of “The Green Years.” “The theme, however, is not one of rags to riches, but of a boy’s am bition which fought against many disappointments. The author tells the story of a little, puny, physi cal body fighting its way to achieve a career, and it is a story that needs to be told more and more in this generation. The book is a lesson in human character.” A sliver offering for the benefit of the Red Cross and the United Jewish Appeal will be taken at the door. Sponsored by the Ladies' Concordia Society of the Temple of Israel the reviews are open to the public.
