THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 1958 THH PILOT—Southern Pines, North Carolina Some Looks At Books By LCXJKIE PARKER Rites Conducted THE GREAT DEMOCRACIES. A ICstory 6f the English-Spoak* mg Peoples, VoL IV, by Winston Churchill, (Dodd, Mead $6.00). No one interested in American his tory should miss this volume, for a good half of'it is devoted to de velopments in the United States in the^ nineteenth century, and it is always wholesome to see our selves as others see us, particu larly when the observer has as keen a mind as Churchill’s. An other gift he has is that of keep ing the grand lines of the subject in view—your view' and his—so that you never lose sight of the forest for the trees. The hundred odd pages on the Civil War are a superb example of this. As a military man he is intensely interested in the cam paigns. I am not, but for the first time I got a clear overall picture of the gains and losses in suc cessive years, the rise and fall of hopes, the brilliance of the tactics of Lee and Jackson and the cotir- age and hopelessness of the last stand. Students of the subject will doubtless disagree with him on some points, including his as sessment of the qualities of vari ous generals—he has decided opinions about them but he al ways tells why. Along with his attention to the United States, he carries with ease an even greater subject, the expansion of the English-speak ing peoples into all continents. Eight million people left the Brit ish Isles 1815-1880, and there were still more than twice as many there as in 1815. They went to Canada, Australia, Af rica, India and scores of other places. They went as traders, ex plorers, missionaries, soldiers, settlers. Eventually, the government recognized the potential wealth and power involved, organized the Dominions, began to think in terms of Empire. With this and the wealth produced at home by industrial development plus financial talent, Churchill could well say that at the end of the nineteenth century, “A hundred years of peace and progress had carried Britain to the leadership of the world." There are many other fascin ating facets to this book, such as QiurchiU’s views on the succes sive prime ministers of the cen tury and other European states men. Written in his usual felici tous style, it is a highly readable book and is stimulating to histor ical argument and further ex ploration.

N. & Makers of “LAUREL QUEEN" BEDDING her beautiful, gay mother died in London, Jane learned that they were descended from the Blakes of the Marsh, including a general who fought with Marl boro, and that her mother had spent her childhood in the great house there, “Blake’s Reach.” So young Jane took the carriage and pair, her yoimg stepbrother and a faithful servant, and they slipped away from the creditors on a journey to the old house where a sailor had told her that her grandfather was drinking himself to death. After that, a great many things happen. Jane is readily recogniz ed on the Marsh as a Blake and proudly starts out to restore the family fortunes. She finds much kindness among the local people but also dark secrets, danger, ro mance, adventure, and eventual ly love. Miss Gaskin sustains the NORTH FROM ROME by Hel en Macinnes (Harcourt, Brace.l $3.95). Undoubtedly, Helen Mac innes is the dean of the current suspense writers. In “North From Rome” she has employed all the techniques that make for a'daz zling tale. What started out for Bill Lam- miter, a successful playwright, as an Italian holiday to persuade his errant fiancee to come home turned into a desperate struggle to free Eleanor from Count. Luigi Pirotta s influence. Luigi, a mem ber of an ancient Roman family, will sacrifice his title gladly for a key position in the Communist party. The interesting part is that an organization such as Bill stumbles upon does exist, maybe not in Italy but nevertheless some where. This book is the most pol ished of Miss Macinnes’ career and one of the best novels of the season. —JANE LA MARCHE have.

That is where the Israelite nation started, or if you like, that was where it was before it started. You might think that as their as tonishing history rolled on, and they took a dignified place in an ancient world, — you might think they would like to forget their ex ceedingly low origins. Some did. no doubt, forget all about it. But their prophets and their great men re membered. It was written into their Law: “You shall remember that you were a ^ervant in the land of Egypt.” The Ten Command ments begin: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of . the land of bondage.” What was the point of remembering those grimy days in Egypt?

Olvina Deliverer ' The other thing the Hebrews were taught to remember, another reason for remembering their long slavery years, was that God de livered them. They did not deliver themselves, they had no powerful friends among the nations. Nobody fought to set them free, they did not raise a hand on their own behalf. They just walked out. With out getting ahead of our story, we can recall that the entire exodus from Egypt is set forth as God’s doing. So when the Israelites thought back on their past, their not only humble bqt rather hor rible beginnings, they were ex pected to be grateful to God for taking them out of there. It can be so with us. Even a poet who lived before Christianity could make one of his heroes say, after a terrible shipwreck. “Perhaps one day it will be a pleasure to re member even this.” And a Chris tian can say far more. Every trouble we have had, every dis aster we have survived, every danger passed, every humiliation and hardship endured,—if we have come out of it with a Christian spirit, will make us all the more grateful to God. ' -BvnrtPiwwEwuL In a nation as big as ours there is always a tendency to overlook the individual and to think only of groups. Youth gets the brunt of. this generalizing. About three percent of our boys and girls are delinquent. But some folks would have us believe that every child is a potential de linquent. Time we realized that children aren’t chicks! They don’t grow up by the drawerful to have the same characteristics and habits. Children respond to love, parental example, religious guidance. They possess an ever- increasing aptitude for responsibility, trust, and faith. Most of our boys and girls will grow up to assume their rightful place in an orderly, Christian society. Some will populate our jails. But the destiny of the individual youth is not a matter of chance and percentage . . . It is determined primarily by the conscien tiousness of loving parents, and by the per sistency with which his natural religious in terests are cultivated. the church for AU . . .

Ad versity is not sweet, and no one should pretend to like it. But its uses are many. Besides the two already mentioned, a heightened appreciation of present blessings, and a sense of gratitude to God our Father, let us set down a third: The capacity for sympathy. There were many minority groups in the Hebrew nation, from their first days to their last. ’They would always be tempted to treat those minorities,—people of a different race and background—with con tempt. They would consider them fair game for exploitation. They would tolerate them only as sec ond-class citizens. But one of the main good uses they could make of their memories of slavery, was not to despise minority groups, the helpless men and women on the fringes of society. So it is today. There is not a race in the world that did not have a lowly, even ; savage background. No people* was lever born civilizzed, no people was eyer born powerful. Any nation that forgets its own small begin nings is on the way to fatal pride. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH New York Ave. at South Ashe Maynard M.angum.
