And I'm not at all limited In my tastes for either food or reading matter. Every thing is included, even the Who Done It books. Though I m par tial to scientific books ii written in layman language. Lyman Abbott says of books: "A good book is a good friend. It will talk to you when you want it to talk, and lt will keep still when you want it to keep still. A library is a collection of friends." RADAR GUN HELD PROBABLE ANSWER TO ATOMIC BOMB Washington, Aug. 24 (U.R) The navy thinks it may have found the answer to the atomic bomb a radar-controlled gun capable of bringing down any hostile plane approaching with in 50,000 feet of a battleship. So confident are navy officials of the gun's efficacy that Secre tary James V. Forrestal has told members of congress that he hopes it will protect the fleet from any possibility of atomic bomb attacks should America ever become embroiled in war On the other hand, still more potent kinds of atom bombs are expected to be developed. And no one knows yet just what j would happen if one should be! set off in the water even o miles from a ship. Tests may be I made in the future to find out The navy's new gun is under I stood to be entirely automatic in operation, with its firing action synchronized with radar. As oon as a plane appears on the radar screen it will be sub jected immediately to a hail of shells. In view of the development of the new gun, it is understood, navy officials believe that a ma-l Jor two-ocean fleet will still b feasible and necessary despite the devastating irwtrv -e pow er of the unleashed atom.

This book is especially recom mended to those who have a weakness for the humorous. For this book is a humorous account of life as lived by the Maguire family at Three Tree Point on Puget Sound. Mrs. Maguire sees the funny side of everything; even her husband's Induction In to the army. My father gave me Marguerite Lyon's Take tct the Hills saying her style of writing made him think of me. Which was sheer flattery tor I have nothing to match the gay tolerance with which she views all human frail tics. If you like more serious read ing then certainly I recommend Do You Know Labor? b Myers. And Henry George's Progress and Poverty, though written 50 years ago, is as up to date as the latest news (lash. A book to be read when you are rested and able to think with clarity and an open mind. Being a bed reader, my chuckles brought mumbling pro test from my husband last night. My mirth was not only untimely but unseemly, provoked as it was by Homer's gory details of battles fought so many centuries ago. Again and again, in the Iliad, he ends a paragraph telling of the death of a warrior, with, "His armor rattling round him as he fell heavily to the ground." Homer recognized a rattling good phrase, once he had coined it, and kept on dishing it out. "hmigh I'm sure he had any thing but the amusement of a matron several centuries later in mind wU?n he did so. 1 Two bin. books which I have lately added t my library are Birds of the Garden, by the Pa cific coast naturalii' Margaret McKenny and The Storv of a ' Bird Lover, by William Scott. 1 expected the Princeton professo to be an able writrr but it sur prised me to find him an enter k -.ftgnwiT 4 hi m M I ar m ' ill H Ce1ektsl fbtt J o i In m p i Complete Factory Approved SAFETY SERVICE Chrvtlcr Fac 'orv Engineer d and fntptct d Paris tot vhrvtisr Dodge Plymouth Dodge Trucki L.
