World Affairs Theme of Study — The Vernonia Study Club met Thursday, September 11, to begin a new program of study for the year. Most of the books listed have to do with world affairs, Mrs. J. W. Nichols, chairman of the program committee, reported, the ultimate aim being a fair background of world conditions as they exist at the time the books were written. For relief from the main topic, books of lighter vain will be pre sented throughout the year, it was announced. For roll call at the first fall meeting held at the home of Mrs. E. J. Preston, vacation high-lights were mentioned by the members. The resignations of three prominent members who have been with the club for years were accepted.

Richard Fletcher gave an excellent review of two books by Pierre Van Paassen, “Days of Our Years” and “The Time Is Now”. The author, born of a strict Dutch family, started out as a minister in Canada, becoming later a reporter who visited the warring countries of Europe and Africa. Van Paassen’s vivid story of leaders in the world of war and conditions in the war ring nations are colored with per sonal observations and philosphies which make the reader live in the night-mare of the sometimes heart rending facts which the reporter sees and is a victim. The smaller book, “The Time Is Now,’! is a prediction, answering questions on the outcome of the present war, questions of vital interest to everyone. O.
