Mr . Henderson, a „hito man born in Kenya , was (Tiief Superintendent of the Nia- robi police and he was assigned to capture the Mau-Mau leader, Ded- ;,n Rimatbi. This fascinating book ban many of the aspects of fiction ncept for the fact that Mr. Hen- derson has told his story with u Health of detail that could come only from a thorough knowledge ,,f Hie Kiguyus their language and the way their mind works .

Mildred Savage, a new author, maieH her debut with a book call- ed "Parrish". Miss Savage is said '" nave many of the qualities of Edna l erber. and a comparison can be made between "Parrfsh" and "fi'am '. allowing for the differ- fni'ii" ni actual story and setting. i™<- w iting Is the tobacco country M Connecticut, and tells of young ^rriq, MacLean who works in ""¦ '"Ids and learns of the feuds and itruggles of the area.

It is a good time to recall some ol the suggestion- made by Mrs. John E. Fairbank when th e members of the Hyannis Garden Club last met . Mrs. Fairbank led the members on an imaginary tour of the house and suggested designs appropriate for each of the rooms utilizing inexpensive and easily ac- cessible materials , and also keep- ing in mind that these shoul d be projects for tti<- entire family. An intrigin g suggestion for the dining room table was a center - piece designed to compliment the silver service. A regular pineapple, the age-old symbol of hospitality. was sprayed with silver paint in such a way that on looking down al it the leaves wi re green inside and silver outside. The entire pineapple was studded with pearl- beaded corsage pins. For the chil- dren there was a min iature Christ- mas tree dotted with lollypops which could later be removed tor the important purpose of being eaten, hi the kitchen there was a ring mould filled with juniper. A fut red candle , anchored to a custard cup, was placed 'in the center.' Mrs. Fairbank showed bow lib- eral use of wire coathangers, bard- ware cloth and chicken wire could be used as foundations , and how native shrubs and trees, sparkled by the use of the gold, silver , cop- per and bronze paints available In pressure spray cans could be con- verted easily and Inexpensi vely In- to the mos t imaginaliv , lecnro- t ion.
