'the Totalitarian 's way of life.
This is the novel, already widely
r,vid and discussed In Europe ,
»Mch has won for its author , Bor-
|
, I'anternak. the Nobel Prize for
literature . Aside from the interest
created by the awarding of the
.
Sobel Prize , critics have acclaimed
this novel as one of the moKt sig-
nificant of our times, and it will
surely be one of the "greats" -
islring Its place with the other
classics,
Another book on the Mau-Muu
ronntry has appeared, "Man Hunt
In Kenya ", by Ian Henderson with
phillp Ooodhart. 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-

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 . Anoth-
,r fascinating book new to the
Selves of the library is Thor

island.
Nevil filmic bus a new book
oal, "The Rainbow and the Rose".
Australia and aviation , which have
apparently exerted great influences
mi Mi Shute's life , have been wov-
en into the novel , and while the
plot leans rather heavily on co-
incidence and concealed identity,
tiie romance of the story of avia-
tion in more than enough to over-
'iitn i these defects and make for
a deeply moving novel .
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.

CHRISTMAS DECORATION
SUGGESTIONS
Now that the Bury of Thanks-
giving Day is past, the lime has
come that we can settle down and
make plans for Christinas festivi-
ties. 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.
