As for me, I would admit the last epithet; nowthat I have new glasses I would deny gratefully the se- cond; the first not at all. Read- ing I do but fitfully and then find little time to marshal my thoughts into printed lines. However I recommend for summer perusal three produc- tions of English pens. They are The Shapes of Sleep by J. B. Priestley The author calls it a topical tale- to him that is not pre- cisely a novel and indeed it is not a run-of-the-mill sort of book. There are an almost confusing number of characters who appear and disappear ra- pidly alternately in England and Germany. It mystifies but is not strictly a mystery. It is gay and sparkling and intriging, presenting life in the world to- day very clearly. Mr. Priest- ley cleverly and with consum- . mate skill says firmly what he has to say about our almost un- believable trend toward re- moving all mankind from the face of the earth. And then there is An Error in Judgement by Pamela Hansford Johnson This is a peculiarly fascinating philosophical novel. I do not mean that it is heavy reading but it does present ideas of compelling interest. I am not sure that I really liked the book but it was fascinating. An oddly conglomerate group of people are linked together through their individual re- lationships with one person. This central figure is a brilliant consulting physician, William Setter by name. He is consider- ed basically trustworthy and admirable, Close to the pin- nacle of medical success he decides to cease practice, The reason he gives is that within himself he is conscious of a great tendency toward cruelty and he wishes to remove him.- self im-self from the temptation to cause pain. He remains firm in his decision and thus manage; to convince one that he feels within himself this evil although there has been little outward evidence. His gay wife Emily adds liveliness to the story. The narrator is Victor Henrey, a hypochondriac who has been a patient -- also present are Hen- rey's wife, Jenny, tiresomely girlish, and his ultra -dependent mother-in-law, A thread of terror darkens the web of the tale in the presence of Sammy Underwood, an apparently cal- lous member of a gang that may have murdered an old dere- lict. Setter feels compelled to do something about Sammy .and therein lies misfortune. I do not think any percipient reader can remain lukewarm about Setter's action. In lighter vein but with its elements of fearful tension too is The Ivy Tree by Mary Stewart I tried to give a condensed ver- sion of this book to my husband. I could not make it credible in the telling but it is completely so in the reading. It is an- other great impersonation story set in the Roman wall country of England in June of the year. The book is worth reading for the descriptions of the countryside alone. It has also a meticulous attention to de- tail as the plot unfolds to the hoped-for but unexpected conclusion. E. S. Smith Was Tornado Victim Funeral service for the late Stanley Earl Smith, 63, vic- tim of the June 29th tornado, was held in the Spy Hill United Church on Wednesday July 3rd with Rev. J. Mitchell officiat- ing. Burial was made in Spy Hill cemetery in the family plot with Frank Carter, John Cuss, Sam Chapman, Mervyn Ness, Walter Farmer and Elwin Thorpe as pallbearers. During the service, a special number "Rock of Ages" was sung by members of the United Church choir, with Mrs. Stewart Perrin at the organ. The late Mr. Smith was born in Wallace County, Ont- ario, in 1900, and went to Spy Hill, Saskatchewan, with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Moses Smith. He later farmed with his parents in the Bave- law district, and following their death, continued farming until his passing in the storm. During recent years, he had rented part of his land, and instead of living in the parent- al home, lived with hiscousin Robert Clark who farmed the Smith homestead. For a few years, Mr. Smith spent his winters visiting rel- atives in the Listowel district of Ontario, but had stayed at Spy Hill most of the time. He is survived by three sisters, all widowed, Ruth (Mrs, James Richardson), Mary(Mrs. Frank Baseley) both of Spy Hill, and Evelyn (Mrs, John Barham) of Delhi, Ont. , as well as eleven nieces and nephews and numer- ous cousins. Mr, Smith was never married. THE INSIDE OF THE BELGRAVE Arena is pictured above and shows the heavy construction which was used in putting up the building. The outline of the old cement floor shows the increase in size of the new bu'Iding. Donations are still being accepted by the committee to cover the cost of the structure, which was put up with volunteer labor. -Advance-Times Photo, RIVERSIDE PARK NEWS By the Supervisor STILL GROWING The 4-7 year Tadpole Class proved itself again last Wednesday when a staggering 50 children showed up.
