BRAHMS' REQUIEM Music Review FEW months ago, iII the Art lVIuseum Auditorium, I had the pleasure of hearing Brahms' Requiem , presented by the Toledo Choral Society under the talented direction of lllrs. Mary Willing. TBCIIICS for the seven movements are taken from the text of the Bible. The second choral movement, All Flesh Doth Perish as the Grass, was particularly affecting. VVith the Inelodious blending of the choral voices as a background, Edgar Ifmerson, baritone, gave an excellent rendition of the third InoveIneIIt, Lord lkiake INIe to Know VVhat the lkleasure of lkly Days Nlay Be. The soprano solo, Ye Who Sorrow, Ye Who Mourn, Hear Ye, was beautifully sung by Edith Owens and the chorus. Blest Are the Dead Which in the Lord Are Sleeping from Henceforthf' the concluding number, appealed to me Inost because of its varied moods. -JEAN ZERBEE '43 THE LIEUTENANT'S LADY By Bess Streeter Aldrich ORKIAN STANFORD is waiting for the boat that will brihg to him the girl he is to Inarry, but to his dismay he finds himself meeting her cousin. How does Linnie Colsworth appear rather than Cynthia and what is Norman to do? The meeting incidentally takes place at one of the outposts of civilization in the l800's, a fort on a small river in the Montana territory. Bess Streeter Aldrich once more brings to us a picture of frontier life. The Lil'llft'IIl1l1f,S Lady, like her former books, paints IDOST vividly and interestingly the trials, romances, and tragedies of the life of the pioneers on the rolling western plains. I personally prefer this book to all her others and I think it will appeal to the romantic hearts of both old aIId young. -PATRICIA CEI,L'sTA '43 AND DOWN THE DAYS by J, L. Bonn, S. IZZIE ST. JOHN was a slum child who firmly believed that one should be the est of something, even if it be the meanest or dirtiest. She lived during and after the Civil War-iii fact she made money on the war. Even before she met them, her calculating mind settled all difficulties. The greatest fear of her life was that it might be discovered that her mother was lvlaria lN'Ionk, whose Awful Disclosures was an ugly attack oII the Catholic Church. In this biography, Father Bonn, the author of So Falls the Elm Tree, tells the story of Lizzie St. john Ifckel, who though well versed in crafty scheming and intrigue, was gradually guided by loving Catholic friends into a Christian way of thinking, which was not completely accomplished even with Baptism. His style is artistically clear and mas- terful. The opening paragraphs create immediately the mood of the narrative, making it impossible to put the book dowII. -PATRICIA Fox '43 THE SCROLL -l l

Now is the time to look to Rome, the seat of the only government that is not shaken by the waves of time but still advances with firm and steady step along the path laid down two thousand years ago by its Founder, Jesus Christ. Through the ages the Church has been the one thing which vio- lence of men can I10t change. Yes, men have tried and men will keep on trying to destroy the Church, but all they will ever be able to destroy are the people who make up the Church and that is fruitless, for always others will rise to carry on. This is not a book to read in an hour or even twog this is a book worth the time it takes to read. Pageant of the Popes will make you realize what a glorious thing you possess in the faith of Peter. -ELEANOR ,IACOMET '43 RANDOM HARVEST Movie Review cc ANDONI HARVEST is M-G-M's picturization of james Hilton's well known novel, a strange tale beautifully told. lt is concerned with an English artisoerat, Charles Ranier. who loses his memory in a shell hole in France during the first YVorld War. Sent to an asylum in England, he escapes during the Armistice Day cele- bration and is befriended by a show girl, Paula Smith, who inspires him to begin life all over again. They fall in love, marry, and have a child. The events following are so heart-breaking and realistic, that it would be unfair to relate them. Paula is magnificently portrayed by Greer flilrs. Nliniverj Garson, the 1942 Academy Award winner. Ronald Colman is co-starred as Charles, the shell-shocked soldier. His acting gives the show that certain something needed for a first-rate production. The photography, dialogue, and acting go together to complete this very excellent picture of the year. -NIARGARET A. DAVIES '43 THE SEVENTH CROSS By Anna Seghe rs HIS is a story of a man hunt, and an insight into the Germany of I94-2. Presented in arresting manner is the none-too-romantic hero, George Heisler, a German who escapes from a concentration camp with six fellow prisoners. Successful in escape, George must seek and find his freedom. It is in following these adventures with the prin- cipal characters that the absorbed reader is introduced to a once tranquil land now torn psychologically and politically by the insidiousness of racism. Together with the aforementioned character, the reader meets the older generation of men and women of Germany, perplexed and helpless to cure the disease that wastes them, and fanatical youth, hysterically clinging to the devastating twentieth century evil of Nazism. Perhaps it is not George Heisler as much as the knowledge of the effect of Nazism on the average German that holds the interest of the reader to the last distinctive page of this powerful narrative. -PATRICIA BLAKE '43 THE SCROLI.

THE REED AND THE ROCK by Theodore Maynard HE REED AND THE ROCK is the story of the life of Simon Gabriel Brute, one of the first French missionaries who worked in Maryland and New York in the late eighteenth century. Americans should look with particular interest towards him, for, were there not men like him, the spread of the faith in the New World would have been im- possible of accomplishment. Because he lived during the French Revolu- tion and had seen many Christians martyred, he loved his faith so much he devoted his energies to teaching it to others, even at the risk of losing his own life. This informally written biography deals with Father Brute's child- hood in Rennes, France, through young manhood when he enters the priesthood, and continues his experiences as a missionary in the New World. While the story as a whole is beautifully written, at times the pattern of thought tends to be obscured by an abundance of detail. For one who likes biography, this is truly a must read. -VEKNA PATKE '43 THE SOUL OF THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE Lecture Review ' HAT religion is still living in Russia, and that the soul of Russia is a deeply religious soul was the subject of lliiss Helen Iswolsky's lecture here on February third. Miss Iswolsky, well known journalist and author, left no doubt in the minds of those who heard her that over half her people still hold tenaciously to Christian principles, and this despite persecution and the godless political regime of the past twenty-five years. Herself an ex-patriate, Nliss Iswolsky evinced great pride in her countrymen's brave defense of Stalingrad. Stalingrad, she said, is an ex- ample of the metamorphosis that has taken place in Ruwia. The courage displayed there during the tragically historic months-old siege showed a nation fighting, not so much for the survival of the communistic ideal, but a people fighting to live. When asked if there is an assurance that religious persecution has ceased in Russia, lVIiss Iswolsky answered: VVe have no more than the hope that governmental restrictions will be eased and freedom of religion will be allowed. -DOROTHY BLACK '43 YOUNG MAN OF CARACAS By T. R. Ybarra IVA LA ANIERICA DEL SURF' Yes, long live South Amer- ica will be the cry of all who enter the pages of T. R. Ybarra's delightful autobiography, Young Jllan of Caracas. Crowded on every page of this charming book are anecdotes which will delight the thousands who read it. For those who prefer pathos, there are the touch- ing passages in which the author relates the struggle within himself as he chooses the country to which he will pledge his final allegiance, the United States or Venezuela. For us, the romantic youth of today, there are the very nearly ludicrous pages in which he tells the story of his father's and mother's courtship in true Spanish style. Ybarra's young life was spent amidst numerous revolutions, each one of which he describes in his own inimitable style. So. if you feel the blues or some other ailment coming on, take this reviewer's advice and read Young fllmz of Crzrruvzs. For, in my opinion, it is the anecdote for almost any ache or pain. -PATSY RICINTOSH '44 THE SCROLL
