PURCELL, President STOCKS and BONDS Phone 197 Exchange Building REVIEW o/NEW BOOKS New books at the Newberry county library include the following: “Never Another Moon’’ by Helen i Topping Miller, the author of so many delightful romantic novels. “Years Are So Long” by Josephine Lawrence is a book you will surely want to read. You probably read and enjoyed very much “If I Have Four Apples” by Miss Lawrence. The new book is based on the commandment, “Honor Thy Fathey and Thy Moth er . . .” It’s a beautiful and moving story. “William’s Room” by Alice Grant Rossman is a good fiction by a pop ular novelist. „ “History of Williamsburg” by Boddie. The author in a South Caro linian and is writing about Williams burg of this state. “The Happy Hunting Grounds” by A. S. Salley, Jr., secretary of the historical commission of South Caro lina. The book contains the personal experiences of the author in the low country of the state, As you may guess by the title it’s a book for sportsmen, a story of forest and stream. “Feathered Water” by Edith Holt on and “Purslane” by Bernice Harris are two more new books. Both are novels and are by writers who are newcomers to the local library shelves. “Gunnar’s Daughter” by Sigrid Undset is this author's newest novel. His books are rather queer. Some en joy them while others don’t care for his writing. You may have read “The Pig” or “The Axe” by Undset. “Country Lawyer” by Bellamy Partridge is a book that will be wide ly read. Partridge writes about his gather, telling of his hard sledding in law practicing during his first years just oat of school and of his later life and service in a small village. A reviewer says the book is a “well- seasoned potrait of a dignified, strongly individualistic aid lovely personality such as could have been produced only by the country town as yet unimproved by the automo bile, the radio, and the chain store. It is at once the human document of a man and of a profession. TOM DAVIS IS EDITOR OF SCHOOL YEARBOOK Tom Davis, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. E.
