Most of the story is laid in Saint-Domtngue. land of exile for French, aristocrats, like Mmc. Dejcan, who dreamed only of re turning some day to the gay court life she had known as a girl. Her husband, M. HypolUo De jean. owned a sugar plantation, but Antoine, their son. was the only member of the family with strength enough of character (??) (o snatch the whip from his father's hand and actually use it on the backs of laggard slaves. There are his tfro sisters, Louise, selfish and arrogant, but displaying unexpected coinage in the crisis; and Emilie, who wore her piety on her sleeve and found it pretty flimsy when put to the test. And there’s Mancttc. the family's de pendable servant, Who knew the right thing to do at Hie l ight time. And of course, Eugenie, weak where Antoine was concerned, hut strong when her dream ended and she faced vengeful reality. Miss Magaret's characters and setting are more vivid than her story. Read “Who Walk in Pride,” and See how you like it. It's interest ing and masterfully written, and ' well worth the price, even if we I.T. WILLIAM HEARN, SAVANNAH, LIBERATED MARGARET BRENT, ADVEN TURER, by Dorothy Fremont Grant, (Longmans, Green), $2.50. If you're interested either in a fascinating novel, or a glance at the history of colonial Maryland, first of all the American colonies actually to grant religious liberty and practice tolerance, Mrs. Grant's book, released last Octo ber,, is a perfect prescription for your needs. She is the author also of "War Is My ravish” which we told you about in December, and "What Other Answer?” published earlier last year. Prolific is one word for her 1944 record: and, to resort to the slang of the day, "tops” is another. All three books are splendid. "Margaret Brent. Adventurer,” is a combination of fiction and His tory. You'll enjoy the love story of Margaret Brent and Leonard Calvert, governor of Maryland; and you'11 know, better than all the history books ever (old you. why the Catholics came to Mary land and ltow they lived there at peace with their Protestant neigh bors, except when one hand of scoundrels overran llieir liltle set tlement and held it for a few years. You'll cross 1 lie ocean wrtlli the Brents; with them you'll visit Vir ginia where William Blakely was governor; and equally important, you'll find the main chraclrs warm and human and endearing. might wish some things about it different. Though he is only a minor character, we especially, like Ihe priest, Abbe Lefranc, who had the interests both of the masters and the slaves at heart; who "never sanctioned evil, but who refused to be shocked or even surprised by it.” THE ART OF LIVING JOY FULLY, by Henry Brenner, O. S. B„ (’the Grail). $1.00. Was it St. Teresa or her name sake, the Little Flower perhaps, tWe're always forgetting who said these lovely unforgettable things), who made the remark, "Deliver me from long-faced saints”? Why. when you stop to think of it, should being a saint make anyone any thing else hut radiantly and superbly happy? If you need a little coaching on SAVANNAH, Ga—First Lt. Wil liam D. Hearn, on of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. lleurn, has been liberated from a German prison camp. A bombardier, he was reported missing on March 2, 1944. He a graduate of Benedictine Military School. the subject of remaining on the bright side, regardless of the upts and downs of every day life (and who doesn't need it?) we heartily recommend Father Brenner’s, charmingly brief sermons in his happy little hook, “The Art of Living Joyfully.” lie talks to the reader in simple language, and shows tfiat the "art” is valuable psychologically and even physical ly, as well as spiritually. We discovered to our delight that it’s a book which will make a perfect gift for many of our dear, non-Catholic friends; for while thoroughly Catholic, it touches no controversial subjects. It will do them, and us, a world of good lo read it. G. I. JOE RAIDS THE ICE-BOX ESTABLISHED 1880 Complete Banking and Trust Facilities The Liberty NationalBank & Trust Co. SAVANNAH,GEORGIA J C. ,S.
