where you set sail upon the high
seas of some interesting book
on Good Ship Imagination? Per
haps you frequented a pent
house in a tree,, or some other
secluded spot in the Cathedral
of Out-of-Doors in summer, and
a cozy place indoors in winter.
Our house was divided by a
long hall and the parlor was an
ideal hide-away, because it was
not in use except on Sundays,
I when it usually overflowed with
relatives.
And did you have a favorite
book which influenced your
play for days and maybe even
weeks and months? My favorite
was Swiss Family Robinson. I
claimed every cocoanut shell for
months to use for dishes in imi
tation of the shipwrecked Rob
inson family.
In those days, just as my
hero was about to be shipwreck
ed and maybe drowned, Mama
would call, “Midgie, come wash
the dishes. ’ I would plead.
“Please, mam, just let me finish
this chapter." Almost invariabl.v
I would finish that chapter and
sneak over into the next, be
cause suspense was at such a
fevered pitch I couldn't bring
myself back into a hum-drum
world with dishes to wash and ■
dry. In recent years I have pre
ferred washing dirty dishes to j
dirty literature. There seemed to :
be none which equalled Swiss i
Family Robinson for suspense,
information and all-round clean
entertainment.
But recently something hap- :
pened in the literary world. A
Georgia newspapej- man. Daven
port Steward, has written a good
book called “No time for
Fear.” which rivals my child
hood favorite for suspense and
other good qualities. It is an all-
Georgia product, having also
been published in our Capital l
City. Propped myself against'
down pillows in the middle of ’
my be-ruffled bed and missed,
my usual amount of needed
“shuteye” while living perilous
ly the life of the Quaker farm
boy, Penn Thomason. With him,
I fought violently against the:
British under General Francis I
Marion, the famous “Swamp;
Fox”; hid in the mucky swamp
like a hunted animal; swam an j
icy creek while bullets fired

If you are looking for love
and F-sses on every page you
will not be interested in this
book. If you like adventure, au
thentic history and plenty of
suspense you will read “No
Time for Fear” until exhaustion
overtakes you.
Every boy and girl of high
school age would have a better
appreciation and understanding
of how we won our American
independence if this book were
made required reading.
The title seems particularly
timely in these troublous days
—a title to inspire us to lift up
our chins and. say, “I am a free
American and I have ‘No Time
for Fear’ as I work busily at
preserving freedom for a whole
world.”
