The Browser Talks of Books
BY MARSHALL MASLIN
THE BROWSER said last week,
that he had read the first fifty pages
of Ayn Rand’s “We the Living’’ and
knew it was going to be a good
book. . . , For once he was right.
And, for once, an author didn’t let
a trusting reader down ... It IS
a good book. And the Browser says
this, even though he is well aware
that a considerable number of read
ers may call it a lying, warped and
prejudiced novel. That can’t be help
ed; because Ayn Rand has written
a story around human beings who
are caught up in the whirlwind of
a revolution—and if she belivez
that the wickedest, the toughest,
the most unscrupulous men and wo
men in a revolution at the
expense of those who are less self,
minded, less well equipped with
claws and fangs it is her privilege
to set that conviction down on pap
er—as long as she makes her story
consistent with her human beings
and gives reality to her characters.
That subscription to the capital
stock shall be made by cash, mer
chandise or personal services.
4. That the object of the proposed
corporation is pecuniary gain to
its stockholders in the operation
of a brokerage business dealing
generally in the buying and selling
of food stuff, grain, and similar
commodities, for its own account
or the account of others.
5. Petitioners pray the right to
purchase, lease, hold, and sub-lease
real estate, with the power to sell
or otherwise, dispose of the same
as is incident and necessary to a
corporation of this nature, to bor
row money, give security therefor,
and to generally exorcise all pow
ers and rights incident to a cor
poration of this nature under the
laws of the state of Georgia.
WHEREFORE, petitioners pray
to be made a body corporate, under
the name and style aforesaid, and
entitled to the rights, powers and
privileges herein stated and in
cident to a corporation of this char
acter.
EMANUEL KRONSTADT,
Attorney for Petitioners,
Original petition filed in Clerk’s
Office, this 9th day of April, 1936.

ser believes you will remember the
girl Kira and the two men Andrei
and Leo for many a year to come.
. . . Miss Rand is a Russian. She
was born in Petrograd, was grad
uated from the University of Pet
rogad (and her description of that
city, in “We the Living ”, is a mas
terpiece). She came to America to
write, went to Hollywood. The first
senarlo she wrote was “Red Dawn’’,
for Marlene Dietrich. The first play
she ever wrote was “The Night of
January 16’’. It ran for more than
seven months in New York, is now
playing in Vienna and is in rehear
sal in Budapest. Her first novel was
“We the Living”, and she sold that
immediately. . . . Not a sweet book,
but one that will move deeply all
who care about the fat® of the
human race.

“Woman is the equal of man in
these days in everything but polit
ics, and if a husband or father
dare remonstrate he is run out of

wonder there are so many bache.
lors in Rome!”
And one more:
“Finally she said what a bore it
was to be married, and what a re
lief it was when one’s husband went
off to the wars, and war had been
woman’s best friend, for it was the
constant wars in which Rome had
been engaged for so many years
that had given women their free
dom: These men had been away for
so long at a time, often for years,
that women had got used to free
dom and having things their own
way, and the men, now that the
world was almost peaceful, had
given up trying to rule their wives
as they used to in the old days.”

HOW ILLNESS CAN
ALTER CHARACTER
By LOGAN CLENDENING. M. D.
IT IS a common observation that
various kinds of sickness may en
tirely change a person’s character.
It is the exceeptlon to find people who
remain patient and cheerful under
the hammerings of pain and disabil
ity. So we get the irritability of
the gouty, the abnormal excitability of
the thyrotoxic.
In may instances it is easy to link
the personality change to the dis
ease. But, on the other hand, it
often happens that a friend or rela
tive may be seen to be completely
disintegrating. The change is char
itably put down to old age or busi
ness worries, when, as a matter of
fact, it is definitely linked with an
organic disease.
This is especially true of the con
dition known as “myxedema,” which
is due to the stoppage of the secre
tion of the thyroid gland. That con
dition commonly occure in women
past middle age. The patient gradu
ally becomes very heavy, and with
this there goes an extreme sluggish
ness of mental reactions, slowness
of speech, slowness of muscular
movement, and lack of initattve.
In fully developed cases the diagno
sis should be very easy, with the
heavy, sleepy countenance and hard
infiltration under the skin. And yet,
although it has been described often
enough, patients all too frequently
drift along without any diagnosis be
ing made. In a report of seven cases
it was found that six of them had
gone on for years without diagnosis.

STRIKE ME PINK"
EDDIE CANTOR’S PICTURE
DELIGHTS LOCAL
AUDIENCES
Eddie Cantor’s “Strike Me Pink,”
showing all this week at the Savan
nah Theater continues to draw large
and appreciative audiences.
An interesting review of the picture
is written by Pete Harrison, well
known critic. It follows:
Good! Eddie Cantor romps through
the picture in his usual comical fash
ion, provoking laughs by his effort*
to change from a timid tailor to a
fearless amusement park manager. An
added attraction for those who have
listened in on his radio programs and
have been amused bp his assistant
“Parkyakakus,” is the novelty of ac
tually seeing this character teamed
with Cantor; the few scenes in which
they appear together, particularly
those in which they accidentally go
up in a ballon, are very comical.
Ethel Merman sings effectively popu
lar songs to the taste of the masses.
The action is fast, combining thrills
with comedy and romance. The clos
ing scenes, although of the slapstick
variety, are unroariously funny and
so exciting that they should hold the
audience in tense suspense—in an
effort to gangsters who were
pursuing him, intent on killing him.
Cantor slides from a roller coaster
into a ballon from which he eventual
ly falls, only to be caught
who were performing in the air and
who make him part of their act.
The plot was adapted from the Sat
urday Evening Post story “Dream
land,” by Clarence Buddington Kel
land. Frank Butler, Walter DeLeoif
and Francis Martin wrote the scree?
play. Norman Taurog directed it an(
Samuel Goldwyn produced it. In th<
cast are Clyde Hager, Sidney H.
Fields, William Fawley, and others.
