ers OF Clichy, where Destouches Is
attached to the municipal dispensary,
never have heard either Of "Celne"
or his novel, Journey to the End OF
the Night"
Therein is a story Of dual per-
sonality which remains largely inn
penetrable because either as DR.. Des-
touches or M. Celine he wards on
curious inquiries into his double life"
scoring what he considers the "frivol-
tiles of fame"
With thousands of dollars Of un-
spent royalties from his one novel
in the bank-the French edition alone
brought him 100000 francs-Celine
continues to work in the midst Of
the poverty he has known most Of
his life
Because he was so disguised by ex-
isting social conditions that he could
not sleep, he passed his nights for
several years writing his discomfort in
fiction form. Thus was born his book
1t was a slow and painful process
For that reason, perhaps. he dis
claims any intention or desire to sub
merge DR.. Destouches into M Celine
Although he is slowly scribbling a
second book, which he does not ex-
pect to finish before 1888, it probably
will be final sequel to Journey to
the End of the Night"
Like his fictional characters and
his patients, Celine-or Destouches-
has experienced nardships since he
was born in the Paris suburb of As
nieres in 1894. His mother was the
village milliner, his father a railroad

fed when the publisher telephoned
her, but she said her cleaning woman
had wrapped her manuscript. The
domestic, questioned, revealed she had
slipped into the bundle the manu-
script of a doctor in the same build
ing, for whom she also worked. The
doctor was Destouches.
The novel, published last year, was
an instant success in France. 1t also
had been sold to German publisher,
but Hitler came to power and the pub
Usher decided to leave the story alone.
The very elements that caused some
excitement among French critics-its
anti militarism, the sex passages and
the portrayal of poverty's seamiest
sides-were not in harmony, the pub
Usher decided, with the literary phil
osophy of the new Germany and con-
sequently might incur official dis
pleasure.
A German version eventually was
published, but in Czechoslovakia,
whence copies Of the book have been
crossing the German frontier.
Numerous excisions from the orig
inal French version we're required to
meet English censorship, but only
eight cuts we're found necessary for
the American edition.
Elizabeth Craig, to whom the book
is dedicated, is an American friend of
Celine.

REALISTIC STUDY
Of LIFE IS URGED
Historic Association Group
Suggests Instruction for
American Youths.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 15-American
youth ought to be taught that life is
no bed of roses, the Social Studies
Commission of the American Historical
Association suggests.
The program Of social science in
struction should provide for a realistic
study of the life, institutions and cul-
ture of cotemporary America" the
commission reported today, announce
ing the fruits Of five years investiga-
ton.
"In doing this 1t cannot omit study
Of the inef1ciences, the corruptions,
the tensions, the conflicts, the contra
dictions and the injustices of the age"
Such study should depart radically
from present teaching methods. the
commission recommended 1t should
begin literally in the back yard and
reach outward; it should start with
consideration Of the present and then
go backward in time.
In elementary schools, the COM
mission declared, the program should
start with teaching the pupil the
life, Institutions and geography of
the community before expanding to
the region and the Nation.
The central theme of secondary
school education under this plan would
be "the development of mankind and
the evolution of human culture, with
constant reference to the present and
to American civilization"
The commission advocated that this
program embrace both the junior and
senior divisions of the secondary
school and extend into the Junior
college.
The Carnegie Corporation, which
financed the studies, said today that
the investigation had cost approx

man who had been a teacher. They

Louis went to work in q ribbon
factory and subsequently tried dozen
other trades. He wanted to be a doc
tor. The war interrupted his plans
At the age of 20 he already had the
military medal for bravery and dis
taste for militarism.
A wound received in action got him
out of the army and the war. He
went to Africa as agent for a lumber
company. His memories of that ex-
perience are not pleasant.
Eventually he was able to complete
the medical studies which he had
begun before the war and returned to
Africa as an investigator of hygienic
conditions for the League Of Nations.
His work was financed by the Rookie
feller Foundation. That led to visit
to the United States, where he was
required to file his report.
The war, the colonies, the American
visit and Clichy are all in his novel,
which expounds Destouches' social
philosophy in terms as blunt and vio-
lent as his own manner
His sympathies are wholly with the
poor. And, curiouSly, the woman who
cleans the furnished room in Mont
martre, which he calls home, is
largely responsible for his literary dis
covery.
A publisher was undressing late
one night after an evening at the
theater when he happened to glance
at huge manuscript which had been
lying on his table several days. He
took the bundle to bed and became
so engrossed in the reading that

He looked for the name of the

Introduction and polonaise from
Christmas Eve" .Rimzky-K -Korsakov
The final numbers on the program
are the introduction and the polo
naise from Christmas Eve" by Rim
-Korsakov, the text of which is
, one OF GogolS (the father OF all the
Russian writers) short stories.
Where the introduction requires no
comment, 1t is interesting to know that
the polonaise Zone of the Oldest and
most stately dance-forms known in
music originally consisted of Polish
Christmas carols. Later on 1t became
the recognized professional music for
the entrance of guests at official func-
| tions at the Polish court, and from
there on because of It's rhythmic bril-
lance and the joyous martial strain
which always pervades it. popular at
all the courts in Europe.
In the polonaise on fairly sees the
glamorous procession of noble knights
in respondent armor, with their ladies,
passing by.
Often. as is the case in the polonaise
we are going to play today. the work
is divided in two distinct parts, which
might very we'll be called masculine
and feminine" the second consisting
of more lyric, singing melody. We
know that Chopin wrote the polo
naises par excellence" and affirmed
their popularity once and for always,
but the present one in its orchestral
arrangement by the colorful Rimzky
is certainly not one whit less COM
pelling.
