These are just q sprinkling OF the
arresting topics which Professor
Jastrow discusses In this every
mans guide to every day psychol-
ogy, which strips the tenets OF
sound Psychological theory to an
understandable bases.
DIT. Fastrow brings to this popu-
lar exposition a ripe authority. Fcr
more than thirty years he was Pro-
fessor Of Psychology In the Univer-
sity Of Wisconsin, has been presi-
dent of the American Psychological
Association and In addition to writ
ing many distinguished works on
psychology, conducts q daily col
umn on psychological problems IN
the New York Evening Post and
other newspapers.
oh, Promise Me-Kenneth Hot
an. This is a companion book to
Kenneth Horan's inimitaIble RE
member the Day." which was so
widely acclaimed for its extra or
binary charm and ironic wit, and
which William McFee called real
Americana in a field Of synthetic
performers"
Oh, Promise Me continues the
fortunes Of the redoubtable Ingham
family after Pappa has been elect
ed to Congress. The aristocratic lit
tie family of Eastmeadow, Michi-
gan, has now become elevated to
social heights scarcely dreamed of
in the town. The life of Mamma
and Pappa is complicated by many
things, beginning with the myster-
ious disappearance of that engag-
ing trusty, Cot Noble, Of whom all
but the Inghams believe "once a
criminal always a criminal
through an old-fashioned Spring
housekeeping described with a
wealth of rocco detail; to Aunt
Melleny's fourth trip to the altar,
with Mr.. Alonzo Leap, a spectacu-
lar ceremony with exquisite over
tones supplied by the enraptured
French governess who plays the
'Marseillaise" instead Of the We'd
ding March.
Because Kenneth Koran has an
amazing memory for incident and
detail, Oh Promise Me differs In
exactly the right degree from IRE
member the Day." while suffused
with the same irresistible humor,
the same quaint scenery and gaudy
decor. the same charm and delight.

Except for the few pictures
taken by the Reds themselves
which have never been available
for publication, these are the only
pictures ever taken of the Chinese
Red Army, Of life in the Soviet dis
tricts, and of Red political and
military leaders. The Kuomintang
armies have been fighting with the
Communist armies Of China ever
since 1927. Millions Of words have
been written about these wars, but
no one, Chinese or foreign, has
actually entered Red territory,
visited Red leaders, investigated
Soviet life, and returned to write
the story. ALI other accounts are

da or on the secret information
from Communist sources which
could not be verified by any objec-
tive observer. For nine years there

districts in China by the surround

first person to have broken this
