Christopher Morley whose
tones have been accepted for
some time as the outpourings of
a claSsicist who should not be
disregarded in the study Of con-
temporary literature has stepped
out of character.
BY no means has he stopped
writing classics. His new novel,
'"The Trojan Horse" is classic.
But, the word has changed in
meaning. This time he's writ
ten a WOW. A knockout. A
classic.
Specifically, it is light read
ing. Mr.. Morley attacks the
ancient story Of Troilus and
Cressida in a flippant style. It
is entirely different from the
approaches Of Chaucer, Boccacio
and Shakespeare who also used
this theme. The present tale
will attract those who have
missed the preceding vehicles
and may not at all please the
ones who have given thought
and study to the manner in
which the other masters pre-
sented the tale.

so easily explained. It tells the

Already his work has reached
some of the best-seller lists. It
is entitled, "a World History
of Art" It contains $50 pages
and 500 illustrations. Perhaps
the best way to explain the pur-
pose of the book is to quote Mr..
Cheney's opening paragraph in
his introduction, which says:
Throughout the writing Of
this book I have tried to keep in
mind the man who has heard
hopefully that art is important
and rewarding, who wants a per.
sonal approach to it. I have
pictured the average student or
adult reader as desiring not so
much facts as an introduction to
the experience of art.

at it."
And so Mr.. Cheney proceeds
to show the readers how they
can get at it. His work is well
authenticated and he has pro-
vided at the conclusion of the es-
says on the subjects he touches
a full appendix with his refer
ences well set out for the further
benefit Of the reader.

cipation in this day, opportunities are
presented for-inter-school relation
ship, community interest in recrea-
ton, interest in all around develop
ment, development of skill, coopera-
ton, ability to take orders, UNDER
standing of health rules, leadership
and courtesy.
The State Department of Educa-
ton now supervises physical educa-
ton directly, instead of through the
