Library Notes

The new installment of books
for the International Mind Al
cove in Big Horn County Ii
brary recently arrived and are
now ready for circulation. They
all have to do with present
world conditions, although none
deals directly with the tragedy
of the war. They hold out hope
for the future and no one can
read them without a renewed
sense of responsibility and un-
derstanding.
Gallagher - Paddy the
Cope" This title is very mis-
leading. We are apt to over
look the final letter of the last
word and think it is a detec-
tive story. Far from it! First of
all, it is a most human story
of life in Fire Greland) dur
ing the last forty years, setting
forth the incredible conditions
under which the Irish of the
past generation grew up. The
fact that in the midst of at
fectionate family relationships
it was taken for granted that
boys of ten should go out into
servitude to help support the
family, throws considerable
light upon the distressing living
conditions of that period. Sec
ondly, the book is an inspiring
story of the development of the
cooperative movement in a re-
mote section of Ireland and It's
final success. The Cope" OF
the title is merely the abbrevi-
ated title of a cooperative wor-
ker and fighter. The introduce
ton by Dorothy Garfield Fish
er points up the story and gives
hope of new ways of living not
only in Fire, but throughout the
world.
Masoni - Our India" This
book deals with another part OF
the British Empire. World at
tention has been drawn to In
dia in these tragic times be-
cause of its attitude toward Bri-
tain and the war in which its
domestic problems play an i'm
portant part. The author, him
self an Indian holding a high
position of influence in his
country, sets forth conditions
as they now exist in a surpriS-
ingly fair and balanced account.
He deals with problems in India
which concern the people and
their hope of better Living and
growth. Why are there families
in India? What about the far
ming situation, and cattle and
crops? These questions and
many others are answered in
this book, which is strikingly
illustrated with drawings and
charts and written in a simple
and vivid style. =.
Nehru - Toward Freedom"
Following Immediately upon the
book reviewed above, comes this
remarkable biography of one OF
midas outstanding political
leaders. First of all it should
be noted that the book is a
masterpiece of literature. 1t
would be worth reading if only
for its beauty of style and ex-
preston. But it is far more than
that. It IS the story of a man
who has been faithful to his
ideals, whether we agree with
them or not - in the face OF
persecution and imprisonment
and who sets forth his case in
an intimate and moving record
which is more possible for an
oriental than for a western au-
thor. It is as fair a presentation
of the case for India as has
