Gustav Mahler lives primarily through his nine symphonies, but he also wrote songs and one great vocal work DAS LIED von der BRIDE (The Song of the Earth) |, which is in effect symphony with tenor and contralto solos. This will be the featured number number o1 next Tuesday evenings concert of recorded music at the Base Ii. brary. Mahler, came of peasant stock, and showing an early apti. tude for music, he developed an enormous technique, both as com, poser and as a conductor. DAS LIED von der BRIDE is based on seven old Chinese poems and was not performed until 1911, more than six months after the com- poser's death. It is therefore, mod. ern in tone, unusual in content but it is worthily honored by sincere music lovers.
 The program will be introduced by the Brahms Variations on a Theme, by Haydn, a work that some have pronounced his most consistently successful. He found the theme in some recently un- earthed manuscript material-it is an attractive one, square and wig orous, and with it Brahms sets the orchestra ablaze in manner quite unusual to him.

BaCnlng Beacn, RlVeTSlu0 Farki baseball games, summer furloughs, and the belles of surrounding towns. But competition is vital to the growth and enterprise of any orga1czation and we accept the challenge it brings us. For we have our attractions too-like the above, we offer an escape from everyday routine, home away from home, a place where you can meet old friends and make new acquaintance es-through BOOKS.
 Fifteen hundred Bradley G.I.s can't be wrong. That's the number of men who used the facilities of the Base Library last month. And between them they read over eight hundred and fifty books! So, don your sun-tans and stop in at the Base Library for a look around.
 What are some of the books most in demand? There's THE LOST WEEKEND, by Charles Jackson, five days out of a mans life, one of the strangest, most remarkable narratives ever written. And there's SHORE LEAVE, by Fred eric Wakeman, not pretty" novel but it's real! Readers of DYNAS- TY OF DEATH, by Taylor Cald- well are following the famous Bouchard dynasty in her newest novel, THE FINAL HOUR, dra- matic, timely and emotional drama of pre-war international intrigue. Sh-h-h we have STRANG E FRUIT, by Lillian Smith, the book that is running away with it's pub- fishers paper reserve into it's hun- dred-thousandth printing. You might as we'll add your name to the reserves on that for you'll hear it discussed at Babb's, Riverside, and the livingrooms of above-mention- ed belles.
 Non-fction too is in demand. Gene Fowler's biography of John Barrymore GOOD NIGHT, SWEET PRINCE, heads our "best-seller" list with UNDERCOVER, by John Carlson close runner-up. An al- bum cartoons which has fighting men and civilians chuckling is PRIVATE BREGER'S WAR, the latest adventures of this brash non-conforming private.
 Personal narratives from the war-fronts are always popular. Of these THEY SHALL NOT SLEEP, by Leland Stowe, and TARAWA, by Robert Sherrod are the newest additions to the library shelves. The former is a great reporters uncensored report on the war in Burma, India, China and Russia. The title of the latter is self-ex- planatory, and it is another super lative job of reporting.
 We are introducing a new fea- ture in this weeks column. In keep ing with our slogan "A BOOK FOR EACH MANS INTEREST" we are following Mahomet's advice, eff the hills won't come to Mahomet, Ma homet will come to the hills," via the Library column. Therefore, 'TENSHUN TO THE FOLLOW ING:
 For Section A: A Complete Book of Ballets, by Cyril Beaumont.
 For S/Sgt. Evans, last weeks featured Non Com: Pm Gonna be Father, by Bob Dunne (with a lit tie assistance from his wife).
 For SISgt. Wright who wants to beat S/Sgt. Caul at pool: Bill lizards as it should be played, by Willie Hoppe.
 For Pvt. Parsons, of Ordnance, a reminder that the Base Library is right in his own back yard, and an AR forbids fines for overdue books, why travel to Hartford?

James Street, author of "Tap Roots," offers another wonderful story in By Valour and Arms, :" based on unorthodox history. This is the bloody, lusty saga of the ghost ship, Arkansas, whose guns keep blazing though no men are aboard her. This is not the Civil War of which one reads in school books-it is rougher, more vivid, more understandable. An extraor- dinary cast of characters carries out the action.

HOLD YOUR FIRE FOR THE ENEMY

Fire losses in critical War De partment installations during the first quarter of 1944 have exceeded the entire loss for 1943. The first six months of this year show that losses have increased seven and one-half times over those for the same period, last year.
 The expression Fire and Sword" has always been symbolic of War. While the sword has be- come outmoded as an offensive weapon, fire in it's proper place, namely, the incendiary bomb and flame thrower, has reached top inn portance in wiping out enemy strength both on the firing line and in industrial centers
 Fire, on our home front, has been of great assistance to the enemy through losses in strategic materials and production facilities. Probably the greatest single cause fthese fires has been careless handling of smoking materials.
 Fire Prevention Week, October 8-14 inclusive, sponsored by the National Fire Protection Associa- tion, and supported by proclama- tion of the President of the United States and governors of individual States, is a campaign to reduce fire losses and increase our fire power. The lessons learned during this coming week should be put into practice during the entire year.
 Prevent fires by:
 1. Elimination of carele S
 smoking habits.
 2. Good housekeeping h a b s
 through proper disposition of
 waste materials.
 3. Safe handling of f1ammable
 liquids and materials, partic-
 ularly gasoline.
 In case of Fire:
 1. Call the Fire Department
 from the nearest alarm box or
 dial 248.
 2. Use available hand extinguish-
 CTS.
 3. Direct the fire apparatus to
 the scene.
 4. Have empty extinguishers fill
 ed immediately.

 If you know what is meant by a symphony, symphonic poem, concerto, an overture or a suite, you will have no difficulty in fol- lowing the details of any indivi- dual piece of music. Recognition of the outstanding themes or tunes is all-important; the rest is largely a matter of repeated hearings, leading gradually toward complete knowledge and appreciation.
 For next Tuesdays concert we have chosen two concerti, two sym phonic poems, one vocal album, and one album of piano compost tions, each an excellent example of the form under which they fall. Bring along your letters to answer, bring along your pipe, in fact, bring along your wife-and spend a quiet evening at the Base Libra ry, relaxing to the strains of the worlds best music.
 The program is as follows:

Three lives took unexpected turns when slow-witted William, leading character in Green Dol phin Street," by Elizabeth Goudge, proposed by letter and wrote Mari anne when he meant Marguerite. Against unfamiliar and romantic settings in the Channel islands and the wilds of New Zealand, with an eye toward Hollywood, Miss Goudge has woven a picturesque story around this unusual plot. That it scores a hit is evident in that it not only won the first of the Metro Goldwyn-Mayer annual fiction awards, but was made the September choice of the Literary Guild.

HIGH LINKS AND SUDDEN DEATH IN HOLLYWOOD

Slip into your straight jacket and cop gander at the most outrageous characters you've ever met (unless you too have lived in Southern California; The murderer is as elusive as the characters are zany, and the pace is as fast as the chuckles are ire quent. Hecht scores again! This time with the kind of novel only he could have written.

For fiction with psychological overtones, sans sugar-coating, "No Mortal Fire" by Elsa Valentine, is bell-ringer. She-devil Augusta, a natural-born Nazi right down to her chromosomes, dominates it's pages. Augusta's contempt for other races and even for her own family is a sort of allegory, show ing how the German mind works, not in things like world politics and war, but in the drama of ev- cry day life.
