Today's Best Sellers

Advertising buildup plays a major
role in the history of any best
seller, and book club backing not
only sells the book to many nom
members, but also creates demand
for it at the Public Library. Dur
ing the current year Elizabeth
Goudge,s Green Dolphin Street"
Rosamond Lehmann's Ballad and
the Source" and The Captain From
CASTLE" by Samuel Shellabarger
have been instances of volumes ben
efiting from this type of promotion.
The moving pictures, too, have
great influence. An early 10th CEN
tury classic, like Emily Bronte's
"Wuthering Heights" comes again
into popularity, and recent novel,
like Marcia Davenport's Valley Of
Decision" can stage quick come
back to best seller" rating when
republicized on the screen.
Contrary to the saying that a
prophet is without honor in his
own country local authors are pop
ular in Washington. At the George
