A “Realm of the Air him to set up as an amateur w prophet is doomed to disappointment. All the popular methods of predicting | the sort of winter that is coming by the fur of animals, the husks on the | corn, the corn on the toe, or the squir- rel hoarding up a season's food, Mr. Talman_ classifies as 1 old fish- wife methods. All the weather men meteorologists to yo do is fore cast weather by telegraph reports, which tell where the storms are blow- ing and in what direction they moving and how fast. Even tl ¢ development by Mme. Na can shunt this information into use- lessness. Storm forecasts seem to work better on lake or ocean. Tell the truth, however, none of the long-dis- tance forecasts based on sun spots or the moon have stood the test of time In other words, only God can make and time a storm. However, Mr. Talman’s book is a swell source of weatherology. Did vou know that the “Year of the Big Wind" wasn't the year Babe Ruth fanned nineteen ti by Hal (?) Pruett but was 1839. 1 the blow ilmost laid Ireland flat? Did you know of winds that were historic, changing course of history ev up to wrecking navies? It in- terest the drys, too, to know that six- teen million gallons of water and snow fall on the earth every minute. | In other words, don't you know noth- in’? Well, then, here's the book for you. It'll tell all. Avrivn Mrexen’s “Strange Ca- 4% bers” contains a gigolo, but since he is not a real forget this shortcoming : segest that you read it. You will find it fair fare about what they call European sophisticated society and the comedy of manners that always takes place when sophisticated society gets to uether. Don’t ask us to e: n what we mean by that, but the next time you see a fat, rich old lady, ten to one she'll be reading “Ten Days’ Wonder.” It's | that kind of a book. It tells of how | love comes to a mother and her daugh- ter, love for men out of their class, one higher, the other lower. very nice social comedy to i is typically well-done English writing of the sort. Read at your own risk, that is, of course, unless you're a fat, rich old lady. Then waddle to it and | gobble it up. —Tev Suan “Keep the ke to your city,” cried the cele- brated man. “I'm far too comfortable on the New North Coast Limited.” Northern Pacific—Places West OSSIBLY you hold the thought of e Western Holiday.
