CONTENTS CAVALCADE DESIGN FOR LIVING BITTER SWEET PRIVATE LIVES HAY FEVER THE VORTEX POST MORTEMS PLAY PARADE: SEVEN PLAYS by NOEL COWARD Retail Price $3.50 —if you join the Book-of- the-Month Club...you do not pay any fixed sum per year as a member, nor do you have to take a book every month HE book offered here is an excellent example of the valuable book-dividends AL distributed among Book-of-the-Month Club members. We suggest that you send the coupon below for a booklet outlining the many things the Club is now able to do for book-readers, and explaining how it operates. Are you aware, for instance, that as a member you are never obliged to take the specific book-of-the- month chosen by the judges? You may buy it or not, as you please, after reading the judges’ pre-publication report about it. And what do you pay? Simply the regular retail price of such books as you decide to take. What then are the advantages of belonging? They are many, and striking. First, book-dividends: for every dollar its mem- bers spend on books they receive back on the average over 50% in the form of free books. Second, without a penny of expense, through the reports of the judges you are kept completely informed about all the important new books, so that you can choose among them with discrimination, instead of having to rely upon adver- tising and hearsay. There are several other advantages, not readily measurable in money, that can- not be outlined here for lack of space. Surely, within the next year, the distin- guished judges of the Club will choose as the book-of.the-month or recommend as alternates, at least a few books that you will be very anxious to read and which you will buy anyway. Why not—by joining the Club—make sure you get thesc instead of missing them, which so often happens; get the really substantial advantages the Club affords (such as the book-dividends mentioned, if nothing else), and at the same time get a copy of PLAY PARADE, free.
