14 THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY. MARCH 23, 1923 2531b.: Public Library. News and Reviews Sandburg ........ Rootabaga stories. This latest book of Carl Sandburg's is quite unlike anything we have ever seen. One can hardly describe it, except to say that it is a collec- tion of ultra modern stories, ostensi- bly written for children, but just as interesting to adults. The book is to literature what the cubist picture is to art. Johnston ....................... *f^"" In writing the story of Christopher Columbus in "1492". Miss Johnston has given an artistic interpretation of a national hero that posterity accepts as final, says The Literary Review. In this tale she found the ideal medium for her convictions and her art . . • Laboring under the handicap of tell- ing a story partly known to all the world, she. like the epic poets, in- fuses so much of dramatic interest, so much of striking character portrayal, so much of profound evaluation of hu- man impluses. actions ad desires, that we absorb with avidity and pleasure all she sets down before us. O'Brien ............... Trodden Gold For his first novel Mr. O'Brien has chosen a study of contemporary so- ciety through the medium of the lives of two sisters, daughters of a worldly mother, who are brought up faithfully according to her creed that happiness is to be found through riches, says The LiteVary Review . . .It is a novel obviously of a purpose, and its preachment is one of the oldest known to manâ€"that the mere posses- sion- of wealth has little or nothing to do with happiness . . .Mr. O'Brien has succeeded in a large measure both in telling a story skillfully and in writing a homily far less dull than many heard from pulpits on Sunday mornings . . .The story ends with a perfect working-out of Mr. O'Brien's thesisâ€"almost too perfect . . .'Trodden Gold," however, in "spite ^f"weak moments7~is anything but a mediocre novel. Mansfield .......................Bliss This is a collection of short stor- ies of one of England's contemporary writers, whose untimely death a few weeks ago deprived_lh£-WQrld-of s*"r- ies of rare charm and insight. Critics place Katharine Mansfield in the first rank as a short story writer, who com- bined a psychology that rings true with a very finished technique. My Chinese................Marriage This is a true story of the marriage of an American girl and a Chinese student. It gives an account of Chi- nese life and feeling of today that is a reve'ation. and that shoujd do much to promote a more friendly feeling be- tween the two countries. No one has written of China in just the way that this girl who, through her love for her husband, grew to love the coun- try almost as though it were her own. It is one of the most remarkable books of recent years.

"Since I discovered Cantilever Shoes, I prefer to walk. You've seen children run just because they were too vigorous and happy to move slow- ly. Cantilevers brought back to me that joy in walking." Ordinary shoes, with a rigid strip of steel hidden in the shank, bind the muscles and restrict the nioyemenl oTThe foot scTthat much oTThenat- ural grace and freedom of walking is gone. But the Cantilever Shoe has a flexible shank. It bends WITH the foot. It encourages the free, grace- ful movement of the foot. It strengthens the arch. The last is sensible and becoming. It follows the oiitline of the foot, and so gives plenty of room for the toes. The natural inner sole line permits foot to lie in a healthy position, with the toes pointing comfortably straight ahead. This feature, and the set of the smart, medium heel, encourage correct posture. For the joy of comfortable walking try a pair of Cantilevers this week.
