So far, no plans have been made for similar matinees in Chicago.

"IWle Harry" might easily be subtitled. "The Patience of Job." This might seem sardonic commentary on the murderer of the title role who Isn't quite as patient as he looks to his neighbors in the Great Northern play, but It would chiefly concern the playwright, Thomas Job, now on leave to Hollywood from Carnegie Tech, where he teaches people to write plays. Mr. Job is a Welshman, described as stocky and bespectacled. After he arrived in this country as a teacher he wrote a play called Barchester Towers." It was staged at the Yale theater in 1935, and to his astonishment Ina Claire bought it.

It did her no good. But Job kept on writing "Rue with a Difference," "Dawn in Lyonesse" and, finally, "Uncle Harry." Producers rejected them unanimously, so that when Clifford Hayman wanted to stage Uncle Harry," Mr. Job felt uneasy about letting him waste his money. But patience, and playwriting, paid dividends. "Uncle Harry" turned out to be one of the best thrillers of the decade.

BLES by Paul W. Dempsev. Fe. rsed edition. Houghton MMin.

ti.50. Reviewed by Arthur Bergholz. 10,000 Garden Questions is a veritable treasure of practical infor. mation on every phase of gardening. The amateur as well' as the old timer will find it a ready reference to guide him thru his problems and settle issues about which he has been in doubt.

The material is so arranged that the user can easily find answers to his questions. The vast field of gar. dening is classified in 10 general sections: 1. Soils and Fertilizers. Ornamental Plants and Their Cul.

ture. 3. Ten Leading Garden Flowers. 4. Lawns and Turf Areas.

5. The Home Vegetable Garden. 6. Home-Grown Fruits. 7.

House Plants. 8. Plant Troubles and Their Control. 9. Regional Garden Prob.

lems. 10. Landscaping and Miscella-neous. Each of these sections is introduced by a composite treatment of the questions most generally asked on the basic principles involved in the subject. This not only gives orientation but affords the gardener a base from which to approach the specific questions which arise in the course of his experience.

Some idea of the comprehensiveness of this handy manual can be gained from the fact that it runs to over 1,400 pages, some 600,000 words, and every reference is thoroly keyed in a fine index. The reader will have no difficulty in finding specific in-, formation and wherever necessary the information supplemented by line drawings. It is a pleasure to welcome the revised edition of Grow Your Own Vegetables." The original edition which appeared in 1941 has proved a sound aid to its thousands of users. Dempsey has not only brought the text up to date but he has rewritten the chapter on storing vegetables and has added a new chapter on home preservation of vegetables, Including the most recent information on canning and deep freezing. The victory gardener will find this new material invaluable in gaining the full benefits ot his gardening effort.

H. Lanza. W. E. Hart is an adopted English name for an ex-German officer who, after 1938, went to England and eiv tered the British military service.

His present book is a series of sketches of seven German generals, and two admirals. No sources of information are cited. The preface states that the author relied upon personal contact either with the subjects portrayed, or with officers who did have such contacts. At most this would cover the period prior to when the author left Germany. As the biographies go down to 1944, the book is obviously based on secondary information.

It is nevertheless readable and entertaining. The first sketch is on Field Mar-shal von Fritsch, the organizer of German victories, who was relieved of his post as commander in chief in February, 1938 Hart considers that this general was an exceptional genius, who has had no equal since. He was succeeded by von Brau-chitsch who commanded the German armies during the campaigns in Poland and France; and in Russia until November, 1941. Pointedly and openly disagreeing with Hitler as to whether an attack on Moscow should, or should not, be made, he retired from active duty. He was succeeded by von Rund-stedt, who extricated the German armies from the mess around Moscow.

Hart considers von Rundstedt to be the real genius left in the German army, altho not in the class with von Fritsch. He has been in command in West Europe for the last two years, waiting to fight off the allied invasion. Von Keitel and Rommel are described as inferior generals, who have risen to high posts thru favoritism. There will be disagreement as to this. Von Milch is admittedly a great organizer of air forces.

Not as much can be said of the Admirals Doenitz and Raeder on naval matters, nor on Field Marshal von Bock, who did not do any too well in Russia. As a popular work this book will fill a popular need regarding information on leading Germans now leading their forces.
