White Coward -McCann, $3). CURRENT STUFF. If you have no good poetry anthology around the house, put 'The Viking Book of Poetry" edited by Richard Aldington (Viking, $3.50) within easy reach. In relation to the world today, make it possible for your young people to read William Shirer's "Berlin Diary" (Knopf, $3), Vir ginia Cowles' "Looking for Trou ble" (Harper, $3), Leland Stowe's "No Other Road to Freedom" (Knopf. $3) or Pierre van Paas- sens "This Day Alone" (Dial.

VARIETY. And here are a few adult books of widely varied interest you might well offer to your children: "Shake Hands With the Dragon" (it's about New York's Chinatown) by Carl Glick (Whittlesey, $2.75) "Four Years in Paradise" (it's more about the Martin Johnsons in Africa) by Osa Johnson (Lippincott, "Big Family" (the title Is self-explanatory) by Bellamy Partridge (Whittlesey. "My Friend Flicka" (about a boy and his horse) by Mary O'Hara (Lippincott, "No Life for a Lady" (grand stuff about earlier days in the southwest) by Agnes Morely Cleaveland (Houghton Mifflin, $3). Babe, Paul Bunyan's Blue Ox. As Drawn by Rockwell Kent.

The above illustration is one of 24 full-page drawings (and numerous smaller ones) by Rockwell Kent in a new edition of Esther Shephard's version of the lumberjack's giant, "Paul Bunyan" (Harcourt, Brace, Most boys and girls will love it. By Elizabeth Clarkson Zwart. FROM the age of 10 on sometimes younger many children want to extend their reading to the books their parents are enjoying. Frequently you will find that such books vill start a reading habit which juvenile books have failed to stimulate. Here is a list of adult books you might well give your older children to read: ANTHOIXGIES.

In "Great Short Novels" (edited by Edward Weeks. Doubleday, $3). the children will find short novels by Conrad Richter, John Galsworthy. Jean Kenyon MacKenzie, R. H.

Mottram. Joseph Conrad. Laurence St erne, DuBose Heyward, John Steinbeck, Herman Melville, Virginia Woolf. Henry James, and Thornton Wilder. While no young person is apt to enjoy all the- novel In this anthology, there I something for almost any taste.

Another book older children will enjoy in part, if not in its entirety Is Clifton Fadiman's anthology, Reading I've Liked" (Simon Schuster, $3). And many of them A Unique Juvenile GEORGE WASHINGTON'S WORLD: By Genevieve Foster. Scribner. $2.75. A REMARKABLE and distin- J- guished book for children of almost all ages is "George Washington's World." The author divides Washington's life into six parts when he was a boy, soldier, father, commander, plain citizen, and president and then tells about other personalities who were growing up and doing things in other countries around the world as our own country matured.

There are stories about Daniel Boone. Benjamin Franklin, Fred-enck the Great. Catherine the Great. Voltaire, Ch'ien Lung, William Pitt, Pontiac, Thomas Jefferson, James Watt, James Cook, Marie Antoinette, the discovery of oxygen, the first balloon ascension, the unearthing of Pompeii, the division of Poland, Napoleon's birth, Lafayette, Mozart, and many ether personalities and events. The personalities grow up In relation to the way Washington grows up and the child gets the real related picture of world happenings in the 18th century a thing many a parent is still confused about.

The book is copiously and graphically illustrated. It can not be too highly recommended, and when you see it you'll hope Miss Foster will do the same thing for other centuries. E.C.Z. Children's Selected Books Lists to Guide, Christmas Shopping amma Chapter Beta Sigma Phi. 7:45 p.

AUTHORS and artists reflect the spirit of the time in which they live, so it does not seem strange to find subjects of growing interest to adults emphasized in this year's books for children. Religion, for instance, and the history and activities of our United States are the subjects of many of the children's books on the excellent fall lists. GIFT GUIDE To choose a guide list for Christmas gifts among the new juveniles is difficult this year because of their uniform excellence in text and illustration. But here is such a list, arranged in age groups which are merely suggestive, as it is impossible to place a book in any hard and fast age limit. TWO TO FIVE.

Sue, an old Cock ney woman who had had three husbands and was hoping to meet the second one in heaven, became her companion in hovering. Attending her own funeral, Sophia was pleased to see so many people grieve for her. She was pleased too, to see Ann making plans at the funeral for her wedding. Geoffrey was doing his best to prevent the marriage In order to have Ann keep house for him. Terrified that he would succeed, Sophia exerted herself one last time to Influence her family.

Then she felt free at last to seek her heavenly abode. This is a fresh and original novel. Though there is absolute ly no action to help, it is cleverly sustained throughout. Its style is pleasingly dry and witty. ert Lawson.
