But the telephone Bell invented was not a very practical thing. It transmitted sound all right, it fiirly reeked with sound, but you had to be very alert, to make out what the words were.

Hut beyond that, Theodore Roosevelt has remained a major enigma, his entire life marked by enormous psychological and political contradictions. He has been denounced as a dangerous authoritarian, dismissed as a noisy buffoon, and praised as a progressive, scientific intellectual.

He has been claimed as a "personal" hero by both arch-conservatives and radical social reformers, by interventionists and isolationists, by clergymen and big-game hunters. But now, Mr. Harbaugh. distinguished American historian, goes behind the flashing grin, and takes the full measure of the man public and private. His controversial book is a complete reappraisal of TR his formative years his meteoric rise from police commissioner to president his petty feuds and his epochal battles.

The word is out that if you liked Exodus und admire Ernest Hemingway, you should read Burnt Offering, an exciting novel of modern-day Israel. The story concerns itself with an idealistic Brooklyn Jew and an American Catholic explosives expert ho join forces with an embittered Israeli commander in a desperate fight to save the latter's kibbutz from the Arabs. It is high-spirited adventure intermixed with entrancing drama. One Source For All Your Needs!
