But, being unusually inclined last night to follow others’ suggestions, I couldn’t help myself. Thus, 1 find myself poised at my type writer, anxiously awaiting the fin ish of this book review. The first book upon which I would like to comment is a book on etiquette by “one of the nation’s foremost authorities on manners— something 1 realize that I am not too concerned with.” Pretty good would be my idea of it. I am now an “enlightened gentleman.” But, passing on to other mat ters, and passing on my comments to our fan in Houston, the other book calls my attention. For the benefit of the “young’un” there, here are a few timely comments on “A Kid’s Garden of Verse.” The first poem, as I remember, was Willie Worstworth’s “Ode— Intimidations of Immorality from Recollections of Children.” I think it concerns progress, the growth of the poet’s mind toward a feel ing of sublimity. What it all adds up to is an inferiority complex. Also included in the collection is Sammy T. Cougaridge’s “To A Young Ass.” The feeling of this poeiu is well summed up in its opening lines: “Poor little Fool of an oppressed race!” And in closing, may I mention Jimmy Russell Low-well’s poem, “Not Only During Our Infancy.” What I got out of this is that some fancies of young minds hang on when the infants are grown to “kids.” Whal’s Cooking Meetings for tonight are as fol lows: 7:30 Corpus Christi Hometown Club; 208 Academic; please come.
