  • A Reader's Shelf
    2 3 A READER’S SHELF Compiled by J. L. HERRERA 4 To the Memory of Michele Turner Oral historian, writer, activist, special person And with Special Thanks to Bronwen Meredith, Madge Portwin, Ken Herrera, Penny Parish, Joyce Keam, David Goodrick and Rob Rands Introduction It took nearly five years to be borne in on me that publishers simply weren’t very interested in my views on books. Strictly speaking, there is no reason why they should be. Suburban housewives occasionally acquire a moment of fame—but very rarely for their views on books. I wrote A Writer’s Calendar principally for my mother—though, sadly, she died only days before the bound manuscript reached her—and A Book Circle began as the overflow from the first book. But this book, though it too is partly overflow, is simply a labour of love, a place to let off steam, pages to explore ideas ... It is mine and if anyone else should wish to browse in it, then they must excuse a certain degree of self-indulgence. Along the way I have come upon various bits of information which would have fitted nicely into the earlier books; such as Vance Palmer’s memories of meeting the notorious Frank Harris or this little bit on how Brian O’Nolan came to use the name Myles na Gopaleen, ‘O’Nolan borrowed the name from a character in Gerald Griffin’s novel, The Collegians (1829). It means Myles of the ponies’. But it is rather like writing a biography; at some point you have to say ‘finis’ even though new and fascinating information is almost certainly still out there for the collecting.

It is the end of twelve of the happiest years of our lives, of daily renewals of friendships long since established, of many monstrous things now sud­ denly grown trivial, of something we have too often considered busy work with words and figures, and of a childish heaven from which we have peered fearfully out the corners of our eyes at the great world into which we are now catapulted. More than being an ending, graduation is a beginning. We are enter­ ing into new experiences, new interests, and new trials; replacing high school with institutions of higher learning, the business world, and the armed services; assuming the financial, social, and political responsibilities that fall upon every adult in a democratic society.

    THE TENNESSEE GUARD CREED I am a State Guard Soldier. I am a member of the State Guard Military—a protector of the greatest state on earth. Because I am proud of the uniform I wear, I will always act in ways creditable to the military service and the state it is sworn to guard. I am proud of my own organization .I will do all I can to make it the finest unit of the Military. I will be loyal to those under whom I serve. I will do my full part to carry out orders and instructions given my unit or me. As a soldier, I realize that I am a member of a time-honored profession—that I am doing my share to keep alive the principles of freedom for which my state stands. No matter what situation I am in, I will never do anything, for pleasure, profit, or personal safety, which will disgrace my uniform, my unit, or my state. I will use every means I have, even beyond the line of duty, to restrain my military comrades from actions disgraceful to themselves and the uniform. I am proud of my state and its flag. I will try to make the people of this nation proud of the service I represent, for I am a Tennessee State Guard Soldier. 2 TNSG Pam 600-4 MILITARY DEPARTMENT OF TENNESSEE HEADQUARTERS TENNESSEE STATE GUARD NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE PERSONNEL—GENERAL SOLDIER'S HANDBOOK Page PREFACE...........................................................6 CHAPTER 1.
