"There is urgent need for a thoroughly co- ordinated over-all plan for the utilization of the colleges and universities of the country in the specific training of men destined for the armed forces of the nation. Competitive bidding for college students by the different branches of the service cannot possibly be defended. But the elimination, now assured, of this ob- jectionable competition is not enough. In the present crisis, higher education needs to be completely articulated with specific training for war service.

The man can, and does, drive a manure-spreader with dignity and plow a straight furrow without missing a wild goose, a meadow-lark, or a white cloud in the skies above him. Readers of "Now In My Time!" will find in DIRT ROADS TO STONE- POSTS a collection of Mr. Berry's more noteworthy contributions to other publications (with some new ones appearing here for the first time) which Morris Bishop, in his Introduction, pronounces "pure gems." It's the smell of the land! It's Rym! It's the spirit of the hills that lie near enough to hear the Bells of Cornell! The Merry Old Mobίles~by Larry Freeman, PhD 2.50 pages, 6 x 9, $5 postpaid ERE is a book that takes you miles away from today's stream- H lined necessity, back to the time when all men were assumed to be master roadside mechanics and all women too delicate to drive. Fifty fabulous years have passed since the advent of the automobile. Quite fittingly, the changes it has wrought in the American Scene are portrayed by one of the country's leading psychologists and col- lectors.

Moreover, indexes to each volume were kept by handwritten notation, in both pencil and ink, seldom in alphabetical order, and with numerous addenda and instances of inserted or corrected text. Researchers should exercise special and unusual latitude in an attempt to gather all the citations for a specific name. There are a number of variant patterns, but the most consistent apply to abbreviated versions of the name of the same person. "Cunningham, ~riggs"may be the same as "Cunningham, B." I,Dann, H. E ." may be the same as "Dann, H. H." (due to blurred or illegible handwriting). "Campbell, E. P." may be the same as "Campbell, President" (or Senator, Governor, Secretary, etc.). In many cases the index has knowingly been recreated literally from the original volume indexes with the mistakes intact to avoid an even more confusing, erroneous and unconfirmable interpretation.

    ’ Series editor: John C. Seitz, Associate Professor, Theology Department, Fordham University; Associate Director for Lincoln Center, Curran Center for American Catholic Studies This series aims to contribute to the growing eld of Catholic studies through the publication of books devoted to the historical and cultural study of Catholic practice in North America, from the colonial period to the present. As the term “practice” suggests, the series springs from a pressing need in the study of American Catholicism for empirical investigations and creative explorations and analyses of the contours of Catholic experience. In seeking to provide more comprehensive maps of Catholic practice, this series is committed to publishing works from diverse American locales, including urban, suburban, and rural settings; ethnic, postethnic, and transnational contexts; private and public sites; and seats of power as well as the margins.

DUNN PHILADELPHIA,PA. How did I make the transition from a Teachers' College to the life insurance business? Here is about how it happened. I waved a fond farewell to Moorhead State Teachers' College, Minnesota, in the spring of 1941, and settled down to do some serious thinking concerning my future. Uncle Sam.supplied some of the answers in September of that year, and for the next five years the Army Air Corps was my boss, and my address was a succession of Army Air Bases and A.P.O. numbers, which stretched from Colorado to Scotland, England, Africa, Italy and Corsica. For two of these years it was my good fortune to be associ- ated with a brother officer, MCapfl Haines, in civilian life a partner in New England Mutual's Philadelphia General Agency, Moore and Haines. He, my wife—a U. S. Army nurse, whom I married in Africa—and I spent long hours discussing life insur- ance and its possibilities as a career for me. It offered all of the things that I had ever hoped for in business: independence, unlimited income possibilities and, most of all, a never-ending challenge to my ability in a field where limits do not exist, excepting as I alone set them. Before I had finished my terminal leave, I was studying for my Pennsylvania State Insurance examination, and was making field trips with my friend from overseas.
