ed all ofthe members to attend the
meeting (of the Inter-County Feder-

knop on Thursday. Fifteen mem-
bers responded to roll call with a
current event topic.
A most interesting review of the
book “Black Narcissus,” by Runer
Godden, was presented by Mrs, F.
F. Parrish. “How To Review a
Book” was the subject of an inter-
esting and instructive discussion by
Mrs. S. B. Harbison. Quoting from
Dr. Cauley. she said: “Good review-
ing is good thinking plus good feel-
ing plus good speaking. It is not a
variation played upon an author’.-1
theme. It is not time saving. It
is not writing up or writing down.
It is a shrewd and feeling statement,
backed by knowledge, pointed by ob-
servation, inspired by candor, and
warned by genuine interest of what
a book is worth—worth for us, worth
as science, and worth as literature.
A short discussion of' parliamen-

Culture in West Texas
Graham and ita Fine Aria Forum are receiving recog-
nition far and near, and even rated editorial comment in
the evening edition of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on
October 23. The editorial, captioned "Culture in West
Texas,” waa as follow?: i
“Rapid material development and population growtjj
in Texas haa tended, perhapa, to obacure the fact that cor-
reaponding progreaa haa been made in that section to-
ward the goal of better living aa well aa toward the ob-
jectives of making a better living.
“For the last twenty years, schools and colleges have
sprung up in West Texas at a rate of increase higher than
in other portions of the State. Along with the provision
yf better educational facilities, the flow of wealth and
people into West Texas haa served to stimulate cultural
interests there. A case in point la the town of Graham,
which last Spring organised ita Fine Arts Forum and
this season is to have under forum auspices a series of
musical concerts featuring attractions of national impor-
tance. Graham will be the smallest Texas city which one
of the attractions, the Don Cossack Chorus, will vifit this
year. It should be mentioned that Graham previously has
provided a memorial auditorium adequate for such ap-
pearances.
“Many other illustrations could be cited in addition to
this one. It would be profitable for some West Texas col-
I
lege to make a survey of literary Interests in that portion
the 8tate as a barometer of the cultural level—what
magazines and books West Texans are reading. Such a
social study should explode thoroughly the fallacy that
West Texas is a frontier area that confines Ita energies
alone to material development.”
