next week, to see R. C. SHERIFF'S world-famous play "JOURNEY'S END"
read his wonderful novel "Journey's End" which is founded on the play. This remarkable book is bound to survive as a major document in war literature. The war scenes have the simplicity, nobility and truth of the corresponding scenes in the play. It is a novel that is in every line peculiarly English-England's story for fature generations, no less, of heroism than of horror.
