...this great chapter, Mann makes a flat denial of those stream-of-consciousness subtleties whereby James Joyce put to shame all "psychological" fiction before and since Ulysses. Mann's own model, down to the very bumpiness and cantankerousness of the style, is the dramatic monologue as developed by Browning. Many of his gripes, grouchings and mph-mph mannerisms are hardly superior to those of a young "character" actor playing an old man. Between these strict archaic boundaries he constructs a complexity of invention, scholarly research, literary criticism, topical satire, prophecy, pure poetry. In every refraction, like the turnings...
Into Fort Knox, Ky., and Fort Benning, Ga., last week poured a stream of new faces. They were crack officers, detailed in a great batch of Army orders to join the new Armored Force. In officers' conferences the new force's commander, Brigadier General Adna Romanza Chaffee, leather-faced son of the late onetime Chief of Staff, Lieut. General Adna R. Chaffee, looked around at a wide assortment of Army insignia. Some, like himself, wore on their collars the crossed sabres of the Cavalry. Present also were the rifles of the Infantry, the cannons of the Artillery...
...most patients, two capsules of sobisminol taken with a glass of water three times a day for several weeks healed the surface disturbances and freed them of spirochetes. It also passed into the blood stream and attacked the spirochetes in the blood and tissues. Sobisminol also works as a prophylactic. Taken daily for at least three weeks, it protects against syphilitic infection after the first week. But Dr. Hanzlik does not promise complete cures on the basis of sobisminol alone. He and other investigators believe its role for the present is to shorten and minimize the course of injections...
Measures. British defense measures multiplied as necessity mothered invention. Someone discovered that, whereas a strong stream of water from a hose only spreads a fire ignited by incendiary bombs (thermite"), a gentle sprinkle from a stirrup pump with finely perforated nozzle, like a garden watering can, douses the incandescent particles instead of scattering them. All stores were soon sold out of stirrup pumps...
...addressing his brother rabbis at Charle voix: "Remedies for Israel's agony and the world's pain will not come from what we say here nor do here. We may even in our human frailty or under controlled forces do that which deviates from the main stream of the ideal-but right or wrong, in victory or in defeat, in self-fulfillment or in frustration, we will not dissolve our partnership with God. He wages no Blitzkrieg against the forces of destruction and evil, but acts inexorably like the orderly succession of the hours, and brings doom upon...
