Famous Books The Favorite Volumes of Your Lihrary Have Clirnhti Down from the Shelf and Gone into the Movies. A FTER one has finished reading the last A\ page of a good story, how loathe one X A feels to close the book and leave these old friends. Ofttimes we re-read an especial favorite. The movies of famous books give us an added pleasure in permitting us to see many beloved characters come to life on the screen. This season a number of choice books will be filmed. Among them "Treasure Island," "David Copperfield," "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch," and more recent best sellers such as "The Fountain," "One More Spring," "Work of Art" and "Life Begins at Forty."
