in power without glory, a rebellious, but none the less thwarted, girl whose head was stuffed with pathetic fantasies. An equally sincere, and by far the most painful, modern Cinderella has appeared in angel, the story of a partly insane girl who murders her small half brother. How well it suggests, and how truthfully, the Law Courts' difficulties in dealing with children of all ages. The pathetic little spinster of forty leaves her prison, after a commuted death sentence, the same lonely creature she always was. The list of cinderellas knows no bounds, it includes the crudest and also the most delicate variations, often so tender that it may seem to some pedantic to ally them to the original Cinderella theme. But allied they are and in a very real way. There are many Cinderellas to-day not sitting in rags by a half-dead fire, and there are many princes waiting to bring warmth to their hearts though they may not come as princes in fairy coaches or even in a Rolls Royce. THE RISING SUN. 1946. [Dorothy Gordon and Michael Gwynn.) 38
