SOUNDING BRASS?
Sir-A most delightful contrast is provided in The Listener of January 21 by the story "The Sangro Valley-at Peace," by John Compton, and the talk to schoolboys, by G. B. Shaw. After reading these two articles many readers may recall the words of an even more widely-read author than the redoubtable G.BS.: "Though I speak with the tongues of men and angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal." Perhaps 18-year-old schoolboys, and girls also, will find it worth while to read further. If so, they should turn to the 13th Chapter of 1 Corinthians in the New Testament.
