Literary Note from The Century Co.

Literary Note from The Century Co.
Sir Walter Besant begins in the De-
cember CENTURY series of papers il
Illustrating life in East London, as it is
to-day. His manner of treating the
subject is that of the novelist, rather
than the essayest, for he takes as his
point of departure the birth of typical
girl of the east end-"One of Two Mil
lions in East London" and traces her
career to the time of her marriage at
seventeen to young countryman who
has come up to town to make his living
as a porter. Liz is "Board school"
girl, and Sir Walter holds that what the
average East Londoner learns from
books at school he afterwards forgets !;
but that the civilizing influence of the
schools is incalculable, and has marvel
lousy transformed the East End within
the past thirty years. No one knows
more of the life of the poor in London
than the author of Cali Sorts and Con
ditions of Men )" and no one is better
known as their pictorial interpreter
than Phil May, who collaborates with
Joseph Pencil in illustrating Sir Wal.
ter's article.
