WHY some novelists ever tolerate the
of their novels may be ex-
planned by the statement that, while the
great majority of novels sell less than 1000
copies. and thereby yield their authors only
$3.50 or $500, "a play that is only moderately
successful will yield its author almost at
once $500 or $1,000" We don't begrudge the
noyelists their earnings, but they must be
ashamed of themselves when they see their
creations cheapened on the stage. This
of the popular novel is too
often a disgusting burlesque.
