Won First Prize IN a Contest for Best
Short Story.

Mcpherson. March 2s.-Mrs Edna
Tliacher Russ has won another contest
for the best short story She has just
received $40 from New York maya
zine for the best story submitted.
Among her competitors were authors
Of standing in The country from Maine
to California and some of them held
such important positions as staff writ
eTs on some of tne best magazines of
the land. Mrs. Russ story is entitled
"Tenny' and is a tale of a section of
Arlza nsas remote from railroads. and
the story is a true portrayal of back
woods life in Arkansas. Tenny, the
heroine. is a product of that country
where the beauties of nature COM
pensate to some degree for lack of Gull
tivation and progress. A prospecting
party visiting her vicinity reveals to
Tenny culture and refinement of
which she has never dreamed. She is
quick to discern her deficiencies and
with the help of a member of the party
she struggles to a nobler existence.
Throughout the story is full of
pleasing situations, original descrip
tons and character portrayals, and
can easily be Classed as one of the best
things of the season. It is well worth
reading.
