Burton E. Stevenson, author Of
'The Holiday Case" (Which Messrs.
Henry Holt & Co. have printed
five times here, which has been re-
printed In England and Is being
translated In Germany, has had an
amusing experience. He has received
letters from several widely separated
members of the Holiday family in
this country. The first letter came
to the author from a young lady in
Chicago, who expressed surprise that
a name so unusual as hers should
have been used for the heroine Of
the story. and begged to know
whether the author had ever known
any one of that name. Next came
a letter from a prominent lawyer Of
Tennessee, who made the same query,
stating that his family was the only
one In America spelling their name
in just that way. Still another branch
of the family was heard from in Cali
fornia, and now 1T looks as though
there might be a reunion of the Hol-
ladays, if this sort of thing keeps
on. Mr.. Stevenson was not aware
that the name was an especially Pc
culiar one, although he never knew
any one named Holiday, but evolved
it, after some experimenting. as at
tractive and easily pronounced. The
story, OF which Miss Frances Holla-
