JUDITH by Grace Alexander, j.

. = 80 80
JUDITH by Grace Alexander, is
love story of more than usual grip
upon the interests of the reader, not.
only because of the affair of its prin.
cipals, but because Of its graphic pic
ture of life in an Ohio town in the
decade. before the war. The story OF
the principals takes prompt hold upon
the reader and does not let go until
the end. the characters are lifelike both
in drawing and action, and the picture
Of the life Of the community in which
the characters move is limned with
much power
Judith La Monde in childhood formed
an attachment for Abel Troop, as
Abel's father generation before had
formed, tho vainly, an attachment for.
Judith's mother. Judith IS mother took
her daughter abroad in the hope that
the girl would see the folly of the
marriage she looked forward to. The
plan succeeded in part only, for, while
