The Annals of Ann" Kate Trim
BILE Sharber tells In this book the an
nails OF Ann in the guise OF autobi-
ography-not from the beginning OF
life, but the things the young lady puts
down In her diary-and II has both
the advantages and disadvantages OF
that literary form. Things happen as
Ann moves along, and there are ro-
mances more than one which figure IN
her annals. II is in brief southern
love story in which humor is very
carefully mingled with sentiment
There are interesting people who fig
ure In the book They have good
times; things come out right and,
chapter by chapter, the story Is one
OF interest. They who figure in the
book are very we'll distinguished and
express themselves in characteristic
ways, and the interest OF the series
OF annals continues to the end of the
volume.
