"BAT"-BY ARTHUR TRAIN

WE can't help but feel that Bat would be
prize story in any competition, or if
there was no competition at all; so we have
TO stand up and cheer for it in loud voice.
lncldentally,'w are mighty jublant and very
grateful over the stories that have been at
tracted to us by the ten thousand dollars in
prizes and the conditions governing the con-
test. We have received stories from the
greatest living writer's on both sides of the
Atlantic. and the quality of them has been
worthy OF the reputation of the authors. OF
course, writer's who have enviable regulations
have sent tales that we have been COM
PEELED gently but firmly to decline On the
other hand. we have received fine ones from
authors of whom we have never heard Prob
ably the percentage of acceptable stories has
been higher than in any preceding competi-
ton. But if we should tell you what that
percentage is you could hardly believe it.
But we started to say something about
Bat. which. appears in our next SUNDAY
MAGAZINE. Arthur Train has written some
remarkable tales. Indeed, he sprang very
suddenly and very securely into literary dis
tinctlOn because of the quality of his work;
but we think that his entry for the prize COM
petition is among the best things he has done
thus far. 1t is the kind of story that gets hold
of the real things inside of you, and if YOU
will take the trouble to find out what these
are you will realize what we mean when we
say it is the kind of story that we like best
to print 1t gives pretty convincing idea of
what our SUNDAY MAGAZINE stands for in
spirit.
Any story that unconsciously makes you
like yourself better because you can truly ap-
precate it. is valuable and highly appealing
one.

finely human stories you know you will read
more than once and always get something
new out of it.
Arthur Train was a successful lawyer be-
fore he won literary fame as writer of tales
about crime. There isn't any doubt that he
was born with the storytelling gift, and that
he has carefully cultivated it; but he doesn't
permit it to interfere with his law practice.
He was born in Boston in 1875 and after he
graduated from Harvard in 1896 he fol-
lowed in the footsteps of his father. sometime
Attorney General of Massachusetts, and
studied law, being admitted to the bar three
years later. Shortly afterward he removed
to New York and became attorney for the
Legal Aid Society. Then William Travers
Jerome appointed him deputy assistant
District Attorney, and he served in that busy
office for five years; then as assistant District
Attorney from 1906 to 1908. 1t was there he
gathered the wealth of material for crime
stories at first hand. He has published
'McAllister and His Double, - The Prisoner
at the Bar" "Mortmain,' True Stories of
Crime" and The Buffers Story as we'll as
many articles and legal papers.
