Irwin Cobb is one of the best known
newspaper writers of the present time,
although a Southerner by birth. his
activities have been mainly confined to
work on the important New York
dailies. Recently he has devoted his
time to writing for the Saturday Even
ing Post, and it was by that publica-
tton that he was sent abroad at the
outbreak of the present war. Those
who have heard him speak declare that
he is an orator of nosmean ability and
a most capital story teller.
