EDNA FERBER TO
Be HERE MAY III
Story Writer to Appear at the Burtis
Opera House, Davenport, Under
Press Club Auspices.
WILL RECITE FROM HER WORKS
Young Woman in Few Years Has Be-
come One Of the Most Popular
Authors In the Country.

Miss Edna Ferber, the story writer,
is to appear at the Burtis opera house,
Davenport, the evening of May II
under the auspices Of the Tri-Clty
Press club, arrangements for the en-
tertainment having just been COM
pleted To those who know Miss Fer
bers cleverness as a reader her Visit
is looked forward to as the literary
treat of the year in the trl-c1tles.
Doubtless capacity house will greet
her.
Miss Ferber is an Iowa girl,
having made her start as a writer on
one of the newspapers of OttumWa.
Subsequently she ~secured employment
on Milwaukee paper. While IN the
latter position she began writing
character stories. They were an in
Simultaneous hit, with the result that
the magazines began asking for con-
tributions from the gifted young writ
err In the past few years her work
cations of the country. Her Mrs.
McChesney' stories have been dram
atized into a play for Ethel Barrymore
and is proving the most successful
vehicle that popular star has been
furnished in years. Miss Barrymore
is now playing at Chicago theatre.
Miss Ferber also has written several
books. Her first work under this
head was Dawn O'Hara," which won
her instant attention in the literary
world
Has Many Friends Here.
Miss Ferber has many personal
friends in the tri-cities, and it was at
appreciation of the wide popularity Of
the young woman's writings that
prompted the Tri-City Press club in
its decision to bring Miss Ferber here
for an engagement. She makes her
home in Chicago with her mother. In
answering a letter written her by a
member of the press club committee
Miss Ferber said: 1T will not be nee
essary to secure acrobats and bell
ringers to help along with my pro-
gram. Anyway, I object to playing
with such acts. If can't have train
ed seals | will go it alone. However
| am just ambitious enough to believe
that l can handle a tri-city audience
without any assistance unless your
folks are different than they are in
other localities" Miss Ferber en-
closed newspaper clippings showing
how she had scored in other cities. A
Rockford paper stated that she proved
/ the best treat that the Woman's club
had ever secured.

people, he invariably returns home
with an odd assortment of lead pen
ellis, shoe strings and such.
He cannot pass beggar or crippled
street vender without purchasing his
wares. Mr. Walthall has philosophy
of his own, which is that he must &C
cept these things from the peddlers,
rather than merely tossing them a
coin. He says it makes them respect
themselves as real merchants.
