One critic when writing OF Miss
Ferber's lecture recital based in her
book, Roast Beef Medium" said.
I'm this lecture Miss Ferber will
read from a number OF her stories
tieing her readings together with an
interesting comment on literature in
general and her own i'm particular.
We will get a glimpse behind the
scenes and see the creation and de-
velopment of a national character in
our literature.

taken the prosaic. everyday world OF
business and invested il with such
an air Of romance as has Miss Fer
