In the discussion of the railway SIT

parts of the 11th street line and ROCK

any passengers carried, and that steps
should be taken TO eliminate the use

The trials and final success of
Miss Fannie Hurst, the Jewish
writer, who triumphed over many
difficulties, are described in bio
graphical sketch by Miss Elizabeth
Jordan, in the Cosmopolitan Maya
zine, part of which is reprinted
herewith.
Fannie Hurst was born in St.
Louis October 10, 1889. She is an
only child of Jewish parents. Her
father is a business man in very
modest circumstances.
She went through public school
and then through high school,
graduating from the latter at fifteen.
At nineteen she graduated from the
Washington University of St.
Louis. Throughout this time she
wrote steadily, and wholly without
encouragement.
In the high school she developed
a burning ambition. The pupils
published journal-the High
School News Fannie's ambition
was to have story in this journal
For four years she spent her free
time writing toward this end. In
that entire period not one of her
stories was accepted by the High
School News.
Toward the end of her first year
in the University, she wrote a short
story about shop girl. With char
acteristic determination she sent it
to the High School News. 1t was
accepted.
In the University Miss Hurst's
experience was almost as harrow
ing. She herself was one of the edi-
tors of the University magazine,
Student Life. In her editorial ca
pacity, she promptly accepted one
of her own short stories.
After her graduation from the

University, Fannie's father and
mother advised her to teach.
But | don't want to teach," she
said. ~ want to go to New York
this autumn and take a course at
Columbia University"
Her daily work in the University
filled only an hour of her time. She
was studying quite without interest,
1.-THE Literature of the French Rem
aissance." She chose that course
because it came first in the MORN
ing and left her days free.
For several months she spent
these days on the New York streets,
especially on the streets of the East
Side. She walked mile after mile.
She learned to know every inch of
every crowded section.
She walked the Bowery. She
spent hour after hour in the Italian
quarter, the Russian quarter, the
Yiddish quarter. She drifted into
and out of the big shops and the
little shops. She learned to know
the people of all these places, and
the lives of these people.
After two or three months of
these excursions, Miss Hurst began
to write. Again she bombarded ed
itors with her manuscripts. Again
every manuscript came back.
During the entire winter she did
not sell one manuscript. She did
not earn one cent.
In despair, with the idea of eking
out her income, she applied to a
theatrical man for a place on the
stage. He explained that she
needed '1essons," and offered to
make her special rate of seven dol
lars lesson.
Then, by pure chance (quite un-
connected with the lessons, she ex-
plains), she secured a position with

I1eI part kept ICI Oil llC stage i've
minutes and gave her two lines to
speak: It brought her twenty dol
lars week, and she held the posi-
ton for three weeks.
The months that followed were
Fannie Hurst's desperate "last
stand against failure, and she put
up a magnificent fight.
Day after day she sent out her
manuscripts. Day after day they
came back. The cost of postage be-
came an item that troubled her
dreams.
At last, when her outlook was
blacklist, she sold story to one of
the cheaper magazines, and received
check for thirty dollars in pay
ment.
Then she met a helpful and in
spring editor. He gave her con-
structive criticism. Good though
this was it was difficult for Miss
Hurst to profit by it. Theoretically,
she is open to suggestions. Practi-
cally, it is almost impossible for her
to change anything she has written.
However, this editor did more
than suggest. He bought her sto-
ries-one, then another, and dozen,
perhaps, in all. Her prices scared
to sixty dollars for story. Toward
the end of her second winter in New
York, her earnings averaged about
thirty dollars a month.
Then the first "big magazine" be-
gan to nibble, hesitated, backed
and finally swallowed a story. Its
editor came to see her.
"What was your idea of the price
for this?" he asked, after they had
chatted while.
1T will leave that to you," she
said family.
"Then suppose we say three hun
dred dollars" suggested the editor.
He misunderstood her stunned 81
lence.
"Of course we expect to pay more
than that for your next story" he
added hurriedly.
Fannie Hurst's struggles were
over.
From three hundred dollars for
story her price rose within a year
to five hundred, then to eight hun
dred, to thousand, to twelve hum
dred, and recently she signed
three years contract with the Cos
mopolitian Magazine at eighteen
