Jean Webster.-Jean Webster, author
Of Daddy Long Legs" and other popu-
lar stories, was born July "a, 1875, at
Fredonia, N. Y. Her father and
mother were Charles Luther and Annie
Clemens (Moffet) Webster. She was
a grandniece of Mark Twain, and it is
not surprising that her humorous writ

Lady Jane Grey school and in 1901 re-
ceived the A. B. degree from Vassar.
For the next few years her time was
spent in Italy, and in 1906-7 she made
trip around the world.

orous work published in 1908. THE
Wheat Princess" followed in 1905:
Jerry Junior in 1907; THE Four-Poll
Mystery in 1908; Much Ado About
Peter in 1909; "Just Patty" in 1911;
Daddy Long Legs" her most popular
book, was published in 1912 and later
was dramatized with some success.
Her last book was Dear Enemy" pub
lished in 1915.
While working on the proofs of
Dear Enemy" Miss Webster was
courted by Glenn Ford Mckinney, a
New York lawyer. II am too busy"
was her reply to his persistent pro-
posals. Finally she consented to be-
come his wife ON his promise that all
wedding arrangements should be TAX

to continue her literary work. Mrs.
Joseph w. Lewis was the wedding
manager The wedding took place
Sept 7, 1915, at Washington Green,
Conn.
Mrs Mckinney died at her home the
night of June II, 1916. A daughter
was born to her the day before.

All our lives will be more sunny,

such schemes were gladly pardoned
when the kaiser danced his jig, and
the heart was cold and hardened that

worthy cause, but I will not place a
shilling in the drivesmith's eager paws.
For I'm sick of people telling what
ought to give and where, tired Of al
ways digging. Smelling, for some
fchcmc that makes me swear. will
give to help the living and III give to
plant the dead, but I won't be bosscd
iii giving, and I won't be chased or
led. In the war time drives were
splendid. and they helped TO can our
foes, but he war is done and ended, and
the people need repose. Do not bother
friends or neighbors with requests for
honest dimes; leave them to their
quiet labors, as we did in olden times.
Do not think up wo.thy causes that
require financial aid, for we've ali
been Santa Clauses till our nerves are
tired and frayed.
