of novels which enjoyed considerable vogue
for number of years. When other per.
sons were talking about the meHscrnrss Of
the literature of the South She was making

was no fundamental difference between the
nountaineers and men and women else.

about the relations of men and women, and
10 set them in the surroundings with which
she was intimately acquainted.
This is the way all great literature has
been created. II II man or woman has the

they write best about are those things which
they know the most about. Myra Kelley, a
