Selects a Glasq&uf Booh
1oV '. CtWen t '' 'Hoiwrjt ...
The bock which has' been chosen
this "mdnth by the selecting-committee
or the Book-of-the-Month
club, of which the Salem Woman's
ftlub maintains a branch, is "The
Romantic Comedians," by Eller.
Glasgow.
The following eminent folk of
letters accomplished the decision:
Henry Seidel Canby, chairman;
Ileywood Broun, Dorothy Canfield.
William Allen White and Chris
topher Morley.
"This book." says an accom
paning press sheet, "is Ellen Glas
gow's 15th novel, and from the
chorus of praise that has been
rising from the reviewing col
umns, it is apparent that quite
universally it is due to be con
sidered her best."
Dr. Canby says: "Miss Glas
gow lias exercised her very great
powers, not only in a feat of fine
writing, but in a story that should
move every middle-aged reader
and should interest every young.
For sTie has taken that situation
usually made absurd or merely
pathetic, the devoted love of an
oldish man for youth in a lovely
girl."
Rev. Martin Fereshetian. pas
tor of the First Unitarian church,
and a scholar along many lines,
conducts the Book-of-the-Month
Study club which meets at the
