Hugill and Mrs. Elmer Matson were elected delegates to the Federated club meeting at Union Hill by members of the Woodburn Rural club at its meeting Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. O. E.

Rogers read a prize paper, "Gardening," which was written by a 15-year-old Kansas girl and had Nearly Always "Moving Day' But She Finds Time To Write Blender, starry-eyed young wom an, with blond-gold hair, Is not the conventional idea of a description for a successful writer of adventure and mystery thrillers, but It fits Mignon G. Eberhart. Her latest story, "The White Cockatoo," will appear serially in the Capital Journal beginning Saturday, April 15. Mrs. Eberhart (her husband is a civil engineer) has the unique dis tinction of having sold every story she ever wrote. Her first novelette was hidden, unseen and unread, foi two years before she gathered enough courage to submit it to a publisher. It was accepted imme diately, to be followed by half a dozen stories and novels. A native of Lincoln, Neb., Mrs. Eberhart is the daughter of W. T. Good. Three yeurs at Nebraska Wesleyan university were followed by a special library course, then marriage. Although her novels are distin guished for masterful suspense and vivid, exciting action, Mis. Eber hart insists on maintaining a re spectful distance' from everything but the calm and placid life. Pis tols are familiar weapons In the hands of her characters, but a pa per bag exploded behind the author produces a realistic hop, step and jump from the scene. Their home now nominally in Chicago, the Eberharts are almost constantly "on the move" to meet the nomadic demands of the engi neering profession. But whether she is at her apartment or in a con struction camp Mrs. Eberhart writes. "The White Cockatoo" is a story of adventure, mystery and romance. MIGNON G. EBERHART Its setting is & sinister summer resort hotel in an abscure French time. A cleverly contrived plot brings the actors in this drama to gether in tire middle of the winter, almost cut off from the outside and world, practicing their hates intrigues on each other. A fast moving novel, "The White Cockatoo" will bring you daily thrills and exciting episodes. Watch for it beginning Saturday, April 15. won awards from 15 states.
