story which was reviewed for
the Hookworms by Madge
Thomson at their meeting for
which Ruby Beckett was
hostess on Jan, 27.
"I'd like to sing the song of a
woman whose primary ident
ity was established by love
and marriage, certified by
motherhood and the no-nonsense
hand of necessity, and
decorated by many gardens,"
Mrs. Kvslin says in her
delightful, autobiographical
book, She presents an impas
sioned and poetic praise of the
family, telling especially of
one year in the life of her own
family which she calls a
"harvest lime" when what

poetic prose. She brings out
most admirable ideas con
