A Medford matron, ao modest In ailf-tpprriMl that few, even among her most intlmat friends, know ot tier talenu, baa again received rec ognition of more than local Import. the name of Alice McClure Oetchell appeaers beneath ber poem, "Mother" In the recently published Contemporary American Women Poet. The volume waa edited by Mlsa Toonl Oordl, editor of The Spinners, a bi-monthly of women's verse, and waa published by Henry Harrison, poetry publisher of New York, among whose publications 1b Poetry World. Contemporary American Woman Poets is the third volume to which Mrs. Oetchell ha contributed ana In which her work appears. The first was the Anthology of Minnesota poetry, published about a year ago by Mrs. Maude Schllplln, national vice-president of the National League of American Pen Women. The second volume In which her poems appeared Is "Oregon's Poets, published by Henry Harrison and off the press the latter part of De cember, 1938. Ethel Romlg Puller, who edits such an excellent poetry department in the Morning Ore gonian, wrote the forewarn to Ore gen Poets, In which Mrs. Oetchell was accorded the maximum of space. three full pages. Names of the five poems are, "Through an Old Picture Frame," "The Flower Bed," "Con trast", "The Wayfarer," and "Dawn and Dusk." Perhaps the greatest satisfaction, however, came to Mrs. Oetchell when her poem, "Mother," waa accepted, as much, according to Mlsa Oordl. for Its admirable restraint as for Its loftiness of conception and love liness of lines, The aoceptance of this poem meant that Mrs. Oetchell waa one of the 1811 living writers selected to represent the choicest verse in American poetry of the present age. Miss Oordl states that 80,000 poems were examined for this work. "The work of compilation has taken nearly two years," writes Miss Oordl. adding, "the Inclusion of practically every distinguished wo man poet Is a guarantee that this anthology will be thoroughly com prehensive. To be Included will prove a recognized , and enviable honor Indeed. "About 15 years ago," Mlsa Oordl continues, "at a time when Hazel Hall (so well known to readers of the Oregon lan) was at the eenlth of her brilliant and all too short career, with few exceptions, none of the pcets Mr. Harrison presents In this volume had written a Single line of the poems which have since won them recognition and have helped to brtnij the northwest into the literary limelight." I A few of thoe nf national Import- I ance, whose work appears In Con temporary American Women Poets are Edna St. Vincent Mlllay, Prances Frost, Marg-ret Widdemer, Mary Carolyn Davies. Lucia Trent, Fanny Heasllp Lea, Or ace stone Coates Ethel Romlg Fuller, Anna Hempsted Branch, Martha Dickinson Blancni, Sara Balrd Fle d. Ruth Comfort Mit chell. Margaret E. gangster, AmeUe Reeves Troubetskoy and Laura Be net. The volume Is handsomely got ten out. bound in blue novolex vel lum cloth, stamped In gold, and measuring about eight by eleven inches. The northwest Is also repre sented by two Seattle writers. Mary J. Elmendorf and Rose Jane wara On October 4, Mrs. Getchell was asked to become a staff member of The Spinners, Miss Oordl writing her as follows: "Since your worn quail fie you, we should like you to become one of our editors, asso ciate editors or contributing editors The prestige of The Spinners guar antees a staff member a matin gulshed position In the p o e t r world." It waa the highly gifted and be loved editor of the Portland Spec tator. Mr. Hugh Hume, who first encouraged Mrs. Oetchell to put her thoughts In verse form, on pa per, and who may even now, al though no longer with us in person. be happy in knowing his literary protege Is continuing with her worE Mr. Hume's letter, which follows, acknowledges Mrs. Getc hell's poem on Multnomah Falls: "Dear Mrs. Oetchell: 1 thaiak you very much for your kind letter, and also for the lines on Multnomah Falls. I think In a very admirable way you have caught the spirit of the falls and I shall be very pleased to print the verse in the Spectator in the near fu ture. "Every one of us, high or low. rich or poor, has a great poem tn his soul; it may express Itself as yours has done in verse; it may express Itself tn a kindly act to a bitter enemy: in for getting an Injury; in a alrapla charity to an unfriended fellow; or in a greatly heroic deed but the one great poem that each of ua. has sings Itself In some way when Its proper keynote la struck. Some very fortunate per sons have mora than one poem, and I shall be very pleased to hear from you again. "With very kind regards, I am yours truly, "HUOH HUME."
