E. Hite on South Third street, Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Hite and Mrs. Ben DeVor had charge of the program, the title of which was “American Pioneer Prose Writers." Several American prose writers of the early period wee mentioned, including Charles Broekden Brown. James Fenimore Cooper, Henry Wadsworth LongI fellow and Nathanial Haththorne. Charles Broekden Brown wrote essays, lyrical ballads and novels. If he had had the originality to invent the short story, his work might have been comparable with that of Irving or Poe. James Fenimore Cooper read a forgotten English novel and it was then he decided that he could write a story better than the one he read which he did. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, beloved American poet, spent one third of his life teaching, but spent the remainder of his life in his fine old Cambridge home. Nathaniel Hawthorne’s most characteristic long books were, “Scarlet letter,” and the “House of the Seven Gables." He also wrote mythological stories for children.

Her life was not long, lasting only from 1775 to 1818. Her books rep-

resent the society and manners of a time so unlike the present, yet they seem very natural. C. E. Mitton in his interesting account of her life says,," It you tell any half dozen people, who have not made a special study of the subject, at what date these novels were written you will find that they are all surprised to hear how many generations azo Jane Austin livad. Her stories are as fresh and real as trie day they were written," Mrs. Dan Tyndall read a short sub-topic.
