Skeleton of Mammas Past Nearly
Wrecks Life of Little French Girl
By WALTER D. HICKMAN N
Skeletons placed in the private
closet of the life of Mme. Vervier
by her own “unconventional’* actions
in search of “happiness” rattled
lou£fy when her own daughter, Alix,
sought real happlnerf.
That is the situation faced by
Mme. Vervier, the mother of. Alix,
the little French girl, in Anne Doug
las Sedgwick’s “The Little French
Girt.”
Madame was a powerful woman.
She had great beauty, a brilliant
mind and a personality which col
lected a crowd of “delightful” French
people around her.
She had so much intelligence that
she needed less soul than qther peo
ple, adapting a phrase of the author
in describing one or the “delightful
people” surrounding Madame.
Main St. language would call
Madame swift, feist and not moral.
She picked the daisies, the roses and
the faded leaves in the various ages
of her life. She had lived, but the
history of her past threatened to
wreck the happiness of her daugh
ter when the child sought happiness
as the wife of Giles, a corking good
English lad who was backed by all
the traditions of conventional Eng
lish life.
Giles, in looking over Madame,
reached this verdict: “She is not
a bad woman; wrong, but hot bad.”
Madame, although a mother,
amused herself with “lovers.” /-
How Own Inventory
Madame, being a very wise wom
an, sums up herself as follows:
“But do not fear for me too much.
I shall know when youth is over. I
shall know when the laurels are cut
and winter has come to the woods. I
shall be able to furl my sails before
the night comes on; and If one furls
one’s sails in time, Monsieur Giles,
one Is never wrecked. And there
will be, I trust, a little harbor for
me somewhere. Alix’s children to
love. And my memories. I shall
be in old age a much happier woman
than most. Most old women have
only to remember how they were
loved by nobody at all.”
Again the verdict in her own
words: "'One never turns back at
my age. One’s path has grown too
closely about one. Other paths are
all blocked out. And J was perhaps
destined for it. For some women
may fill their hearts and stifle the
personal longings; but for others
these compensations are not enough.
They must have love. They must
have a lover. And in France hus
bands are seldom lovers. So, If one
is a mountain torrent, one leaps over
the preclpie. Do you see? That Is
my history.”
Siory Will Live
It is my opinion that "The
Little French Girl” will take its
place along side of the few con
tributions to modern fiction which
has a right to be passed over to the
next generation.
I admit that I was more inter
ested in the cliaracter drawing of
Madame Vervier and her compan
ions that I was in the many chap
ters devoted to Giles and his strict
English home.
Giles, Alix, Madame and many
other characters. Including Topple
,will live as gigantic contributions to
life as reflected by a great novelist.
Here is a novel which has been a
best seller for months. And it will
continue to be because it is a gigan
tic masterpiece of characterization
and as an accurate medium of com
paring English and French life and
their viewpoints.
Houghton Mifflin Company pub
lished “The Little French Girl.” It
is undoubtedly the most discussed
book of the day. If you want to be
up-to-date, then you iust read “The
Little French Girt.”
It is not a cheap attempt at sen
sationalism, but a marvelously tic
curate reflection of English and
French life. Nothing finer has come
to my attention lately, f
SENATE HAS ‘BUSY TIME’
Adopts Committee Reports, Argues
Rules, “Looks Pretty.”
The State Senate today had its
picture taken, argued long over
rules, adopted a few reports and
adjourned until 2 p. m.
Minority report of Senator Cham
bers, Newcastle, Democrat, recom
mending passage of an act abolish
ing fire insurance rate making bu
reaus, was adopted. Senator Nejdl
was sustained in his minority re
port asking indefinite postponement
of the amendment changing rules
making a bill dead when indefinitely
postponed.
By a vote of 47 to 0 the Senate on
Monday passed the Penrod bill which
prevents removal of the First Bap
tist and /the Second Presbyterian
Churches from the War Memorial
Plaza. ' *lll6 vote came after bitter
debate. The'measure goes to the
House.
“Salesman” Is Bold
A man posing as a salesman of
radio supplies today attempted to get
into the apartment of Miss Margaret
Mayer, 222 E. gratt St. When he
failed to leave after Miss Mayer
called through the door that she
would not sqe him, she out
of a window. Police were told the
man had made similar attempts in
other apartments.

catches it and then hands it back
to him.
" ‘ Buy yourself a cigar/ I told
him. T like you too well to take
it!’
“He got peevish and called the
captain. The captain laughed. Be
lieve me, ' aee Legislators don’t

Ai another hotel I talked to
a bell boy leaning gracefully
against the cigar counter.
“See that fellow there in the
gray overcoat?” he said.
I nodded. ,
The Kind They Like
“That’s a half dollar tip. He’s
a millionaire. That’s the kind of
fellows we like to serve. Dimes
and mostly nickels are all we get
out of the legislators.
“In the first place, most of them
come from small towns and are
used to waiting on themselves.
Consequently they don’t call for
much service. It’s the rich jnen
we like, who want'and know what
service Is. You know We have to
eat. Pity us If we had to live off
the legislator.”
His face gloomed.
t “But then business Isn’t what
it used to be—not since the first
of the year. Nobody Is tipping
much theise days.
“Sure, these boys have the
money. Couldn’t afford to attend
