zine Gave Many Indiana
Geniuses Their Start.
By the Associated Praia.
INDIANAPOLIS. October 14.—Be
hind the genius of a group of Indiana
writers who carried the Hoosler State
to the fore In a generation In cotempo
rary authorship there has been revealed
the hand of Hewitt Hanson Howland,
new editor of the Century magazine.
Howland, as editor of the Bobbs-Mer
rlll Publishing Company from 1900 to
1925, discovered and put before the
country the first works of half a dozen
Indianaians.
Boyhood chum of Booth Tarklng
ton and confidant of half a dozen other
embryo literary artists, Howland’s
sponsorship of many famous writers
was not revealed until he was named
to succeed Glenn Frank, who has be
come president of Wisconsin Univer
sity.
Recognized Riley’s Genius
Many of the incidents of boyhood
which Tarkington has portrayed were
from the every-day life of the compan
ions. Tarkington. when not arrang
ing bam loft shows, was Immersed in
a book, Howland related, and through
out his young manhood he read widely
and well, building the background for
his literary success.
As the editor began bis Indianapolis
association, James Whitcomb Riley
was publishing his first volume of
poems, a tiny pamphlet put out by an
Indianapolis newspaper to which Riley
was a contributor. Howland saw the
genius of Riley and encouraged It.
The relationship gave impetus to the
young publishing house and started
Riley on the road to fame.
Gene Stratton Porter, with a know- !
ledge and love of nature, came from
her Ltmberlost estate In northern
Indiana to Howland with her first
book, “The Song of the Cardinal."
After a number of New York pub
lishers refused Mary Roberts Rifine
hart's first effort, “The Circular Stair
case,” Howland accepted it, rushing
to Pittsburgh overnight to get Mrs.
Rhlnehart’s name to a contract.
Whitlock's First Book
Brand Whitlock as a Chicago news
paper reporter and a student of poli
tics paved the way for his first book.
“The Thirteenth District.” Howland
heard of It and went to Toledo, then
Whitlock's home, read the manuscript,
accepted and published the book.
From Syracuse, N. Y. newspaper
man came a manuscript filled with
adventure, humor and characteriza
tion. It was “The Puppet Crown.”
in embryo, and heralded the arrival
of a new writer —Harold McGrath.
George Barr McCutcheon. a news
paper man, brought from Lafavette,
Ind., the manuscript for his first novel
“Graustark.”
“The writer must be a story teller;
be must have a background of good
reading and he must be willing to
work long and hard. If he has these
things he can succeed,” says Mr. How
land.
Scat for That.
from Jude''.
“It must be three years sinee I saw
•ti last. I hardly knew jou—you
ivo aged so!”
“Really! Well, T wouldn't have
'mown you except for that dress!”
