□TILE WOMEN
BY LOUISA M. ALCOTT
(Condensation, by Miss Carolyn Wells)
*
LOUISA MAY ALCOTT
Louisa May Alcott was born in 1832 and died in 1888. She
was the daughter of A. Bronson Alcott, the Sage of Concord. Her
early surroundings were of a highly intellectual and literary char
acter. and she naturally took to writing while still very young.
In her sketch, “Transcendental Oats,’’ she describes in an
amusing way the experience of a year at Fruitlands, where an at
tempt was made to establish an ideal community.
Miss Alcott was obliged to be a wage-earner to help out
the family income, and so taught school, served as a governess and
at times wofked as a seamtress. Wearying of this, she wrote
for the papers stories of sensational nature, which were remu
nerative financially but unsatisfactory to her as a literary pur
suit, and she abandoned this style of writing.
In a Washington hospital, she served as a nurse for a time,
but the work was so hard that she failed in health, and when she
recovered she had to find new fields of work; then she traveled
as attendant to an invalid, and with her visited Europe.
After several attempts at literature, Miss Alcott wrote “Little
Women.” which was an immediate success, reaching a sale of 87,-
000 copies in three years. She wrote from the heart, and wove into
the story incidents from the lives of hers-'if and her three sis
ters at Concord. She afterward wrote “An Old Fashioned Girl,”
“Little Men,” “Aunt Jo’S Scrap Bag,” “The Eight Cousins” and
“Rose in Bloom,” besides other stories and sketches.
Miss Alcott had ambition and ability for a high grade of lit
erary work; she made her success as a writer of children's stories.
While her receipts from some later work were large for those
times, she declared that she was more proud of the first $32 she
received than of the larger amounts later.
One generation after another of young readers finds pleasure
in Miss Alcott’s cheery, healthful stories, and their vitality is in
dicated by their appearance on the movie screen.
In their old-fashioned New Eng
land home the little women lived
with Mrs. March, their brisk and
cheery mother, who always had a
“can-I-help-you” look about her, and
whom her four girls lovingly called
“Marmee.”
Pretty Meg, the oldest, was six
teen, and already showed domestic
ta-stes and talents, though she de
tested the drudgery of household
work; ajid, a little vain of her white
hands, longed at heart td be a fine
lady. Jo fifteen, was tall, thin and
coltish, and gloried in an uncon
cealed scorn of polite conventions.
Beth, thirteen, was a lovable little
thing, shy, fond of her dolls and
devoted to music, which she tried
hopefully to produce from the old,
jingling tinpan of a piano. Amy,
twelve, considered herself the flow
er of the family.. An adorable
blonde, she admitted that the trial
of her life was her nose. For, when
she was a baby, Jo had acciden
tally dropped her into the coal-hod
and permanently flattened that fea
ture, and though poor Amy slept
with a patent clothespin pinching
it, she couldn’t attain the Grecian
effect she so much desired.
Father March was an army chap
lain in the Civil war, and in his
absence Jo declared herself to be
the man of the family. To add to

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1919
their sit :< income, she went
every day read to Aunt March, a
peppery o' , lady; and Meg, too,
earned a small salary as daily nur
sery governess to a neighbor’s
children.
In the big house next door to the
Marches lived a rich old gentle
man. Mr. Lauarence, and his grand
son, a jolly, chummy boy called
Laurie. Though awe-inspiring at
first, Mr. Laurence proved both
kindly and generous, and even tim
id Beth mustered up courage to go
over to the "Palace Beautiful” at
twilight and play softly on the
grand piano there. But, as she con
fessed to her mother, when she be
gan she was so frightened her feet
chattered on the floor.
The night Laurie took the two
older girls to the theater, Amy,
though not invited, insisted on go
ing too. Jo crossly declared she
wouldn’t go if Amy did, and fu
riously scolding her little sister, she
slammed the door and went off,
as Amy called out: “You’ll be sorry
tor this, Jo March! See if you ain’t.”
The child made good her threat by
burning up the manuscript of a pre
cious book which Jo had written,
and on which she had spent three
years of hard work. There was a
terrible fracas, and, though at her
mother’s bidding Amy made contrite
apology, Jo refused to be pacified.
It was only when poor little Amy
was nearly drowned by falling
through the ice that conscience
stricken Jo forgave her sister and
learned a much-needed lesson of
self-control.
Meg. too, learned a salutary les
son, when she went to visit some
fashionable friends and had her first
taste of ‘ Vanity Fair.” Her sisters
gladly lent her all their best things,
and, as she said to Jo: “You’re a
dear to lend me your gloves! I feel
so rich and elegant with two new
pairs and the old ones cleaned up
for common!” Yet she soon saw that
her wardrobe was sadly inadequate
to the environment in which she
found herself. Whereupon the rich
friends lent her some of their own
finery, and, after laughingly apply
ing paint and powdey, they laced
her into a sky-blue silk dress, so
low that modest Meg blushed at
herself in -the mirror, and Laurie,-
who was at the party, openly ex
pressed his suprised disapproval.
Chagrin and remorse followed, and
it was not until after full confes
sion to Marmee. that Meg realized
the trumpery value of fashionable
rivalry and the real worth of sim
plicity and contentment.
All four of the girls had leanings
toward a life of luxury and ease,
and when Mrs. March smilingly pro
posed that they try a whole week
of “all play and no work,” they
agreed eagerly. But the experiment
was a miserable failure; and after
mortifying scenes at a company
luncheon; a canary bird dead from
neglect, several slight illnesses and
lost tempers, the girls decided that
lounging and larking didn’t pay.
Now John Brooke, the tutor of
Laurie, was a secret admirer of pret
ty Meg. Discovering this, the mis
chievous boy wrote Meg a passion
ate love letter, purporting to be from
Brooke. This prank caused a terrible
upset in both houses, but later on
Brooke put the momentous ques
tion, and Meg meekly whispered,
“Yes, John,” and hid her fade on his
waistcoat. Joe, blundering in, was
transfixed with astonishment and
dismay, and exclaimed. “Oh, do some
body come quick!” John Brooke is
acting dreadfully, and Meg likes it!”
At Christmas, Father March came
home from the war, and great cele
bration was made. The neighbors
from the Laurence house were in
vited, and there never was such a
Christmas dinner as they had that
day!
Later came the first break in their
restored home circle. The Dovecote
was the name of the little brown
house that John Brooke had prepared
for his bride, and it was a tiny
affair with a lawn in front about as
big as a pocket handkerchief!
wedding, beneath the June roses, was
a simple homely one, and the bridal
journey was only the walk from the
March home to the dear little new
house. “I’m too happy to Care what
anyone says—l’m going to have my
wedding just as I want it!” Meg
had declared, and so, leaning on her
husband’s arm, her hands full of
flowers, she went away, saying.
“Thank you all for my happy wed
ding day. Good-by, good-by!”
Jo developed into a writer of sen
sational stories. This, however, was
because she found a profitable mar
ket for such work and she wanted
the money for herself and the oth
ers. For little Beth was ailing, and
a summer stay at the seashore
might, they all hoped, bring back
the roses to her cheeks. But it
didn’t, and after a time the dark
days came when gentle* Beth, like a
tired but trustful child, clung to the
hands that had led her all through
life, as her father and mother had
guided her tenderly through the Val
ley of Shadow and gave her up to
God.
Then came a day when Laurie
was invited to the Dovecote to see
Meg’s new baby. Jo appeared, a
proud aunt, bearing a bundle on a
pillow. “Shut your eyes and hold
out your arms,” she ordered, and
Laurie, obeying, opened his eyes
again to see—two babies! “Twins,
by Jupiter!” he cried; "take 'em,
quick, somebody! I’m going to laugh,
and I shall drop ’em!”
Laurie had loved Jo for years, but
Jo, though truly sorry, couldn’t re
spond. As she said. “It is impossible
for people to malte themselves love
other people if they don’t!” And
so, after a time, Laurie decided that
Amy was the only woman in the
world who could fill Jo's place and
make him happy. And the two were

great pride in her handsome hus

him, “but your nose is such a com

well-cut feature with artistic satis

Jo found her fate in an elderly
professor, wise and kind, but too
poor to think of marriage. For a
year the pair worked and waited and
hoped and loved, and then Aunt
March died and left Jo her fine old
country place. Here Jo and her pro

COTTON
NEW YORK, Oct. 27.—The cotton market
today showed continued nervousness over
the labor situation which led to considerable
realizing or liquidation. There was also
southern hedge selling here but relatively
firm cables and the continued bullish
character of spot and crop advices brought
in fresh buying, and the market opened
steady at an advance of 22 to 50 points.
January reacted from 35.15 to 34.80 short
ly after the call but later sold back above
the 35 cents level on covering and trade
buying of near months.
Reports that some of the southern ship
pers, who had sold Ijigh grades of staples
to New England manufacturers were offer
ing to pay a large bonus to be released
from their contracts, served to emphasize
the strength of the spot situation during
riie middle of the morning. January sold up
to 35.16 and March to 34.50 on continued
trade buying or covering, making net ad
vances of 40 to 52 points.
There was a little more realizing on the
midday advance and prices later reacted to
about 34.95 for January and 34.24 for March
with trading quiet during the early after
noon.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.—Prices were
irregular in the early trading in cotton
today. Around the opening the most active
months were 1 to 3 points down on good
weather in the belt, but new buying for
long account was almost immediately met
and caused a quick advance. At tlie end
of the first half hour of business prices
were 15 to 31 points above the level of
Saturday’s close.
The forecast of wet and colder weather
for hte western belt increased the demand
and the market moved up to a net advance
of 33 to 53 poiqts. Realizing from the
long side met the rise and late in the morn
ing the net advance was reduced to 8 to 23
points.
The market turned quiet with prices
showing little change. At 1 o’clock the
trading months were at net gains of 4 to
20 points.

COTTON MARKET OPINIONS
Maury, Rogers and Auchencloss: “We be
lieve intrinsic features of the cotton situa
! tion justify much higher prices.”
Springs & Co.: “We see no basis for a
sustained decline and as we look for higher
prices we favor conservative buying on all
recessions.”
i S. M. Weld & Co.: “We think the de
cline s largely due to an over-bought mar
ket, and on any material declines from pres
ent prices we advise buying.”
J. W. Jay & Co.: “The market will soon
absorb the hedge sales and a gradual ad
vance in the price is highly probable.” ,
N. L. Carpenter <fc Co.: “The farmer hblds
the key to the situation. Unless be loses
confidence and presses his cotton for sale,
prices must come back to where they started
from.”
Hayden-Stone & Co.: “Cotton occupies a
unique position and seems destined to main
tain a very high level.”
JNO. F. CLARK & CO. MARKET LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27. —General news
was mixed in character and significance.
As unfavorable we may class strained re
lations with Mexico, resolution before the
senate practically amouns to a declara
tion of war. Tension over labor matters
continues. Labor chiefs threaten with
general walk-out if either body of con
gress passes anti-strike legislation.
Liverpool was very irregular, October
being as much as 41 up against May as
much as 43 down. This shows a very
sudden adjustment in that market to the
discount situation which has existed over
here fore some time. Straddle operations
were sure to bring about an alignment be
tween the markets.
First trades here this morning were 30
np rti December, then grading down to un
changed on May. Selling on general news
caused some reaction but the f irmness in
spots, discount of futures under spot prices
and the bullish weather outlook soon
caused rallies. Savannah clears 32.000
hales today.
SHEPARD & GLUCK" COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.—-Fear of more
wet yeather in the belt and prospects of
lower temperatures ns well were a sus
taining influence in cotton today, but the
market lacked the bulging tendency it
displayed last wee. Fluctuations were
comparatively narrow and the hard spots
met realizing. Howejjer. should the weath
er map tomorrow morning turn wet and
cold buying orders probably will increase.
GRAIN |
CHICAGO, Oct. 27.—Decided strength
manifested itself today in the corn mar
ket and there was active buying on the
part of commission houses and shorts. Open
ing figures, which ranged from %c to l%c
higher, were followed by material further
gains.
Oats ascended with corn.
Provisions, like cereals and hogs, were
on the upgrade.

Barrett Issues Call
To Farmers to Save
Country From Radicals
WASHINGTON, Oct, 25.—A call
to farmers to assume leadership
in national affairs to save the
country from “the common enemy
cf extremism,” was sent out to

on one hand and a perilous red
propaganda on the other, the na
tion is facing the most dangerous
situation since the civil war,” Bar
rett said.
!‘The time has arrived when, un
less there can be reached an agree
ment between capital and labor,
founded upon the most advanced
precept of justice, the farmers of
the nation co-operating with other
forces must become the conserv
ing agency.”
