JEAN CABOT AT ASHTON
HERE is the "real thing" in a girl's college story. Older authors caninvent situations and supply excellently written general delineations ofcharacter, but all lack the vital touch of this work of a bright youngrecent graduate of a well-known college for women, who has lost none ofthe enthusiasm felt as a student. Every activity of a popular girl'sfirst year is woven into a narrative, photographic in its description ofa life that calls into play most attractive qualities, while at the sametime severely testing both character and ability.

It begins with a Yale-Harvard boat race at NewLondon, but soon Jean and her room-mate sail for Great Britain under thechaperonage of Miss Hooper, a favorite member of the faculty at AshtonCollege. Their trip is full of the delight that comes to the travelerfirst seeing the countries forming "our old home."
