to the drai*v» and adventure in

The author was bom in a
country village in western Pen-
nsylvania and grew up trrthe
era she describes. She has a
wide and discriminating Amer-

ail this is the minister’s story.
He isa man whose gifts and
mulet ambition made him long
for larger opportunities; but
who learned that size is not a
matter of place but of the
manner of living.
