Show IMMORTALIZED THE PIONEERS The newspapers of the United Sta tes are handing compliments, to the late Herbert Quick who has recently passed on from his brilliant career as a fiction writer to the relm of the unknown. He was to Iowa and the middle 'west such a chronicler of its true life as was the late Emerson Hough, who wrote the covered wagon and im mortalized the conquerors of the far West. Both Hough and Quick were both all round Americans, and sympathe-tis sympathe-tis with the struggles of the pioneers vho made this nation a reality. Their stories are clean as the fine winds of the Iowa prairies, -wholesome and invigorating as the lives they depict, leaving no excuse for reproducing re-producing degenerate literature for American families to read. |
