_"Friday's child is loving and giving,

Saturday's child must work for her living."_

The title of Mrs. Norris's new novel at once indicates its theme. It

is the life story of a girl who has her own way to make in the

world. The various experiences through which she passes, the various

viewpoints which she holds until she comes finally to realize that

service for others is the only thing that counts, are told with that

same intimate knowledge of character, that healthy optimism and the

belief in the ultimate goodness of mankind that have distinguished

all of this author's writing. The book is intensely alive with human

emotions. The reader is bound to sympathize with Mrs. Norris's people

because they seem like real people and because they are actuated by

motives which one is able to understand. _Saturday's Child_ is Mrs.

Norris's longest work. Into it has gone the very best of her creative

talent. It is a volume which the many admirers of _Mother_ will gladly

accept.
