About The Omaha morning bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 1922-1927 | View Entire Issue (March 14, 1923)
A story of pioneers, fighting for life on the prairies; of marauding Indians; of bandits and horse thieves and boodling politics; of brave women and beautiful girls. The story of Fremont McConkey, the clod hopper poet; of Catherine Ashe and her sisters; of the Bushyagers, whose horses bore many brands; of Raws Upright and his gang of grafters. It is adventure and romance and history. The Hawkeye is better than Mr. Quick’s “Van* demark’s Folly,” which the critics pronounced the best novel of 1922 after its serial appearance in The Ladies’ Home Journal. It is beyond question the greatest American novel that will be published this year. Don’t miss the first of six generous install ments— read the March Ladies’ Home Journal! Church The ringing of the church bell, or the trick of an imitation stick of chewing gum—which would attract you to church? Sensationalism or the Word of God—which would you rather hear? How should the Church advertise? is a vital question, but the grotesque methods that are being used in many places are merely cheapen ing religion. Read Charles A. Selden’s article, k‘Adver tising the Church,” in the March Journal. Harry Emerson Fosdick writes about A High Opinion of Oneself William Lyon Phelps tells stories of Haw thorne that you have never heard before. Senator Royal S. Copeland warns America of The Advancing Plagues of Eastern Europe— the typhus and cholera and bubonic plague that have killed millions in Russia. Other articles of surpassing interest by Mrs. John King Van Rensselaer, Walter Damrosch, Alice Ames Winter and Sarah D. Lowrie.
