BOOKS  He who sells a soul a book Gives that soul a sweeping look Through its pages Down the Ages;

Gives that soul a ship to sail Where the great adventures hail, On the sea Of destiny;

Gives that soul a vision-wide As the skies where stars abide And the far Lone planets are;

Gives that soul great dreams to Dream! Sunlit ways that glint and gleam

 Where great Sages Tramp the Ages!   WILLIAM LE ROY STIDGER

A real book is not one that we read, but one that reads us.   WYSTAN HUGH AUDEN

He who works with his hands is a laborer, He who works with his hands and his head is an artisan,

But he who works with his hands, his head, and his heart is an artist.  LOUIS NIZER

She was awarded the 1924 Pulitzer Prize for The Able McLaughlins. Born in Traer, Iowa, Wilson attended the University of Chicago, earning degrees in 1903 and 1904. She then became a missionary in the service of the United Presbyterian Church of North America. While assigned to the Punjab region of India, she worked at a girl's school and at a hospital. She returned to the U.S. in 1910 because of illness and resigned from her position as a missionary in 1916. She spent the year 1912-13 at the divinity school of the University of Chicago. Then she taught for five years at West Pullman High School.

The themes found throughout her writings include the secondary status of women and the role of religion. In 1923, she married G. D.
