From Publisher To You T HE question whether or not a writer should also hold a job is one that has agitated literary folk ever since the first author scratched his lines upon the walls of his cave-despite the fact that most writers have had to do other work whether they wanted to or not. Sherwood Anderson now joins the ranks of those who believe, not only that it is a good thing, but that it is a necessary thing. Without going in for theories of professional art versus amateur hobbies, he frankly states that when he was without a job he just plain grew tired of associating so much with only one man-Sherwood Anderson. As a result, he has bought himself two country newspapers and is now so interested and busy that he has time to write for The Outlook. EXT in interest to Mr. Anderson's NEXT piece is Adachi Kinnosuke's essay on his remembrances of his childhood in Japan. He has never written anything finer than the series of which this paper is the first. MEANWHILE, we are glad to wel come to our pages several new writers and editors of departments. Thomas H. Gammack, who will make us more familiar week by week with what the business and financial leaders of Wall Street think, is now on the staff of the New York "Sun." Harriet Eager Davis, formerly the editor of the "Little Delineator," and also author of several books and pieces for children, lives in New Haven when she is not junketing up and down the land collecting the tales from childhood which we begin printing in this issue. Ibby Hall is the nom de plume of a poet and writer of operettas for children, who uses this name for her journalistic work. We are calling her very human and unusual miniatures from the news, "Life and Death and Giants." Eugene Bonner, the writer of "Musical Impressions," is well known to musicians and composers both here and abroad, and now lives in New York City. HESE, together with Frances La mont Robbins, of "Speaking of Books," and Walter R. Brooks, of "Ivory, Apes & Peacocks," are all recent newcomers to The Outlook. We think you will enjoy their varied contributions. Francis Profus Bellamy |
