A member of one of America’s most distinguished and fashionable families, she locked in her heart all memory of her great ad- venture in love. To those about her, she was simply “THE OLD MAID.” And it is under that title, ironically dramatic when the facts are known; that her life story has been written by America’s most distinguished novelist —EDITH WHARTON. 2 Innoneofherearlier works—eitherin““The House of Mirth,” “Ethan Frome,”or in“The Age of Inno- cente,” for which she was awarded the Joseph Pulitzer Prize for the greatest novel written by an American during the year—has Mrs. Wharton revealed the nooks and corners, the sun and shadow, of a woman’s heart as she has done in “THE OLD MAID” in the February issue of The Red Book Magazine. It is a work that critics and the reader alike will proclaim to be the outstanding story of 1922. Also in this issue: | Stories of the independence and particular quality of Americanism posgessed by Col.
