By the Associated Press NEW YORK, January 21.—Stimu lating New York with its wealth of | story material is too cosmopol an: and too full of noise, speed, gavety | and people for some American authors. | So they bar their doors to acquaint- | ances, close their windows to the blatant, teeming streets, muffle the telephones and forget the bright lights and pretty girls or—they retire to | secluded spots far from these metro- politan distractions. | Too many acquaintances and too many parties—'"the terrific pressure of interesting things to do and inter- esting pegple to meet,” in the words of George Agnew Chamberlain—are the chief faults found in New York also by W. E. Woodward and his wife, Helen; Charles G. Norris and his wife, Kathleen, and Donald Ogden Stewart. Spoil Young Writers. “New Yorkers take a young writer up and make it impossible for him to do any more work,” Stewart says. “It is too easy to find a good time here." The Norrises spend the Summers their California ranch, La E tancia, five miles from the neare village of Saratoga. untouched by a railroad. But finding a place for the Winter is a problem “Isolation is impossible in D York, except for the unknown writer," s Hamlin Garland. “Also, there is a tendency to hurry too much. The psychology of a great city is very other side it is very distorting. The writer is apt to catch the toneof the city and think he is getting the tone of the whole country. The only solu- tion for one who writes of America. is to live part of the time outside of New York.” Garland does most of his work in the Catskills, where he goes in May to stay until November. Will Durant has done most of his writing in cities, but he now is enjoy: SEVEN MADE ILL BY GAS. Monoxide Fumes Escape From Fur- nace in Charles Edgerton’s Home.
