Here is the “real thing” in a girl’s college story. Older authors can invent situations and supply excellently written general delineations of character, but all lack the vital touch of this work of a bright young recent graduate of a well-known college for women, who has lost none of the enthusiasm felt as a student. Every activity of a popular girl’s first year is woven into a narrative, photographic in its description of a life that calls into play most attractive qualities, while at the same time severely testing both character and ability. JEAN CABOT IN THE BRITISH ISLES This is a college story, although dealing with a summer vacation, and full of college spirit. It begins with a Yale-Harvard boat race at New London, but soon Jean and her room-mate sail for Great Britain under the chaperonage of Miss Hooper, a favorite member of the faculty at Ashton College. Their trip is full of the delight that comes to the traveler first seeing the countries forming “our old home.” JEAN CABOT IN CAP AND GOWN Jean Cabot is a superb young woman, physically and mentally, but thoroughly human and thus favored with many warm friendships. Her final year at Ashton College is the culmination of a course in which study, sport and exercise, and social matters have been well balanced. JEAN CABOT AT THE HOUSE WITH THE BLUE SHUTTERS Such a group as Jean and her most intimate friends could not scatter at once, as do most college companions after graduation, and six of them under chaperonage of a married older graduate and member of the same sorority spend a eventful summer in a historic farm-house in Maine.
