She called this feeling of reluctance to talk freely with her own child modesty. It was not modesty at all. DODD'S SISTER. 149 It was a distorted idea of God's plans in regard to creation. Girls demand, and will have in some form, this story of conquest by love. If they can have it where it is true to life and free from the pestilential atmosphere of passion and vice, it is a wonderful power in moulding their ideals and their lives. Their desire for books is almost insatiate, and the mother who... searches through litera- ture for the proper reading for her daughter becomes soon aware that it is one of the fields of literature that is not crowded. To make a story that is strong without being passionate ; rich without being untrue ; rep- resenting virtue and vice in their proper relations without obtruding a moral, re- quires a gift that is rare. The girl of a fervid nature despises what appears to her childish, and is injured by a promiscuous reading of literature designed for a dis- criminating age.
