...over a century the males of the Emmet line have been important legal and political figures in the Atlantic states. The females have inherited the Emmet artistic talent. Last week Manhattan's Arden Galleries held a family show of five generations of the Emmet women's paintings. The 130 exhibits by 14 artists begin with nine portraits by Immigrant Elizabeth Emmet (1794-1878), and end with nine sculptures by Great-Great-Grandniece Julia Townsend, aged 22, and with two by Beulah Emmet, aged...
...stage production can hope to match, he allowed Set Designer Lazare Meersom, whose work U. S. audiences have heretofore seen only in French pictures like Carnival in Flanders, a free hand.

...regular nine o'clock class over, he dawdles in the Farnsworth Room awhile, stops at the shelves that hold the priceless Arden Shakespeare and picks out "The Comedy of Errors".

Hollinger Consolidated Gold Mines, Ltd., had bought the claims and was about to start drilling while dozens of mining engineers, hundreds of prospectors were stalking Arden's once placid streets. Again Depression, which steeps most men in gloom and poverty...
Noel ("Chris") Arden was a big, heavy- shouldered young man with a capable pair of surgeon's hands and three years' interneship behind him. When he set up practice for himself, waited for patients to come, it seemed a long wait. The family in whose house he boarded and had his office were a no-account lot. Beverly, pretty heiress of the town's tycoon, brought Chris his first patient-her dog. She and Chris quarrelled and fell in love immediately. Chris was too proud and poor to do anything about it, but Beverly wangled...
