  Jean Cabot at Ashton

  Here is the "real thing" in a girl's college story. Older authors caninvent situations and supply excellently written general delineations ofcharacter, but all lack the vital touch of this work of a bright youngrecent graduate of a well-known college for women, who has lost none ofthe enthusiasm felt as a student. Every activity of a popular girl'sfirst year is woven into a narrative, photographic in its description ofa life that calls into play most attractive qualities, while at the sametime severely testing both character and ability.

  Jean Cabot in the British Isles

  This is a college story, although dealing with a summer vacation, andfull of college spirit. It begins with a Yale-Harvard boat race at NewLondon, but soon Jean and her room-mate sail for Great Britain under thechaperonage of Miss Hooper, a favorite member of the faculty at AshtonCollege. Their trip is full of the delight that comes to the travelerfirst seeing the countries forming "our old home."

  Jean Cabot in Cap and Gown

  Jean Cabot is a superb young woman, physically and mentally, butthoroughly human and thus favored with many warm friendships. Her finalyear 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 atonce, as do most college companions after graduation, and six of themunder the chaperonage of a married older graduate and member of the samesorority spend a most eventful summer in a historic farm-house in Maine.
