Excerpt from A Hoosier Holiday It was at a modest evening reception I happened to be giving to a new poet of renown that the idea of the holiday was first conceived. I had not seen Franklin, subsequent companion of this pilgrimage, in all of eight or nine months, his work calling him in one direction, mine in another. He is an illustrator of repute, a master of pen and ink, what you would call a really successful artist. He has a studio in New York, another in Indiana - his home town - a car, a chauffeur, and so on. I first met Franklin ten years before, when he was fresh from Indiana and working on the Sunday supplement of a now defunct New York paper. I was doing the same. I was drawn to him then because he had such an air of unsophisticated and genial simplicity while looking so much the artist. I liked his long, strong aquiline nose, and his hair of a fine black and silver, though he was then only twenty-seven or eight. It is now white - a soft, artistic shock of it, glistening white. Franklin is a Christian Scientist, or dreamy metaphysician, a fact which may not commend him in the eyes of many, though one would do better to await a full metaphysical interpretation of his belief. It would do almost as well to call him a Buddhist or a follower of the Bhagavad Gita. He has no hard and fast Christian dogmas in mind. In fact, he is not a Christian at all, in the accepted sense, but a genial, liberal, platonic metaphysician. I know of no better way to describe him. Socalled sin, as something wherewith to reproach one, does not exist for him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Hoosier Volunteer He emitted a shrill whistle. There was no re spouse from the dreary looking log cabin with its cluttered dooryard. Zack's house was builded of unhewn logs only. His pap and mam were just plain Hoosier, and had no such aristocratic notions as had the Goodmans. Now what 's come over Zack? Grumbled Sammy to himself, in surprise. 'tain't likely he 's already gone he knew I 'd be around this morning. He made his way to the rear door and pushed it open unceremoniously, scattering a f ew hun gry looking hens from the stoop as he did so. A slatternly dressed woman with untidy hair glanced up from the batter she was mixing in a pan but did not remove her hands.
