Excerpt from The Goblin, Vol. 5: November, 1924

Once upon a time, according to this story, there lived a French girl called Alix, who was the legitimate daughter of a mother who was an over-amiable person, to say the least. This beautiful creature had one gentleman friend called Owen, an Englishman, killed in the war. To the English home of Owen the mother decides to send Alix. Alix is misunderstood by one and all except Giles, the brother of Owen. The develop ment of a beautiful friendship between these two, the many racial differences between French and English people, the dif ference between love and l'amour are worked into a main theme of a story that is exquisitely told. Readers, young and old, grown sick and weary of the seemingly endless flow of pic tures of the new freedom of present-day youth, are offered this pleasant and tonic sedative by Old Doctor Go'blin.
