Excerpt from The Passing of Mother's Portrait

Such is the fate of the little book we now reproduce for the grandchildren of those who first enjoyed it. This story literally arises out of almost a half century of latent life and brings back to a world of strong realism the vision of an ideal. Roswell Martin Field, in a happy moment, saw this ideal and left his dramatic unfolding of this vision as a flower in the literary garden of our Middle West. Did we since forget that the memory of M other, and of all she implies, is a perennial without which no family garden would burst into bloom? F ar from it, for in that case all social organization would have collapsed. But surely we have buried too much of our tradi tion as we drifted into the present era of senseless impulse.
