Few of them show any real literary ability, but even when they do, the fact that men and women, whom God has en- dowed with the power to use words to convey their thoughts to their fél- low men, use that power to show humanity at its worst, makes their books revolting to those who think of these things. Almost any one who writes at all can, by allowing their minds to dwell on evil, conceive characters whose actions and words would mot for a moment be tolerat- ed. There are such people, we all know, but why choose them fof the associates of our leisure? The Cana- dian author who can write the 'best seller" of the year in good English, with characters we will leave with regret, will truly have accomplished something worth while.
