Nesbit Various tributes have been paid to the memory of Wilbur D. Nesbit, Ev- anston writer, whose sudden death shocked the world in which he moved, Saturday, August 20. In recent issue of the Literary Re- view of the Chicago Evening Post, its | editor, Llewellyn Jones, speaks in an editorial tribute to Mr. Nesbit of his loss to thousands of readers of his verse as well as to the business world. "He was," Mr. Jones observes, "that uncommon combination, a popiilar poet and a successful business man." He was, Mr. Jones states, too, a man who had mastered as no one else "the im- ponderables which go to make up the ideal toastmaster." He continues: "Not that Mr. Nesbit could teach those im- ponderables to others (referring to his book on after dinner speeches)--for they came out of his ripe, shrewd, humorous and kindly personality. Mabel Sterba (Mrs. Antonin Sterba), whose artist husband completed a charming portrait of Mr. Nesbit just a short while previous to his passing, has written the following verses, dated August 23, 1927: "Wilbur and Mary used to sit with us And watch the twilight fade upon the lake; And we would talk of things here and beyond, As folks are apt to do at eventide-- And Wilbur said, not many days ago, With that rare smile of his that warm- ed you by The overflow of sunshine in his heart: 'I hope my friends will come to see me then,' And now, today! 'Tis hard to bear the loss of such a friend, To know that he will never come again With Mary 'round the corner of the house, Just dropping in at eventide, To watch the twilight fade upon the lake."
