Schwartz, Julia Augusta. Elinor’s college career. †$1.50. Little.
The girl who came to college for fun, the one who was sent, the daughter of wealth who came for the sake of atmosphere, and the “shabby girl” whom the other three call a genius are roommates and chums during their four years at college—presumably Vassar. Their frolics and study make anything but tame pastime for the young reader bent upon wholesome entertainment.

“His rhythms are raised above mediocrity only by their almost unvaried pomp. His style is in keeping; it is lacking in precision as much as in restraint.”
