Graded school building was
enjoyed in a degree of intensity

rather than by broadness of numj-

series of recitals in wfiicli the

The speaker drew 4he delicate

saw in their social . contrast the

surely reverse. their stations lhe
picture may have its counterparts
but its presentation was so

recited - as an illustration of
the
author's power at fiction.
