1912. Dixon's earlier works including The Clansman, which was made
into the movie, Birth of A Nation, made his reputation as the
anti-black novelist for the Jim Crow south. In The Sins of the
Father Dixon writes To the Reader: I wish it understood that I have
not used in this novel the private life of Captain Randolph
Shotwell, to whom this book is dedicated. I have drawn the
character of my central figure from the authentic personal history
of Major Daniel Norton himself, a distinguished citizen of the far
South, with whom I was intimately acquainted for many years. See

FEMALE INFLLTENCE. 59 being particularly careful to court the
society only of such females as may be possessed of an amiable
disposition, and, if possible, of a refined and cultivated mind.
The results will to him prove highly beneficial, and female
foresight and prudence becomes an admirable antidote to the too
often indiscreet impetuosity of man in matters of the heart." THE
PATERNAL HEADSHIP. ESSAY IV. BY THOMAS GAMMAGE, BOOT-CLOSER. I Have
often thought on the relation of parent to child with various and
conflicting emotions, but never shall I forget the gush of
tenderness, pride, hope, anxiety, nay, almost alarm, with which I
viewed our first little pledge of wedded love; but. amid all these
conflicting emotions, I felt as though God had been pleased to
shower down all the blessings allotted to a life in one short
moment of my existence. " I am a father " I involuntarily
exclaimed, and several times repeated, and as I dwelt upon the
fact, I resolved to begin life anew. A fresh set of
responsibilities, pleasing, though grave, opened up before me. To
point out those responsibilities as far as may be, is the purpose
of the present essay. The whole duty of a father may be summed up
in a few words: ?Educate your child in accordance with the known
principles of right, as revealed by God directly, and ascertained
by man, directly or indirectly; educate so as to bring out the
whole of the faculties, physical, mental, moral, and spiritual.
There is no need to multiply terms; to educate is to draw out, to
unfold, to direct, to entice, it may be to compel?though, if all
the former be well attended to, the latter will rarely be needed.
The great question is, how to set about the work. There can be none
as to your duty. Your right and duty to educate your child are ...

1911. Dell, British writer, began writing at a young age. Most of
her stories were ones of passion and love set in India and other
British colonial possessions. The novel begins: The long clatter of
an irregular volley of musketry rattled warningly from the naked
mountain ridges; over a great grey shoulder of rock the sun sank in
a splendid opal glow; from very near at hand came the clatter of
tin cups and the sound of a subdued British laugh. And in the room
of the Brigadier-General a man lifted his head from his hands and
stared upwards with unseeing, fixed eyes. See other titles by this
