11-,PPP ji I 1 1 1 ELsm SINGMASTER fi N LSIE SINGMASTER fMrs. Harold Lew- ican authors. f'VVhen Sarah Saved the Dayf' was born in Schuylkill Haven, one of her first publications, continues to be a Pennsylvania, of Pennsylvania German and English Quaker stock. Although she lived at Macungie, Allentown and Harrisburg, in Pennsylvania and at Brooklyn, New York, she has done most of her writing in Gettysburg. For college training Mrs. Lewars claims not one, but three-West Chester Teachersi, Cor- nell and Radcliffe. At these institutions she chose English as her major field and took pleas- ure in writing just as she did from early child- hood. f'Miss Elsieu soon realized the rich store- house of information that her experiences fur- nished. From her early life she made use of the customs and dialect of the Pennsylvania Ger- mans. The period of the Revolutionary War and the Civil War furnished background for some of her writings. In the latter period, the Battle of Gettysburg contributed much fictional and historic interest. For many years Mrs. Lewars has been writ- ing novels and short stories and is deserving of the high place that she has won among Amer- four favorite among high school readers. As a champion of the Pennsylvania Germans, Mrs. Lewars has never varied from her original interpretation. She believes it unfair to call them Dutch and thereby mean dumb From the point of view of our beloved Gettysburg writer, the Pennsylvania Germans are fine, sturdy peo- ple, who should not be under-estimated because they have seen fit to cling to the traditions of their European background. By so doing they have had the courage to defy the customs of a society seeking to become more and more mod- ern, and have adhered, as did their ancestors, to the customs, language and art of the early German settlers. One of the stories that Mrs. Lewars enjoys telling-perhaps, because young and old alike always delight in hearing it-is Old Stafford- shire China, which appeared in The Outlook Magazine. Although this story was written in 1921, it has just as much appeal for the youth- ful reader of today as it did for their fathers and mothers.
