The article presents information about the book "The Proving of Virginia," by Daisy Rhodes Campbell. This bright story of college life and after has for theme an idea which has been treated numberless times since Louisa M. Alcott's "An Old-Fashioned Girl," the conception of a fresh young woman of unsophisticated training thrown into contact with a group of more experienced and worldly-wise young people, but maintaining her unspoiled personality through all vicissitudes, and emerging into well-rounded womanhood at the end.
