The article discusses about several books on feminine quality which must be despair of the feminist. Some books that are discussed here are: "The Wishing Ring Man," by Margaret Widdemer; "Ladies Must live," by Alice Duer Miller; "A Maid of Old Manhattan," by Emilie Benson Knipe and Alden Arthur Knipe; "Herself, Himself, and Myself," by Ruth Sawyer; "The Heart of Isabel Carleton," by Margaret Ashmun. Widdemer is a confirmed admirer of girlhood. "The Wishing Ring Man" is the bright tale of a damsel condemned to be a picturesque ornament in the household of her poet grandfather, until an innocent contrivance for momentary release results in her permanent escape.
