AUSTRALIAN NOVELIST

A DRAMATIC SUCCESS. * “HENRY HANDEL RICHARDSON.” Often a talented Australian actress or singer—Melba, for instance! —finds her way to the top in England or AniCr riea. It is rare, however, to find an Australian woman novelist achieving this distinction. But just this thing has been done by Henry Handel Richardson —the nom-de-plumc of an Australian woman writer. In recent months she has taken literary England by storm with her novel, “Ultima Thule” —a story of life in Australia;' One noted reviewer writes that “ ‘Ultima Thule’ is the novel of a generation! ” Everylady’s Journal —the popular Australian magazine—has been lucky in buying the serial rights of “Ultima Thule,” and it'begins as a serial in the June issue. This serial, together with five complete stories, many fine articles, five free patterns, etc.; makes EvCrylady’s Journal for June of wonderful appeal to Australian women. If June Everybody’s Journal is unobtainable locally, lOd in stamps will bring a copy by mail if sent to Everylady’s Journal, 230-236, Stanley Street, West Melbourne.
