HISTORICAL SKETCH

By Hobart C. Chatfield-Taylor

During the fateful year when the world began to war, Mr. John M. Stahl, our treasurer, conceived the venturesome idea of gathering the writers of the state of Illinois together under the sponsorship of the Writers' Guild, his purpose having been to form them into a state society of authors.

None but a bold man would have sought to weld such individualistic — dare I say egotistic? — creatures as authors into a society of any sort; yet Mr. Stahl plied his typewriter so assiduously during the summer of the year 1914 that a goodly proportion of the gifted of the gods were induced to attend a dinner given for them at the Auditorium Hotel on the evening of November 28th by the Writers' Guild — or rather by Mr. Stahl, its insistent President, my suspicion be- ing that in his hands the Guild was as pliant as we authors.

To silence Mr. Stahl and his typewriter we came, albeit dubiously, only to find that he and Douglas Malloch, his valiant coadjutor, had distributed the limelight so tactfully that we became contented components of a harmonious whole. Yet harmonious is not the mot juste for the occas- ion, I fear, Hamlin Garland having been there in forensic majesty. Bent upon broadening Mr. Stahl's parochial idea, this doughty champion of the Middle West orated unabat- ingly until the domain of the proposed society had been so extended as to include within it all that vast region of the land lying north of the Ohio River and between the Alle- ghanies and the Rockies.

Being temperamentally adverse to the term "Middle West," I mildly suggested the word "Midland" between flights of Mr. Garland's eloquence, and for my unwonted in- terference was elected to bear upon my shoulders the weight of the new Society's chairmanship. Indeed, vdthout any of

4

us knowing precisely how it happened, we authors of the Commonwealth of Illinois, whom Mr. Stahl's persistence had brought together and Mr. Malloch's tact had placated, became so fired by Mr. Garland's enthusiasm that we re- solved ourselves into a Society of Midland Authors, pledged to recruit our ranks to full war strength from those of our fellow craftsmen in eleven other states of the Union.

After thus upsetting Mr. Stahl's good intention, Mr. Gar- land fled precipitously to effete Manhattan, where in all but sentiment he has ceased to be a Midland Author. Howso- ever dire his action may have seemed to Mr. Stahl, it has been justified by the success attained by the Society, — a suc- cess due, I believe, to the loyalty and wisdom of its direc- tors. Having resided in remote places during the greater portion of my incumbency of the Presidential ofifice, I can- not take credit to myself for the work of recruiting and or- ganizing the Society. I know, nevertheless, how deeply the Society is beholden to:

Edwin Balmer Vachel Lindsay

Lilian Bell Douglas Malloch

Clara Louise Burnham Harriet Monroe

George Fitch Randall Parrish

Alice French Ella W. Peattie

Hamlin Garland John M. Stahl

Alice Gerstenberg Maude Radford Warren

Emerson Hough Edith Wyatt

As the Society's first President and now its Historian, I take pleasure in inscribing their names in alphabetical order upon this, its Golden Book, since to them more than to all others its success is due, they having been its most willing and efficient workers.

Though the achievements of the Society are gratifying, I suspect that both Mr. Stahl and Mr. Garland aimed to make

of it a more austere organization than it has become. But authors are "onery critters" and therefore difificult to drive. Moreover, to expect them to prepare masterful creations merely to read to each other, when millions of readers are crying for their wares and affluent publishers with cheque books lying open before them wax impatient at their desks, is to demand too much of human nature. Indeed, those wise men and women whose names I have recorded saw both the futility and absurdity of boring the members of the Society of Midland Authors with the reading of sempiternal papers on which no royalties are paid. Morever, being authors themselves, they knew that even authors, if they can be caught unawares and induced to unbend, like to play and make good cheer, not only at Christmas ibut at other seemly times; hence "a closer association among writers of the Middle West" was declared to be the Society's prime object.

It is true that "the stimulation of creative literary effort" is a secondary tenet of its creed; yet how may authors be inspired better than by meeting each other and swapping ideas?

As Historian of the Society, I am gratified to find that there is a little of an uplifting nature to record and much that is joyful and humanizing. We Midlanders do assemble once a year, it is true, to listen to pajpers read by fellow members; but even these solemn occasions have proved far from depressing; for instead of being bored by "high-brow" sapience we have been diverted by the pleasing wit of Alice French, Meredith Nicholson, Randall Parrish, George Ade, Emerson Hough, Zona Gale, and Margaret Hill Mc- Carter

Even at the last annual meeting, when the death of our beloved Honorary President made personal reminiscenes of him the order of the day, we did not wear long faces or pass stilted resolutions. On the contrary, we just sat to- gether in a friendly group while Clara EaughHn, Edith

6

Wyatt, and Harriet Monroe told us human stories of James Whitcomb Riley's lovableness and quaintness.

But the annual meeting is the only formal conclave of the year, and even that is followed by sufficient cheer and wel- come to make what Shakespeare calls a "merry feast."

Decked in paper motley, we then devour the roast beef of old England and quaff October ale; or, in more homely guise, eat pork and beans and pumpkin pie until the hard cider which has washed them down begins to tingle in our toes. Then we must needs dance a reel to the tune of ''Old Dan Tucker," till the perspiring fiddler will bow no more.

No, there is but little wisdom and false philosophy in the Society of Midland Authors, and much that is human and edifying, even our annual meetings being far from staid events. In the winter time, however, we gather at such Bo- hemian places as Mme. Galli's, the Bismarck Garden, or De Jonghe's French restaurant; while in summer we hie either to Lake Forest for a sylvan outing or to the Chicago lawn of our charming Secretary, whenever wandering Thespians raise their trestles there.

Indeed, if the Society of Midland Authors has a just reason for being, it lies, I repeat, in its avowed purpose of bringing the writers of the Middle West together in closer association. Though a society of authors, it is nevertheless free from cant and prejudice, the creation of both friend- ship and goodfellowship among the men and women of the Middle West who write for a living being the object for which it was founded. 'Because of this it differs from other societies of its kind and plays, I fondly believe, a useful as well as pleasing part in the life of this workaday por- tion of the land.

CONSTITUTION OF THE SOCIETY OF MIDLAND AUTHORS

I. NAME

The name of this association shall be THE SOCIETY OF MIDLAND AUTHORS, and it shall include represen- tative writers resident in the twelve Central Western States between the Alleghany Mountains and the Rocky Moun- tains and north of the Ohio River, i. e., Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

V. ELECTIONS

One month before each annual meeting the Board of Directors shall appoint a nominating committee of five mem- bers who shall prepare a ticket of all ofificers to be elected for the ensuing year, this constituting the regular ticket to be voted on at the annual meeting. An independent ticket or tickets may be put in the field upon the signed request of fifteen members. Two weeks before the annual meeting the Secretary shall send the ticket or tickets to all members, who may return their votes by mail. A majority of the whole number of votes cast shall determine election.

The officers elected at the preliminary meeting shall hold office until the annual meeting of October, 1915.

VI. MEETINGS

The annual meeting of the Society shall be held in Chicago on the last Saturday in October. Special meetings may be called by the Board of Directors, or by petition of six mem- bers of the Advisory Council, or by petition of twenty-five members of the Society.

VIII. QUALIFICATIONS

The Board of Directors shall appoint a committee on membership, consisting of five members, which shall pass on

all candidates for membership, a majority vote constituting election. Any three members of the Society may present a candidate.

At a meeting of the Officers and Directors of the Society of Midland Authors, held September 27, 1917, the following amendment to the Constitution, VIII., Qualifications, para- graph 1, was proposed:

The 'Board of Directors shall constitute the Committee on Membership, a majority vote constituting election. Any one member of the Society may present a candidate, but each candidate must have the endorsement of at least two other members. Any proposal for membership shall be sent to the Secretary. Each Director shall be notified by mail of such intended election. Vote on such membership may be taken at any regular meeting of the Board of Directors. Each Director shall be required to attend such meeting or vote by mail. A failure to reply to the Secretary will be deemed an affirmative vote.

Any writer, resident within the twelve states enumerated above, who is the author of a book of poetry, fiction, history, biography, travel, or criticism, published in the regular course of trade, or who is the author of a play produced by professional players on a public stage, shall be eligible to membership. Writers of books privately printed, or of books on legal, medical, political, theological, scientific, or technical subjects, or of pamphlets, cannot be considered qualified thereby for membership.

But the membership committee by unanimous vote may elect to membership any candidate who, in its judgment, has achieved distinction as a contributor to magazines.

IX. AMENDMENTS

This constitution may be amended at any annual meeting, or meeting called for the purpose, by two-thirds vote of the memibers present; upon the recommendation of the Advisory Council; or upon request in writing of twenty-five members. The Society shall be required to send each member a copy of the amendment proposed at least thirty days before the meet- ing at which it is to be considered, with notice of said meeting.

X, INTERPRETATION

The interpretation and application of this constitution shall rest with the Board of Directors.
