...tourist on Mexico City's tree-lined Calle Amberes in the Zona Rosa shopping district might wonder if he is suffering from the mile-high altitude. There at No. 9 is a brand-new Cartier boutique, its windows agleam with shiny gold jewelry, trendy tank watches and glistening leather goods. But only eight doors away, at No. 15-C, is another Cartier, its windows also agleam with shiny gold jewelry, trendy tank watches and glistening leather goods. What is going on?

It was the age of the "Wisconsin Idea;" it was also a time when Mid-Western writers were rebelling against the literary dictation of New York; when the Wisconsin players were presenting plays by Zona Gale. William Leonard, Laura Sherry--and H. M. Jones, the latter already the author of "A Little Book of Local Verse."
