With a hope 'that it uld lead to heneficial results, she spent the summer in' the mountaing, among the Rockies. There, in the bright fresh life of the moun- taineer, Miss Laut rode gradually batk to life and health. Close to an Indian reservation; she gathered much of the material used in her first no- vel, "Lords of the North." Miss Laut was attracted to the journalistic field.

Two and a half years ago Miss Laut left the Free Press to go to New York, to do special correspondence for lar- ger papers, largely sketch work and articles descriptive of Canadian scen- ery and travel. Her winters have been mostly spent in New York, while the summers have seen her engaged out- doors gaining material for articles.
