AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL
That you don’t need to live in a big city to become a good writer is evidenced by the career of Muriel Milkins, of Casterton, Victoria. She has spent most of her life in the Mallee and Western District, and draws on personal, experience for the plots and characters of her stories, which appear regularly in “The Australian Journal,” proving lhat it does not matter where you live—it’s what you have to say that counts with readers. This month’s Journal features one of Mrs Milkins’ stories as well as a long, complete novelette by Rex Grayson, called “Prodigal Grandpop.” This amusing and exciting tale deals with, the adventures of an old gentleman from the bush, who, though regarded as a back-number in his home township, showed himself to be an.exceedingly live wire when he became involved with a crowd of Sydney gangsters. The new “Australian Journkl” provides an entertaining variety of stories, in which romance, adventure and humour are nicely balanced. In these days of soaring prices, the J ournal offers extraordinary value for sixpence.
