Realistic Fiction As Usual
Two important announcements are to be made in the March issue of Real Life.
We have contracted with the most famous writer of realistic fiction in America today to write for Real Life. Ben Hecht is beginning with the March issue a series of real life stories and his own reminiscences as a newspaper reporter in Chicago. They are crammed with enough material for a dozen full length novels. They are the , most interesting paragraphs of real life that we have ever printed.
The second announcement concerns a series of "Gentle Grafter" stories, by Tiavis Hoke and "Mark MeMen." One of New York's most eccentric and successful "con'' men has struck up a friendship with Travis Hoke, a newspaper feature writer. Between the two, the most fascinating and humorous crook stories since O. Henry wrote his "The Gentle Grafter" are being concocted) out of "Mark Mellen's" own experiences for your amusement and instruction in the ways of criminals.
