An interesting collection of stories. The title story probably draws on Mrs. Hill's experience with the Christian Endeavor societies active in churches at the time. If I'm not mistaken "A Chautauqua Idyl" is Mrs. Hill's first published work, printed through the efforts of her aunt Isabella Alden, when Grace was 12 years old. I'm not sure about the third story, "A Little Servant," but it must be a fairly early work as well.
