Although it is June, the Little Child about whom I shall sometimes write in these pages this morning brought me a few violets. June violets. They sound unconvincing and even sentimental. However, here they are in their vase; and they are all white but one. "Only one blue one," said Little Child, regretfully; "May must be 'most dead by mistake." "Don't the months die as soon as they go away?" I asked her, and a little shocked line troubled her forehead. "Oh, no," she said; "they never die at all. They wait and show the next months how."

American author, playwright, and the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, in 1921 for Miss Lulu Bett , her dramatic adaptation of her novel of the same name. Zona Gale (August 26, 1874 – December 27, 1938) was an American novelist, short story writer, and playwright. She became the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1921. Biography: Gale was born in Portage, Wisconsin, which she often used as a setting in her writing. She attended Wayland Academy in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, and later entered the University of Wisconsin, from which she received a Bachelor of Literature degree in 1895, and four years later a master's degree. After college, Gale wrote for newspapers in Milwaukee and New York City, for six years. "A visit to Portage in 1903 proved a turning point in her literary life, as seeing the sights and sounds of town life led her to comment that her 'old world was full of new possibilities.' Gale had found the material she needed for her writing, and returned to Portage in 1904 to concentrate full time on fiction." She wrote and published there until her 1938 death, but made trips to New York. She published her first novel, Romance Island, in 1906, and began the very popular series of "Friendship Village" stories. In 1920, she published the novel Miss Lulu Bett, which depicts life in the Midwestern United States. She adapted it as a play, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1921. "In addition to her fiction writing, Gale was an active supporter of the La Follettes (Robert Sr., Robert Jr. and Philip) and progressive causes. She was an active member of the National Women's Party, and she lobbied extensively for the 1921 Wisconsin Equal Rights Law." In the same year, she attended the founding meeting (in New York) of the Lucy Stone League and became a member of its Executive Committee. Her activism on behalf of women was her way to help solve "a problem she returned to repeatedly in her novels: women's frustration at their lack of opportunities." In 1928 at the age of fifty-four she married William L. Breese, also of Portage. Zona Gale, who was a frequent visitor to the Mission Inn Hotel in Riverside, California, became a close friend of Frank Augustus Miller, the founder of the hotel. After Frank Miller died in 1935 Zona Gale wrote a biography entitled "Frank Miller of Mission inn". A group of rooms on the fourth floor of The Mission Inn became known as "authors row" and the "Zona Gale room" is room 409. Gale died of pneumonia in a Chicago hospital in 1938.The house she built for her parents in Portage, now known as the Zona Gale House, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.........
