Ackland center story unfolds amid town turmoil
In Ackland Center New England a sleepy town faces disruption as a roadhouse named Jazzland opens inviting bootleggers and temptations. Editor Homer Pew returns to report and confronts danger while Stella Bagot pursues magazine fame in New York and reunites with family in town.
Stella's Ride to Ackland and a Magazine Bet
Stella Bagot leaves home in a Ford to meet Homer Pew at the Center and discuss her first magazine piece. Her parents urge caution about New York influences while she recalls a town clinging to a dead world postwar, guided by Ernest Hallam and a city editorial truth.
