Purdue Univ., 1887. His newspaper sketches and books attracted attention for their racy and slangy idiom and for the humor and shrewdness with which they delineated people of the Midwestern scene. He is best known for Fables in Slang (1899); other volumes include People You Knew (1903) and Hand-made Fables (1920). Ade also wrote several musical comedies and farcical plays, among them The County Chairman (1903) and The College Widow See The America of George Ade (selected writings ed. by J.

27. George Ade (1866-1944), The Fabulous Fabulist Little known today and toolittle appreciated, the works of george ade charmed andentertained a generation of Americans from the 1890 s through the 1930 s. http://www.geocities.com/philip_milazzo/GeorgeAde/

Little known today and too-little appreciated, the works of George Ade charmed and entertained a generation of Americans from the 1890's through the 1930's. There is a quantity of historical information about Ade on the world-wide web, but little of his written work is on-line. These pages are my contribution. They offer the contents of numerous editions of Ade's fables to the modern reader. These works were remarkable in their day, as they are now, for capturing the impressions of a newpaperman and a skilled observer of the commonplace in the vernacular of the day. This combination results in a unique, eyewitness picture of America in transition from small towns and smaller agricultural communities to densely populated, mechanised, technological cities. Ade's topics in the fables are not out-of-the-ordinary. He gives his wry and gentle observations on urbanization, higher education, sports, automobiles, salesmanship, the workingman's world, the magnate's office, the shopkeeper's counter, the joys and sorrows of relationships and the aspirations of youth. His view is that of a man who was born and raised in west Indiana farm country just after the Civil War, and who became a big city newspaper columnist, a successful playwright, world traveller and national celebrity. Sprinkled throughout Ade's fables we find references to contemporary persons and events whose significance easily escapes the modern reader. These pages represent my first attempt to annotate the fables, in the hope of adding significant historical texture to Ade's deftly understated prose.
