Hattie Horner Louthan
Hattie Horner Louthan, a former White Water, Kansas girl, is the author of five books and many contributions to newspapers and first class magazines. After graduation at the Normal School, Emporia, in 1883, Miss Horner engaged in teaching and literary work. Ten years later, she became the wife of Overton Earl Louthan, who died in 1906.
She is editor of the Great Southwest and a member of the staff of the Denver Republican. Her first volume of poems came out in 1885; the next year,
"Some Reasons For Our Choice.'' "Not At Home,'' a book of travels, was published in 1889;
"Collection of Kansas Poetry,'' in 1891; and "Thoughts Adrift,'' in 1902. Her work is versatile; the rhyme easy flowing and strong.
