Edward Hope wrote "The Lantern", a humorous column in the New York Herald Tribune. Several 1928 columns mention Alice in the Delighted States. One for Christmas week (1928-12-17 p16) is devoted to the contribution purportedly by Harford Powel, Jr. (1887-1956 satirist, editor, advertiser). It is a modest contribution to meet the two book publishers' need for a plan "to lessen Sales Resistance on the Two Best Books of 1928", namely Hope's Alice and Powel's The Virgin Queene.
