Biography of George Ade
American journalist, humorist and playwright.
George Ade was a small-town Indiana boy, born in the middle of the nineteenth century, who became so famous and rich as a wildly popular and prolific author and playwright, that he could retire to his country estate in the 1920s and spend the rest of his long life writing, entertaining, golfing, traveling and generally making himself and his many friends happy and comfortable.
George Ade was born in Kentland, Indiana in 1866, and graduated from Purdue University in 1887. After a few years as a local newspaper reporter, Ade joined his Purdue friend, cartoonist John T. McCutcheon, at the Chicago Record, where he developed the skill of turning human-interest stories into gentle satirical humor. Ade's columns, entitled "Stories of the Streets and of the Town," which were illustrated by McCutcheon, attracted national attention and were subsequently collected and published as books entitled Artie, 1896, and Pink Marsh, 1897. Ade is probably best remembered for his innumerable fables in slang, columns begun in 1897 and published as books beginning with Fables in Slang in 1899 and ending with Hand-Made Fables in 1920.
The celebrated fables proved to be a bonanza when they went into syndication in 1900, and financial success allowed Ade to turn his considerable energies to the theater. He wrote several popular musical comedies, notably The Sultan of Sulu, and fourteen equally popular, clever, lightweight plays for Broadway, the best being The Country Chairman in 1903, and The College Widow in 1904.
In 1904 Ade bought a 2400-acre estate at Brook, Indiana, named it "Hazelden" and it was there, forever after, he could work, play, and entertain lavishly. He continued writing fables, essays, newspaper and magazine articles, gave speeches and produced newsletters about his travels abroad. Ade was a political conservative, active in Republican politics and the Committee of One Hundred. He was a life-long supporter of Purdue and the Sigma Chi fraternity. Among his many activities was his presidency of the Mark Twain Association of America in the 1940s. In Miami, where he vacationed each winter, he enjoyed the same busy social life that he had in Indiana.
George Ade never married. He died in Indiana in 1944.

Scope and Content of the Collection
Correspondence, writings, pictorial materials, and newsclippings dating mainly from 1890 to 1944, documenting the literary and personal life of George Ade.
With the exception of Ade's writings, some photographs and newsclippings, and a few letters, the papers date largely from Ade's later literary career and active retirement. The collection reflects his close relationships with family and friends, and his sustained support of Purdue University and the Sigma Chi fraternity. They are also important sources of material on John T. McCutcheon and the viewpoint of conservatives opposed to the New Deal.
Most of Ade's letters date after 1920 and the bulk are to Evelyn Gilman (Mrs. William T. Gilman), William F. Kurfess, and Franklin J. Meine. One letter to Vause W. Marshall describes Ade's friendship with the illustrator John Francis (Frank) Holme. The small group of incoming correspondence includes letters from Elmer Davis, William Dean Howells, Elbert Hubbard, John T. McCutcheon, and H.T. Webster. There is also correspondence which relates to George Ade, including letters written by or to Fred C. Kelly, William Frederick Kurfess, John T. McCutcheon, Franklin J. Meine and James Rathbun, plus a photostat of a letter from Mark Twain to William D. Howells.
Within the collection is a smaller collection of Ade materials given by the Union League Club of Chicago, gathered by Monroe Cockrell, which concern Ade's friendship with Charles Fernald (both Cockrell and Monroe were officers of Ade's bank, the Continental).
The five boxes of works contain published writings, typescripts and many original manuscripts. Miscellaneous material includes articles about Ade, some Ade family items, memorabilia, a few legal documents and Hazelden-related items. There are two scrapbooks containing two printed Ade stories; also, a box of clippings and 2 boxes of photographs, many of which are of Ade.
Narrative descriptions of the subject matter, types of material, and arrangement of each series are available through the Organization section of the finding aid.

Series 2: George Ade-Charles Fernald Material, 1921-1948 |
|||||||||||
| Material relating to the friendship between George Ade and Charles Fernald, collected by Monroe Cockrell and originally presented to the Union Club of Chicago, which in turn was given to the Newberry Library in 1972. Fernald and Cockrell were officers of the Continental Bank in Chicago, where Charles Fernald handled Ade's financial affairs. Cockrell sifted through (and discarded much) of the Ade-Fernald material that the bank held, arranged it as he saw fit in two (now disbanded) notebooks and deposited it at the Union League Club in 1960. The order of the items, left as Cockrell put them, is not strictly chronological and includes correspondence (mostly from Ade), articles and clippings about Ade, newsletters written by Ade, other miscellaneous Ade-related material, plus some extraneous pieces added when Cockrell gave the papers to the Union League Club. Also includes materials relating to Ade's participation in the Committee of One Hundred and the Mark Twain Society of Chicago. | |||||||||||
