why did she go from the journal to mccall's? what kind of magazine was mccall's? what kind of demographic did it appeal to? who was reading that particular magazine? third question. was there any competition to have her as a columnist or did she have to fight to get with mccall's? were there other competing journals? ms. binker: those are all great questions. i cannot wait to answer. i was hoping somebody would ask me. she went to mccall's because she had a relationship with mccall's. that dated back into the 1930's. they had serialized the first volume of her memoirs. it had been very successful. so the column grew out of that. the editors wanted to keep that relationship going, right? this is the first lady. so they started up in 1941 and it went until 1949. in 1949, there was a little tiff. the presenting issue was the second volume of eleanor's memoirs. at that time, "ladies home journal" was edited by a husband and wife team. bruce and beatrice, and bruce, when you read his correspondence and the memoir left, he comes across as a little bit pompous, to tell y
