HoNFEss! Haven't you planned to
read this summer any number Of
ponGerous tones you never had
time TO look at before2 Or, If your
tastes run in a different direction,
haven't you made up your mind 10 f1nd
out what is really in all the new novels
that your friends have been reading ali
winter while you We're busy at once
or school? Well, you won't Instead,
You will spend your vacation, long or
tion which most interests you, and only
on the last day, as you pack your suit
case, you will come across that volume
of Gibbon or Robert Chambers on which
you had intended to start!
And you who have only few weeks
or, II may be, only single one-are, l
think. more than justified In spending
your precious dayssin the hammock or
mountain instead of sitting quietly even
on the most delightful OF porches and
reading even the most charming and
efeyating OF books. For the teachers
they do not need advice for their read
ing in any case; they usually have only
too much that must be donei
But, outside of vacations, all of US do
get in a certain amount Of reading, and.
for some unexplained reason. We all
seem to f1nd more time for IL in summer
than at any other season IN the year.
Often Office work Is slack and the busy
book once in while between her
duties; or the housewife finds that when
the children have gone OF to the play
ground she has many minutes which
her favorite author can well fill. And
then there are the long. light evenings
that seem made for reading OF for
hearing others read.
Moreover, there is a special kind Of
reading that just fills those summer
evenings. I do not mean the frothy
novels that hold your attention just
long enough to make you decide they
are not worth reading at all, or the
lurid ones that leave you at the end
of an hour with heavy and bewlldered
headache. But I do -hink that some
authors-heavy historians and political
theorists and philosophers-were made
for the warm leisure Of a December
fire. and that others-essayists and
novelists and perhaps poets, though
they should be always with us-are best
fitted to the comfort and GOODNESS Of a
hammock or chair by breezy win
dow.
Besides, for the systematic girl, sum
mer is just the time 10 take some IA
verite topic, not t0o heavy. and read
all sorts of books on the subject. One
girl, for instance. is very much inter-
ested in Roman life and manners. and
