ON BEING WELL READ"

formation. Above all else the man who is truly well read should put the spirit above the fact he should have that liter ary sense which comes not of reading many books nor of making many books; and it should be his own literary sense, rot that of another The literary sense involves inevitably the possession of a background-an background means a standard of judgment the ability to use perspective. The well-read man or wom- an may not be a profound critic; but he must have that instinct for the best that will keep him from the primrose path of dalliance more surely than all the hard and fast rules ever devised by those sad eyed mechanics. the literary carpenters and plumbers.
 But-to get back to the initial question if the literary sense is the criterion by which a man must be judged as to his right to be called well read" does that come most often through wide or deep acquaintance with books? To some book
 lovers at least 1t must seem that the question is in itself absurd. that it ad- mits of but one answer-both. man who is really well read must know many books casually and a few intimately. He may be one of the reticent souls who have only a few hearthside friends; he may be
 iheral enough to admit many to his con- fdence. But he must know enough of the world of books to form means of com parison by which he can know those worthy to come into the inner circle, whether that be large or small. So much seems so obvious that one wonders it can for moment even assume the dignity of problem. And yet, if by asking such a question one person can be made to see the truth and to have a truer love for lit- erary art the question will surely not have been asked in vain.
