READING HABIT DYING OUT
Tendency Of the TImss In England u
pspiored BY q Cambridge
Professor.

The question whether serious read
ing is dying out in England is &C,
lively discussed in bookselling and
literary circles, owing to some strik-
ing remarks by Prof. Sir Joseph
Thomson. Speaking at a dinner Of
the Associated Booksellers of Great
Britain, the professor of experiment
tai physics said:
"In the University Of Cambridge,
/ am afraid that the habit of read
ing is almost extinct, and that it has
been replaced by lectures. The un-
dergraduates expect to have the
thing digested for them, and many
of them read very little. That is a
very serious evil, and it would be
better for the coming race to en-
courage reading"
From what can be learned both
from libraries and booksellers, it
would seem that, in the wide world
outside Oxford and Cambridge, the
tendency for the book borrower is
to indulge in fiction and light litera-
ture and for the book buyer to
choose more solid fare.
"People certainly seem to read
more for entertainment than for in
struction or culture" remarked the
manager of one of the leading circu-
lating libraries. '"The demand for
solid books has not increased proper
tionately with the increase in the
number of readers. New York
