counts for so much. If the reader
owns the book he should noc hest
tate to mark every passage that
strikes him as unusual, whether be-
cause it is particularly good or par
ticularly bad, and he should note
the number of each page marked
in blank leaf at the end Of the
book. When he has finished read
ing, he should re-read the pages 50
marked. If he does not own the
book he should note the number OF
the pages on which the unusual pas
sages occur in a blank book kept
for the purpose and this will enable
him to turn to them and roread
many passages.
To be true lover Of reading one
must own some books. 1t is sur
prising at what small expense II
good private library can be secur~
ed. The way to do this is to put
aside so much a month for the pur-
chase of books. Twenty five cents
week or even less will bring to-
gether number of volumes at the
end of the year.

Abandoned Kansas Churches

il state conference Of pastors and
teachers in Kansas has brought to
public notice that there are upward
of thousand abandoned houses Of
worship in that State. 1t is report
ed that in the conference an opin-
ion prevailed that the decline of
popular interest in church services
IS due mainly to fondness for mot
oring.
The facts are Of more than pass
ing interest. Kansas was founded
lardly more than fifty years ago by
men and women to whom religion
was as the breath of their nostrlls.
Zealots in the cause OF abolition
and Of Christianity as they under
stood it, the Bible was a household
book and worship something more
than a Sunday observance. Their
spirit was that of Puritans going to
Armageddon to battle for the Lord.
Their songs were all hymns. Their
piety had ever fighting edge to it.
Behold now their grandchildren
scoff at worship, abandon churches
and take to Sunday joyriding!
This is the progress of bumper
crops and high prices. Too much
fat in the land, too much milk and
honey in the streams, too many
chicken dinners for harvest hands,
too many wayside inns where for.
hidden waters are sweet, and
though secret are abundant, toe
many good roads for swift riding
where the corn grows and the rid.
ers cant be seen, too many motors
for the farmers sons and also fol
the farmers daughters. With
these impulses pressing through
the week, Kansas can't sit still OF
Sunday.

Learning To Read

(Extract from minutes read at an
rual meeting of the Dover Alumni
Association held last June. "rom
report OF the Committee on Self
Culture.)
1t is a common saying that pleas
tre is to be gained from the read
ing of good books but many per-
sons act as if they believed that
this pleasure was purely imaginary
AS a matter of fact it is quite as
real and as substantial as that
which is had from a good meal or
an interesting game. 1t is also
much more. 1t is the cheapest and
one of the greatest and most perma-
nent of the pleasures which life al
fOrds.
Some one may say that his ex-
perience proves the contrary so far
as he is concerned; that he has
tried reading some Of the socalled
good books and has found very lit
tie pleasure in them. Doubtless
this is the experience of many. The
important thing to bear IN mind
is that, as in many instances, the
pleasure comes only after it has
been cultivated. A certain time
each day should be devoted to it..
Thirty minutes day will bring the
reward if devoted systematically.
The reading of poor books is, how
ever, like the eating Of unwhole-
some food-it blunts the appetite,
yet leaves us unnourished.
There is a good deal in knowing
how to read. The reader should
not be a mere passive listener. He
has a part to play if he is to get
the full pleasure from the books
With fiction he should make living
beings of the personages presented
He should make mental pictures OF
them in the different situations III
which they appear so that ne may
be able to close his eyes and see
them as wildly as he can the flesh
and blood of his acquaintance. Tie
should note how their characters
are made to develop by the authors
He should wonder at what they dc
and what they may do just as hi
does with real people. He shoult
never try to repress any emotion
aroused by the book but on the con
trary should make conscious Ell
fort to feel the emotion which n
will readily see should result trol,
reading certain portions of the boo|
After a time all this becomes sec
ond nature to a reader, but at hrs
it requires real systematic efIor
on his part. In the end the eftoI
is richly rewarded. With al
classes of books that are worth IN
reading the reader should thinI
about what he reads. 1t is tn
thinking about what he has rea'
when the book is laid aside tha
