out of the Back Bay station into
Copley Square, and there stood the
Boston Public Library, pure and

commented on this fact to mysfela-
tives and asked if they knew that

they did not display their feelings

Its provincialism is appalling. A
blatant example may be seen in its
newspapers, which feature on their
lront pages IN big type all the petty
little local happenings and tuck away
on the inside of the sheet the really
great events Of the outside world.
Richard Waldo, formerly of The
tribune, created tempest in the
Boston teapot by declaring right
out IN meeting," before a Boston
audience, that "The Christian
Science Monitor" was the only real
i've newspaper in Boston, and he
was right.
The newspapers are not to blame.
Ihey are merely catering to the
taste of their readers, and those
readers are not particularly inter
ested IN the happenings of the
great world outside their city linn
us. Their attitude toward that
world Is much the same as that of

The Bookshop for Boys and Girls
Is only a year old. 1t grew quite
naturally out of an experiment which
was tried by the Women's Educa-
tlonal and Industrial Union of Bos-
ton, of producing childrens PLAYS
with child actors. The experiment
was not entirely successful, but it
did serve to bring the children of
the members of the union together
and to make them feel at home in it's
rooms. 1t seemed a pity to lose this
contact and so Miss Bertha r.
Mahoney. who had been in charge
OF the play producing experiment
and who through this work had be-
come intensely interested in child
literature, conceived the idea of p
Saturday morning story hour for
these boys and girls, particularly
the younger ones whose ages ranged
from five to ten years. A pro-
fAss onal story-teller entertained the
cnldren at these weekly meetings
and stimulated them to read stories
TOR themselves, and from this grew
the Bookshop for Boys and Girls.
Here one finds books for children
OF all ages from five to fifteen, good
books all of them, but not neces-
sarlly of the "highbrow'' variety.
There are juvenile classics as we'll
as modern books of fiction and
travel and history. A great feature
of the shop is its French department.
These books are carefully selected
by Mile. Clement, professor of
French language and literature at
the Lycee de Versailles.
