A Literary Club for Busy Women

Last week group OF four women

literary club which could be run on
simple lines without dues. officers or
red tape. l make the following sur-
gestions. which 1 hope other busy
mother er-housekeepers will read and
perhaps put into practice. For a little

could anord to eXpend about "a cents
a month in order to buy one book Il

over 81. and great many excellent
books can be bought for that amount
Of course the books to be read could
be taken from public library by the
various members in turn. but this
would take so much time and trouble
BY buying one book month. the club
could let each member keep it for
hVe days. II the meetings are to be
held monthly.
In this way ihe book which all have
read in the past month will be dis
cussed at each meeting, and new
book decided upon--to buy for all to
read during the coming month.
Each member could bring clippings
of book reviews to each meeting. and
these will be read aloud to help the
club in deciding which book to buy
next. I suggest that at the opening
of each meeting the members take
turns expressing their opinions about
the book that all have Just read
