the poem, even though 1t was very
nice large print, for could not make
any sense out OF 1t. But I read the
pictures, not only that once, but many
times, and by and by I had made
up a story Of my own to fit them.
1t took me quite 4 while, for some
OF the pictures were hard to work
into the plot, like pieces Of q Jig
saw puzzle which will not seem to fit
In anywhere.
I suppose I spent weeks on that
book. and today . child would read
maybe 4 dozen in that length of
time. but I still do not think that
any one would have more fun than
I did out Of Paradise Lost" when I
was 7. That just shows you how diff
ferent things are now from the way
they used to be-
Another book that I liked was
Water Babies" by Charles Kingsley,
only I never cared for the last part,
where Tom went on his journey to
help the cruel Mr. Grimes out OF the
chimney, where he had got stuck.
did not want Mr Grimes to get
out; thought he had been 80 cruel
that he ought to be punished. (You
see how remember all these stories
that read SO very long aeo?) And
was very fond of Swiss Family
Robinson" too, but, like Water
Babies" 1t did not seem SO good to
me at the end, when the family was
at last discovered on its island. I
liked the part where they were all
alone. liked it 80 much that
tried to have an island for myself,
and all one summer I played swiss
Family on an Indian mound which
was in our pasture field. l got so

q book would try to change it to
suit me better. but somehow I never
could quite bring myself to do that.
would think that the author was
not very good. but still I would not
change anything he wrote, for some-
how it did not seem fair to go be-
hind his back in that way. thought
that could do better, but it wasn't
my job, 50 I didn't Now, when I
review a book for The Stars book
page often find myself feeling ex-
actly the same way.
I NEVER worried about "Pickwick
Papers," though. for 1 knew that
Dickens always brought his story
out-and how I loved him for it! So
read that and Nicholas Nickelby"
and David Copperfield" before was

read "Gulliver's Travels" and Tom
Sawyer" and Little Women" Il did
not like its ending) and The Marble
Faun" Il thought then could have
written a better book, but l do not
think 80 now and The Three
Musketeers" and "Ivanhoe" and
Black Beauty and The Ancient
Mariner" and Tales from Shake

and "Feathertop" and Westward,
Ho!" and Alice and q great deal
Of Bret Harte and Rudyard Kipling,
but not the books that Kipling wrote
for children. I did not read them
until I was older-I think I must
have been 20 years old then. at least.
Those are the books I liked and
I still like them today. But I hated
the Little Colonel" stories (and still
do) and I loathed Uncle Toms
Cabin" and silly things like "Rebecca
Of Sunnybrook Farm and "Anne Of
Green Gables" And now l hope
some OF you who have read this will
write and tell me what you like. No
doubt it Is all very different today.

The primary purpose of the cam

''The present situation has resulted

of that fact" he added. a.
During the last few years vast i'm

is available on easy terms to those
who take advantage of the bargains

stated.
'Too many unsafe, wornout, unreli-

he continued. "Too many are costly to

MANY of these cars can be replaced
during National Used Car Exchange
Week-to the great advantage of the
