love books enough to learn how to open
them correctly in the first place.
The sad part of it is that there are
hundreds of persons who really love
books who yet have never informed
themselves as to the proper procedure
upon first opening new volume. It is
only little trouble; after that, the book
will be much more able to Withstand
the assaults of managers.
Every new book should be opened first
according to the following formula:
Hold the book on table, with the long
edges of the covers up, one in each
hand. Then gently open the front cover
and press 1t down-likewiSe gently-after
which do the same with the back cover
If this is done carefully the stiffness will
be taken out gradually and easily.
Now you are ready for the pages. Take
the front end paper-the first inside the
cover-and press it down easily but
firmly. after which press down the back
inside end paper in the same manner
Then, alternately front and back, press
down the entire number of pages, one
after the other. first from the front and
then from the back Thus you will end
up about in the middle of the book.
After one has experimental with this
method for time, he will discover that
not every book needs such page-by-page
devotion.
Some books stronger in their backs,
may be taken two or four pages at
time. first four at the front. then four
at the back. and 50 on. until the entire
book has been gone through.

When I asked him what the trouble
was, he walked over, picked up the bike
and between sobs said, They killed my

was no place to park, but stood there
trying to console him. All could learn
from him was that a bus had struck
his dog. He could not identify the bus:

to see if the dog had been moved. He

There were many paSsers-by around

was guilty of this crime refused to stop.

The First Washington

I think the people of Washington
might be interested in the following let
ter. 1t was written from New York By
Eric Underwood, Britisher. and ap-
peared recently in The Times of London:
II have just read Sir Evelyn Wrench's
letter in The Times recently suggesting
that one of the Magma Carta manu-
scripts should be presented to the United
States as a token of gratitude of the
people of England. May say. however
that there is reason to believe that there
is possible gift which England could
make which would be even more ac-
ceptable to every man, woman, boy and
girl in the United States.
Very few people on either side of the
Atlantic are aware that few miles from
Durham we possess an ancient relic
whose appeal to all Americans is unsur-
passed anywhere: this is the site and
part of the house built by the first man
in the world to bear the name of Wash

William, in the year 1888, purchased
the manor of Washington and there
built his house and took the name de

descendants and related families till 1913.

Breaking the back of book is an I'M

Dog-ear the pages, and any volume

Spill water on the cover and no harm

But if you break it's back, no book is

Back-breaking is done this way:
Grab the book violently by both covers,
and forcibly open it with a violent
wrench.
There comes splitting sound, and

Often this backbone appears to sight.

One break, however, is never enough.
If left to his own devices, the book boor

We have gone into detail because it is
unfortunately true that the average book

To the Editor of The Stor:

10 tne Editor OF ne Stor:
CONGRATULATIONS to Senator L.
~ B. johnson of Texas and his assist
ants for their recommendations that "all
branches of the service receive men from
a common selective service pool"
Only recently 1t was announced off,
cially that college men may volunteer
for any service rather than be required
to take their chance in the draft. This
amazing action was taken to prevent
what one newspaper called "a stampede
of enlistments by college students in the
Navy and Air Force" The threatened
stampede obviously stemmed from a
desire to avoid front-line combat duty
with the Army-or, as the johnson sub
committee reported, simply to stay out
Of the Infantry
To put it bluntly, this concession to
college men authorizes them to pick the
safest billets available. Such exceptions
to equality of treatment give very appar-
ent approval to the proposition that the
wealthy (who can all send their boys to
college) are entitled to special consid-
Grafton. Furthermore, these exceptions
introduce into our armed forces selfish
spirit of "every- -for-h himself" They
encourage young men to avoid hazardous
duty and to believe that some folks arc
better than others. It is hard to realize
that our Wanted equality could be so
prostituted.
OF course. the officer corps of all serv-
ices must always be composed of vol
unteers. But otherwise young men who
are drafted should be equally subject to
military duty, and equally open to as
signment in any one of the various
services. Within the Army. they should
always be available for combat duty with
a combat unit.
The type of American boy (and mean
boy) doing our fighting in Korea will
become apparent to anyone taking time
to read newspaper stories about the
dead and wounded. The enlisted men
almost invariably are very young, rela-
lively immature, not-too-well educated.
They are almost entirely from the lower
middle and working classes. While these
men are largely volunteers. they will
soon be replaced by draftees of similar
types.
Is this Nation going to continue to
form it's fighting forces of these young
sters, who are either too naive to request
safer assignments, too proud to ask for

he is expert at saving wood and split
ting kindling: when it comes to feats
OF strength he literally shines. He fails
to perceive in a book anything more
than something else to be mauled around
with vigorous fingers and tensed muscles,
While there is more and more an in
creasing tendency on the part of the
book publishers to provide books with
reinforcement where it Is most needed,
thousands of volumes are published
without such necessary aid to integrity.
Thus many volumes will split the mo-
ment they are opened unless they find
themselves in the hands of some one
who understands how the thing ought
to be done
After book is printed, assembled,
sewn together and put in its covers, with
end papers and all, it usually comes to
the purchaser in pristine condition.
Probably no one has ever opened its
covers. The result is that there is q
certain stiffness in the binding and in
the pages. If the book is opened care

Andre eide

Andre Glide, dead at 81, will be subject of
debate for many years to come. He never under
stood himself, so it is no great wonder that he
was not comprehended by other persons Wealth
gave him the power to be "a ferocious individ-
ualist"; family background of stern religiosity
prompted him into numerous altrustic expert
ments some of wllich-like his sponsorship of
the Nouvelle Revue Enthusiastically were worth
the effort No literary man of his time was
more restless He wandered all over Europe
and much of Africa, and he noticed the smallest
details and commented upon them tirelessly.
Perhaps his tremendous interest in the whole
gamut of creation is the major clue to the
mystery of his nature.
Had he been able to conform to common
mold, he probably would have written nothing,
thought nothing felt nothing, been nothing.
Gides claim upon the future lies in his vitality
as well as in his curiosity. He was in effect
