in one of the little rush-bottomed chairs, but more often he swings his long legs from a topmost shelf, catching his toe in your marcel wave! Once in a while he pretends to read, preferring his own adventures to all others. If he were not such an idle fellow he might pick up a liberal education in the course of a few years by reading his way around the room. Starting with the Alphabet books (C. B. Falls, by choice), he might work his way thru Peter Rabbit, Robinson Crusoe, Treasure Island, Kim and Gay Neck. Soon it would not be work at all, and when he reached Moby Dick and Skyward and the Winged Horse he would be almost ready for Harvard!

For yourself you will want the "New Mappe of Wellesley," of course, for its unfailing usefulness as well as its decorative value:-and if you are wise you will provide yourself with a copy of "Into the

Void," a mystery story by Florence Converse, with Wellesley and Hathaway House, thinly disguised, as its setting.

Unless you are canny what you buy in your freshman year may make you quite unhappy later on. At Hathaway House we have no rubbish, so you will find it fairly easy to choose things you will not repudiate when you view them four years hence with sophisticated senior eyes. You will be thankful then that you had the good sense to invest in a Hugh Fisher etching or a wood cut by Margaret Patterson; a first edition of Edna Millay's "Buck in the Snow" or A. A. Milne's "House at Pooh Corner." New books by Edwin Arlington Robinson, Robert Frost and Thornton Wilder are to be published this fall. Keep space on your shelves for them and money in your purse! Later on these first editions will have increased value.

A Bookseller As Lecturer KATHRYN TURNEY GARTEN, formerly of the W. K. Stewart Company of Indianapolis, has left bookselling to become a lecturer on books to clubs and other groups. The program will consist of an hour and a half session, the first half hour reviewing important novels, the second modern non-fiction, and the third novels fresh from the press.

This is an interesting occupation for one who has been in bookselling, and the bookstores need to be closely connected with the lecturers in their cities.
