Show ! f THE HELPER TIMES, HEiPEB.. CTAfl PRICE KEG OF "WHITE MULE" Reading for Children Ey THOMAS ARKLLE CLARK Dean of Men, University of Illinois hen I am browsing about In book of 4 to see what great numbers v. ic, there are for children beauti-- f printed most carefully j:,.": illustrated beyond anything that id have been dreamed of or ImagC er j when I was a child. Children are .joied into reading those days, with f. subtle and esthetic cajolery which J hard to resist. j There were few books Intended especially for children when I began to (Kid. There were the Hollo books, Stupid pedantic accounts of an "impos-iiblpolite and mentally inquisitive pr!? upon an investigating tour through fields of science and natural l! story. The books were informative, 6'it if any normal boy had ever met Rjllo In the flesh there would have a cruel and brutal murder on the spot. There were Sunday school libraries I tvad through Cto or three of them filled with sen-mental tales of Impossible little boys find girls. In these evil was always puiii.shed and virtue hud its sure reward I cannot say that I ever much of it. Cut in spite of the fact thut there little literature especially Intended for children, I read a great" deal. The winter day came to an end very ijulckly. It was dark shortly aftj?r I gt t home from school and had done ray chores. The evenings were long and there was little to do if one did not read. The fire inside the house bunted briskly, the light of the kerosene lamp. shone brightly, and whatever else we lacked, we had books and magazines. It was a great pleasure to read uninterruptedly through a long winter evening and it mattered little to me what I read, just so 1 : bad a hook in my hand. I Imagine I read as much trash as any child of my age tons of it, it seems to me as I go over the list and mixed In with the rest an amazing amount of the best that was written. There was Mary J. Holmes and Dickons, there was Pansy and Hugo, there was the Saturday Night and Harper's Monthly, there was the Sundry School Story and the Decameron, and I got as little harm from one as from the. the other. Ultimately I got out of my reading judgment and taste and a certain amount of discrimination, but best of all I got settled in my character the habit of reading a habit which I could not break if I wanted to do so. and which has brought me as much pleasure and satisfaction as anything else, in life. 'The attention which is now given to books especially intended for children would seem to indicate that their appetite for reading Is growing that it needs coddling and tempting before they can feel any keen desire for literary food. It is Bot wholly a healthy situation. Children are seldom hurt by reading. It Is good for them to have beautiful books, Interesting books, especially suited to their years and tastes, but my own experience leads me to the conclusion that It makes far less difference what children read than it does that they do read. It is the hubit of reading which we should cultivate.
