Old Lafe, the crippled

it may not be amiss to insist here upon the high
percentage in pleasure and profit which books
yield on their small cost. They have even been
adapted to the requirements oi modern living.
Their format offers no difficulties in even the
smallest city apartment. There is even an added
pleasure in the weeding out. the careful considera?
tions of value and space which the new conditions
have brought into the sport of collecting. It is then
that books acquire a living quality; and it is then
that one begins to make his own definitive teles
tion for the famous five-foot bookshelf, and to
plan for making it a ten-foot one. A book a week
??that is one of the fixed charges in many a family
budget; it should be the universal one.
BUY BOOKS! GIVE THEM AN OPPORTU?
NITY TO INTEREST YOU!
Children clamor for them remember that,
too! Whatever the toys that tempt them, how
ever ingenious their mechanical contrivances,
they must have their books or be disappointed in
their Christmas mood. From the nursery to then
introduction to grown-up literature, they are al?
ways reading. It is thus that they gain more edu?
cation, more knowledge, often, than from their
formal schooling. More American history is
taught to our boys and girls by the story-telleis
who write for them than by the text-books and
more patriotism. The appeal to the imagination
at which modern education aimr is made unerr?
ingly by such writers as, to name but one of
very many, Everett T. Tomlinson. And do not
forget the steadily growing, purposeful and
withal romantic literature of the Boy Scout and
Camp Girl movements!
OLD BOOKS, NEW BOOKS, AND BOOKS
OF ALL TIME.
Do not insist upon the newness of a book;
neither respect books only for their age. Talk
about books, and listen to the talk of others. It
will help you greatly in making your choice of
the gifts you are planning for this season, and it
will help you in your own planning for that re?
serve of perhaps as yet unrealized pleasure as
well. Give thought to your book buying and
consult your bookseller. Shop early, give hirn
time to give you his attention, talk freely with
him. Every bookshop in New York has several
good salesmen and saleswomen, held in great
esteem by collectors and connoisseurs, and they
are enthusiasts in their profession. Only give
them a chance, and they will convert you from an
occasional, holiday, book buver, into an habitual
one. And you will thank them for the service
and its results.
PERIODICALS AS HOLIDAY GIFTS.
Here is a form of Christmas giving which is
not nearly sufficiently practised. For children
the choice almost automatically suggests itself?
"St. Nicholas." For grown-ups the range is in?
finite. Reviews for information, magazines that
offer both belles-lettres and knowledge, periodi?
cals devoted to the interests of women, to sports
and fashions, to country life and the house beauti?
ful. There are the weeklies. With us they are
not so many that they need enumeration. And
remember that to many a professional man or
woman the authoritative organ of his specialty
may be a necessary and yet a luxury not lightly
contracted for.
At this crisis in the world's history in the mak?
ing, periodical literature has, indeed, become al?
most indispensable. It supplements the news of
the day, sifts it, and, in some measure, fixes what
is likely in it to have lasting significance. And a
year's subscription as a Christmas gift has the
beautiful quality of being a gift twelve times re?
newed. \
