There are subjects t engage the interest, whether it mediLal, legal, historical, architect soc ial, foreign, domestic, real or :ful dramatic athletic, ancient or ern ' or what not. If the hobby is the' country, what is finer than prese nce o£ some well chosen Iandes? If the hobby is for the sea, not a few good marines? H hobby is for dress, why not some the attractive pictures of medieval renai ssance styles in costume? ld the hobby be for a certain of history in any of its phases, to hang upon the walls the , that portray these things.

Whitmack, the librarian, or Miss Winifred Bright, assistant librarian, at the main library, Wilmette and Park avenues. Outlines for the study of any desired subject will be compiled on request, preferably after personal consultation with the applicant to determine the purpose, tastes and previous preparations, Miss Whitmack stated. The library will supply the books prescribed in each course in consecutive order and at proper intervals without undue interruption. This service is free to all Wilmette citizens. This reading course is primarily intended for adult general readers. It is free and voluntary service and is subject only to the usual library regulations and to the reader's own perseverance and inclinations. It is believed that many persons will avail themselves of such guidance and direction in planning their ~eading, as librarians, from the very nature of their calling and experiepce, are able to give such advice. "We have always been glad to render this service when it was 90ught. fhe present plan is an effort .to extend it by br:nging it more definitely to the.· attention of all our patrons. We have the books, the time and ability to do more ot this k.nd of work than we have been called upon to do," Miss Whitmack said. "The best available authorities, personal I and printed, will be corualted in compiling courses on any given subject." Clubs or groups preparing to engage jointly in a single course are invited to subm.t their plans to the library for special arrangements.

Today's Wilmette Life published a letter, written by "E. B." who wondered what was becoming of the usually numerous squirrels in the village. Frankly, and perhaps a bit sarcastically, I think that the squirrels break their legs in crossing our bumpy streets. Take Fifth street, between Central avenue and Maple avenue. The street is so fu11 of hol~s that after a good rain it looks like a river with miniature islands dotted here and there. On second thought I'-m tempted to suggest that the squirrels drown in that particular p~rt of the village. "E. B." is to be complimented on his letter. Our squirrels are harmless and have more right to live here than many vicious dogs running loose in Wilmette. Respectfully, "A.M.
