Prof. Mansergh relateý the origin and development oi the comlnanwealth concept from. the time Lord Roseberv first used the termn in Adelaid'1 in 1884. If You fmnd that fare a bit too rich for your past-harvest appetite then take a look at Erie Nicals latest baok of hu- mor-"'Shalî We Join the La. dies" (Ryerson). Mr. Nicol, yau may remember, is on the staff of The Vancouver Province. He says he gave up writing poetry when he was at col- lege because he found out that Blake "was nutty as a fruit- cake and Swinburne ran around the house naked". Mr. Nicol must know that most paets are mad-Baudel- aire, Flaubert, Goethe, Poe, Rousseau, Strindberg, Ruskin, ail of them-but he insists ho is rational only because he left their cà'mpany. I like bis story in "Shall We Join the Ladies"' where he tries ta open an ac- aount in an English bank. I tried that once and decided it .vas easier to use the old sock. The erudite Literary T im.ts1 of London bas said in an ap- preciation of Canadian writing bhat at last the Canadian has a"sense of who ho is and wbere be belongs". It is good ta bear tbis, but it is canfusing ta know that in finding where they belong such Canadian writers as Thomas Castain, Morley Callaghan and Robert Thomas Allen spend most of their time in the Un- ted States, while New Bruns3ý wick author Lawrence Earl and the yaung Montreal writer Mordecai Richier are findingr Leir destinies in aid London.

Sir Harold 'Nicholson, whose talks on the BBC are always refreshing, recently had rnuch ta say about reading habits. He Points out that there is a vaut difference between the reading habit and just being able t: read. Because bis experience bas been that mast "books that are good for you" are duli books be does flot recommend that parents should insist that their children only read books that are improving. Children, accarding ta this great reader,j should be encauraged ta read books or papers that interest tbem. If they are interested, he argues, tbey will learn to read 1: may be rude, but il is the WitiiOut strain and in Ibis mari- badge and symbol of the read- ""'I Here's wishing thlat Christmas xviii bring youÀ a bountiful measure of ioys deeply shared with'thoseJ Snear and dear. of friendships strengthened ... hapes renewed . . . dreams came true.
