We feel that we have more time in the summer: or perhaps it would be more correct to say that in the winter we think we shall have tithe for reading during the summer. Whatever book we can not give ourotime to in the winter, we put aside for summer reading. Nor dtiea the fact that weneldom get to it in the summer prevent us from keeping alive this summer-reading myth.
