The authors later ‘state that the business man who has neglected the reading habit must \reâ€"establish that "friendship with all ‘living fiterature he has neglected:in his busy years." But not only the business man should be inâ€" cluded. Books should be presented to attract© curiosity, and to reâ€" awaken a dormant friendship in those who. will enjoy their society. Reading leisure, we know, is not a clocked period but, a state of mind; "finding time" is merely seising opportunity. > hy *. i More Book Talks The adult education group at Linâ€" coln school has complete plans for a series of evening book talks to begin Jan. 24 at the Lincoln school Vuilding. i n s These will be held every two weeks for the duration of these classes, which are being conducted for ‘any adult who wishes to do something constructive‘ with his leisure time, Host to Neighboring Hibrarians The Highland Park Library is expecting as its guests next Monday the trustees and librarians from all the neighboring towns, north in the county, and south to Evanston.

Books must not lose their effectiveness in crises because they are such very‘ familiar tools; books are dynamite, they are fertilizers, they are sometimes oil to troubled waters. Before our eyes current social trends are shaping into a new social setâ€"up. . Let‘s read and recommend. â€"P.W. Jan. 12. 1985. PAGE TEN Automotive Repair Service 133 N.
