Students Prefer
Popular Books' To
Classical Tales
Reports from the co-operative book-
store which is run at Vassar college
gives the world a good .idea of what
the student mind wants in its outside
eading. George Elliot, Robert Brown-j
ing, Thomas Hardy, are only a few
of the authors whose works are chang-
ing hands frequently, among the old-
er authors. The popularity of the
newer writers is attested to by the
great demand at the loan counter of
this same establishment of the books
of Sherwood Anderson, Sinclair Lewis,
Hamilton Gibbs, and Willa Cather.
A study of the reading situation at
this women's college was made re-
cently by Frederica Pisek, upon the
request of the Review of Reviews, and
the above were the facts found that
had the most bearing on the subject.
Though the average college woman
may rent the books of the modern
fictionists, it is the old standard au-
thors whose works she buys,-at Vas-
sar. It is the works of Bernard
Shaw, and John Galsworthy which
are to be seen resting on the desk
and chairs of the study rooms.
Judging from a circuit of the State
street bookstores, Michigan students
tend almost entirely toward the mod-
erns. Except in cases where a course
demands a return to the classics they,
are not to be numbered among the Treatment Found
