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 weeks best sellers.
