12 AX/owen rJg. Miss Fairfax Suggests Reading Plan By BEATRICE FAIRFAX Many of my correspondents have been asking me recently to suggest a course of reading. I am taking this means of answering all of them. In our modern life nothing Is more Important than a knowledge of current events. "The world do move," and however much one knows of classic lore, if one is not acquainted with the events of one's own day one is vastly ignorant. So first, to all my young friends, I suggest the reading of one or two good newspapers each day. In the editorial column will bo found stimulating opinion and information, and on the news sheets an up-to-date calendar of events. To this add either a good weekly or monthly magazine which specialties in reviewing topics of the times. But when your reading has been kept up to date you will find, if you observe intelligently, all sorts of ref erences and suggestions which pre suppose a certain amount of knowl edge of history, science and literature. And it is along the three lines of his tory, science and literature that I would suggest reading. First of all. make up your mind in which your greatest interest lies—the story of the world's progress, the ex amination of its actual work or the en joyment of Its great field of imaginative lore. Read very thoroughly along the line which interests you most, but do r.ct neglect the other two. Visit the libraries Since the compass of a book is all too small for an exhaustive treatment of what to read, I can here suggest only the merest outlines of reading. But before I begin I want to say once again what I have so often sug gested to correspondents. After you have decided the lines along which you want to read, take your problem to the nearest library station. It Is part of the duty, and should be the pleasure, of the librarian in charge to help you KL.KS AM) ALPHA CIvVB DANCE , Waynesboro.

Out of Town Readers will add 7 cents extra for postage and expense of mailing FRIDAY EVENING, with definite suggestions. And now for brief suggestions as to reading along the three named lines of which X have spoken: First, history: If your interest in reading lies along this line, you enter a vast and wonderful field. In it lie the histories of all the nations and peoples of the earth; biographies and autobiographies of the great, accounts of inventions, artistic discoveries and all the great movements of life. Begin with the biblical history of Palestine, Judea and Egypt. For any knowledge of history that excludes the Bible omits the greatest and most formative period of life. Next read the classic histories of Greece and Rome. Next obtain some general history of Europe and study the movements and migrations of the great earth families. Anywhere along the line of this reading it is easy to stop and specialize of: into some branch which one finds particularly Interesting. The study of literature as pursued in colleges generally begins with "Eng lish Literature from the Beginning of the Norman Conquest." This begins by showing the relation of early Britain to English literature, deals next with the heathen poetry of the old English and goes on to the poem of Beowolf, which is based on heroic deeds done back in the 500s. The man or woman who means seri ously to do good reading in our own language should work his way up with some knowledge of Caedmon, Beda, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, the Legends of King Arthur and the Round Table, of Chaucer and all the early English before Shakespeare's time, in cluding some such simple bits of knowledge as that Edmund Spencer wrote the "Faery Queen," that Chris topher Marlowe is the author of "Dr Faustus" and that people like Michael Drayton and Ben Johnson lived. It is not necessary to go deeply into any such dry thing as the Anglo-Saxon Railway Company was secured to take the members up with their wives and sweethearts. There were fifty couples. Fly Contest Prizes on Saturday On Saturday of this week, the second Fly Contest of the Civic Club for 1915, will come to a suc cessful close. From 9 till noon on next Saturday flies may be brought for measurement, to 11 North Mar ket Square and the Committee asks that the contestants bring in their flies as early as possible. The first contest of this year ending August first was the most successful cam paign ever conducted by the Club. The committee in charge of this contest will be present for the measuring: Mrs. Robert H. Irons, chairman; Mrs. William Hender son, president of the Civic Club; Miss Rachel Pollock and Mrs. Mabel Cronise Jones. Five cents a pint will be paid for all flies turned in, and numerous prizes will also be given. Chronicle, but, at least, you want to know about them. Finally, let us consider reading along sc'entific lines. Here again we have a tremendous field. Perhaps you want to read the biographies of the great scientific discoverers. Do not begin with a man of your own day and time —an Edison. Go far back into the days when science was actually con fused with wlthcraft and magic. Then you can better understand our own "wizard." Is your interest In the science of mental states—psychology? Do you care most for biology, or astonomy, or chemistry, or physics? Here is a vast fltld in which numberless individuals and sciences and schools of thought stand out. The Study of Mankind Darwin and Huxley are generally suggested to all those who hold that "the proper study of mankind Is man." This class of reading Is likely to sug gest Itself to you only after you have schooled yourself In a preliminary one. And by the time you get to It you will kr.ow whether you want to read the philosophy of Schopenhauer, the science in which Galileo was a pioneer, or one of the other great "ologles." Begin with history. Develop your self along some preferred line of travel, adventure, discovery or the par ticular biography of a character which appeals to you. From this grow naturally into lit erature (which is the history and de velopment of the written word). Read along definite lines. Perhaps a great historian like a Macaulay would appeal to you; perhaps Tahme or Green or Symonds's story of the great Renaissance movement. All I can do here Is give general directions. Decide on your own trend oi! thought. Go to the public libraries foi your definite beginnings and you will find that your own tendencies and Interests will direct you in the map ping out of an actual "course of read ing."

TRIUMPH OF WIXGS To promote aerial navigation in America, a large silver trophy has been offered for overwater flying. It becomes the property of any recog nized club whose members win it three consecutive years. The rules of each succeeding contest will be changed in accordance with the advancement made in aeronautics during the inter vening periods. The first stage of the competition will end October 31, this year. Its winner will be the one who flies the greatest distance over water during 10 hours of one day. The conditions governing the measurement of this distance prescribe that the airman who flics in a broken line will be penalized a certain part of the total for the ad vantage he obtains over those who drive in a straight line from the start ing to the finishing places. An ad dition of five points is made to the record of a pilot for each passenger he carries. A picture of the trophy is published in the October Popular Mechanics Magazine.

Washing Won't Rid Head of Dandruff ————————————— i The only sure way to get rid of dan druff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it. entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon: apply It at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. Do this to-night, and by morning most, if not all. of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more appli cations will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and j trace of it. no matter how much dan- , druff you may have. You will find, too, that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never falls to do the work.—Advertisement. \ THE Office Training School Kaufman Bids:.. 4 *. Market Sq.
