What do you actually do when you read? Is it what you ought to do, that is, understandingly become a factor in the creative process of building your own mental and spiritual cosmos? One remembers apropos of Mr. Kerfoot's book, "How to Read," that W. Robertson Nicoll said in an address delivered before a book trade society in London that he always felt "safe and comfortable and happy in the presence of anyone who was really fond of reading." Likewise Mr. Nicoll agrees with the highly esteemed critic of Life, that only a small portion of people have learned in the proper sense how to read.
