Why Should
(First in a Scries of Four)
Pa MRS. LOIS D. DVMMETT
(Mrs. Dummett is a graduate in
Languages and former Feature
Writer)
Not too many years back, the
question was “Why can’t Johnny
read?”
Today, with the competition
from television, hi-fi and movies,
the query is fa t becoming, “Why
won’t Johnny attempt to read?”
in diverse elides, steps are be-
ing taken to reverse this unhappy
trend— the declining rank of
ing as a leisure-time pursuit.
In Tuskegee In-.titute. Alabama,
for example, the answer came as
a winged ho.se named Pegasus.
Borrowing the idea from the
Greek myth of the winged horse
who carried the Muses through the
heavens,-the Hollis Burke Frissell
Library and the local chapter of
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, has
made Pegasus, in the form of a
winged, wooden horse pin, the
transport emblem to sunmier-time
adventures of reading delight for
hundreds of school-age children.
(“Ride the Winged Horse” is de-
signed to stimulate good reading

among sixth, seventh and eighth-
graders. 1
National Library Week (April
3-9), seems an apporpriate tune to
look to the days of summer ahead
and resolve that each member of
the family spend mme time with
good books.
Why should reading rank high
as a leisure-time activity?
There are, of course, more rea¬
sons than will be named here, but
try these as starters. Reading is:

brary will make available not only
