' ' ! l '.1 N 15 Library I lot At The Perl: Monday and Tuesday MARGARET JOHNSTON COUNTY LIBRARIAN RURAL READING Over and over again I am asked "Just what do the rural women read" any way? This is a good chance to answer that question. In my visits to clubs I took all kinds of books from Iist3 of "Good Reading" for Home Demonstration CluMs, on the day of the meetings I selected around 25 30 books trying to h3ve something from the new list for each club. I have taken fiction, travel, personal ex periences, poetry, nature, history and problems of the world today Including atomic energy, o.her countries, United Nations, etc. , For your information I checked up on the 203 books which the dub women have already reported on at club meetings this-year. It is an interesting list and as you study you will find many types, ' From1 the new books I find bio graphies and personal experiences leading, with the following already having been discussed. This I Remember by Eleanor Roosevelt, Autobiography of Will Rogers, With A Feather on my Nose by Billie Burke, Dear Mr. President. . ., Prophet in the Wilderness by Al bert Schweitzer, Roosevelt and Hopkins, Jesse James was my Neighbor by Homer Croy, Thread that Runs So True by Jesse Stu art, Death Be Not Proud by John Gunter, and Hearing Is Believing by M. H. Heiner. New fiction includes Bfg Fisher man by L. C. Douglas, Long Love by John SedgesDouble Muscadine by Frances Gaither, Summer's Tale by G. W.

Marshall, Kissing Kit by Elswyth Thane, Trembling Years by E. O. Barber, and Come Clean My Love by Rosemary Taylor. The reports show other recent books.

OcherMflntf toakst Jaebvle the Mature Mind, Devil's Tramping Ground, Other Young Americans and Bright Design. Incidentally one lady told me that nine others read Bright Design while she had it..- .

Other popular ones are No Life For A Lady, No Time For Tears, 70 Miles From A Lemon, Land of the Crooked Tree .and Lanterns On the1 Levee. . Humor and personal experiences are ever in demand and they in elude things from the days of Grandma Calls it Carnal to Cheap er by the Dozen.

Although he wasn't married to him at the time, Mrs. Patti Lewis Was responsible for the line which has become Lewis' trademark; "Are you for real?" . . ,. "I met her in Detroit where we were both doing a vaudeville show," Lewis recalled. "She was singing with Jimmy Dorsey's orchestra and was doing a comedy single." During an afternoon rehearsal Lewis introduced himself and in formed the lady she could cancel her other dinner dates because she was to have th honor of dining with him. Patti turned her back on htm coolly and remarked: "Are you for real?" ... ... , Happy, Ending "She must have been impressed, though," Lewis said, "because she married me three months later." Lewis immediately stuck the re mark into the routine he now does with Dean Martin in night clubs and in their current Hal wallis movie at Paramount, "My Friend Irma Goes West." V The Lewis family tiog, a springer spaniel, is responsible for Lewis' mugging! act in which he sticks out his lower, lip and looks sad. "I just look like the dog when I do it," he said. And the Comic credits his young son, Gary, with the "boo-boo" rou tine he gses in his act. During one of the, numbers Martin slugs Lewis and Lewis starts "crying" and com plaining about his injury, or "boo boo" as he calls it. "I heard my boy use the expres sion one night at home," Lewis said , "The next night I put it in our repertoire. "Maybe I should fire my writers and put my wife, son and dog on the payroll." MRS.
