WHAT WORKMEN READ.
scope and nature 0f the American
workman's literary interests reveals
these facts:
Only about one workman (lit of fifty
doesn’t read anything. About 97 1-2 per
cent. read fiction magazines; 63 1-2
per cent read business, technical and
trade publications; 40 per cerit. read
novels; 19 per sent. read “classic" lit-
erature; about 18 per cent. read re-
views of current events; nine per cent.
read magazines dealing with travel,
outdoor and geography. the same num-
ber read scientific magazines; 6 per
cent. read socialistic publications;
about. 3 per cent. are giVeu to reading
the Bible.
On the whole, it’s a verykgood show-
ing, revealing a high average of lit-
eracy and a greater appreciation of
"good reading" than could be found
in any other country, with the possible
exception of Germany and Scandina-
via. \i‘hon it comes to keep in touch
