THAT more boys read than girls.
That boys read better books than girls.
That boys read more instructive books than girls.
That boys read more history and historical stories.
That boys read more travel books.
That boys read a lot of books on how to do things and how to make things.
That there are ever so many books that tell girls helpful, useful, and interesting things to do and to make, but the girls do not as a rule read them.
That the boys read a book on how to make something and then they make that particular something. They tell the librarian about it.
That boys read books that give them a more general knowledge of all things.
That girls prefer story books for the most part.—Detroit News Tribune.
