are opening wide their doors to admit the children and youth of the land many an ambitious young man and woman and progressive parents who must stay at home are asking if there are not some plans to help them to grow in intelligence It is this very general inquiry that leads The ree Press to give an account of one of the most successful educational institutions of the day Twelve years ago the Bay View Reading club was started and so quietly has it been working that thou sands of ree Press readers may not be aware of the magnitude reached by this organization which has itsheadquarters in this city In these twelve vears the courses of the Bay View club won almost international fame for they are being taken now by clubs from Sitka Alaska to Santi ago Chili from the Bahamas to the Hawaiian islands Over 1200 other literary clubs have adopted them among which are six of De best study clubs It is a com ment which wilt "interest other clubs which will be seeking for better plans that when a club begins using the Bay: View course if it is imbued with the right literary spirit it nearly al ways becomes permanently wedded to the work Two of the Detroit clubs have taken it for twelve consecutive years The work is far from being confined to clubs for hundreds of peo ple all over this country and urmany other lands are pursuing it by them selves The organization now offers a choice of three courses on Russia and Japan rance and Austria and on Germany Belgium and Denmark One of the secrets of the success of the Bay View Reading club remains to be the personal direc lion given by its founder Hall In the work he is ably assisted by Mrs Anna Swale the general secretary and Miss Anna White associate editor of the Bay View Magazine On" of the charms of the work is That it lias never become common through loud and indiscriminate advertising Mr Hall is still at the head of the work and persons who arc interested can always get full information by ad dressing him at 165 Boston
