8 THE CHIMES COMPANIONS Bett) ' Bartington, ' 35 I can think of nothing so cleHghtful as spending several hours among books — old, musty, famous books, new, illustrious, and glam- orous books. A book store has a certain fascination. Once you walk into it, you l)ecome a part of it, carefully lifting the volumes from their shelves, and with a most exciting feeling, looking again into the heart of an old acquaintance. A book that you really love will hold you spellbound for many long hours. Little do you care for warmth, nor do you notice where you are seated. You are traveling in Paris with the author or crying your heart out with Hugo ' s Cossette, who has been mis- treated; or you are happy and careless with Don Quixote. Other- times you are making the l eautiful scenes of Rio de Janeiro a pare of your life; or you are on the deck of a four-masted schooner braving a gale, or in the heart of the desert with Lawrence during an Arab attack. Never do I see a book without thinking of its struggle for exis- tence. Long ago the Bal)ylonians wrote their accounts of events upon pressed clay with sharp instruments which were difficult to handle. Later they used harder substances, such as wood, ivory, or lead, until the Egyptians found that by crudely placing papyru-s reeds together they could have a smooth sheet on which they could write and draw. The monks of the monastaries in heat or severe cold meticulously copied with a quill the words of the authors. Very often at the end of a book the monks would write a colophon such as this for the reader : I pray you good readers who may use this book, ,do not forget him who copied it (which was brought from a foreign country) endured cold, and was obliged to finish in the night
