"The average man wastes every day a certain amount of time which he could devote to reading good books and becoming acquainted with the best in literature," said Dr. Harold Leonard Bowman, pastor of First Presbyterian church, in an address to the City club yesterday noon on "The Busy Man and His Reading." ' "The average business man Is not well read because he doesn't read about subjects outside of his own line of work," said Dr. Bowman. "He tries to keep up with all the news In his trade papers and magazines. The price a business man pays for success is professional provincialism. "Busy men often confine their read ing to newspapers and weekly and monthly magazines. It is a good thing for a man to read the newspapers to keep in touch with the news of the world, but the newspaper gives him no permanent value in mental train ing, for it strives to keep him in formed principally bn events of the day." Dr. Bowman declared that little benefit Is derived by readers of some periodicals of wide circulation. He ex-essed the firm belief that Fhere ometh - bein o Ever since the early 7Vt Gliirardelli'i Ground Chocolate has been acknowledged the iripnal ground chocolate the chocolate of proved purity, the chocolate of certainty.
