Family Bookshelf " A few. words on the reading of mystery stories, together with a list of some of the best auth ors, is deserving of our attention . this week. Public librarians have long recognized and -supplied ; the public demand for this field of literature because they have : believed that the reading of mystery stories is one of the ' best remedies for mental fa tigue. Such works provide per ; feet relaxation and ideal, enter tainment . . ' Publishers yreekly, 'a book 'publishers' trade journal, fur nishes interesting facts and fig ure based on a survey of mys- ; tery reading and tastes conduct ed by the Columbia University ? press among 2200 readers of its literary magazine "Pleasures of Publishing." Most of the regular . subscribers to this - magazine were found to be mystery story readers. It was found that such readers read at least one mys tery a week. Eighty-seven per cent of the women read myster ies as against seventy-five per cent of the men, and the women read more crime novels per month than the men. This survey seems to bear out observations made in Salem that women are the most avid mystery fans. In the Columbia university press survey women authors led the popularity poll among both men and women readers.' Favor-. Ite authors, in order, were Doro thy SayerSi Agatha Christie, Ar thur Conan Doyle, Nagio March, Erie Stanley Gardner, EUery Queen, Marjorie Allingham and Rex Stout Favorite detective characters were Lord Peter' Wimsey (Cayers), Hercule Por iot (Christie), Sherlock Holmes (Doyle), Perry Mason (Gard ner), Inspector Alleyn (Marsh), Nero Wolfe, (Stout), and Albert Campion (Allingham). Just why women seem to dom inate the mystery field is left to one's own conclusion. Perhaps it is a matter of greater imagi nation and natural inclination for intrigue on the part of cer tain women that makes them excel in this kind of writing. Men authors still dominate the field of so-called tough myster ies, but it is seldom that such' stories ever become really pop ular.. Another conclusion or ob ' servation is that mystery novels only rarely reach the best seller list among all classes of litera ture." At the library we know that while mystery readers- form only a small part of the reading public, there is no doubt they are the most difficult to please, yet the most enthusiastic sup porters once they discover au thors to their taste. Just as "ball fan" typifies an enthusiastic fol lower of baseball, "mystery fan aptly denotes the real mystery story reader. - l - ' ' ' .- ' ' ; -. i . - ; Daughters , of Union Veterans will hold their annual widows and wives tea at the home of Mrs. Jack Cutler at 2270 Maple avenue on Thursday. . iPnadPTnEirnxiDM For Your FREE moth-probfirig!
