OUTLINES FOR CLUB STUDY 



There are several sources of material for club study: not only the book, 

 the magazine, the government and state biilletins, but one's own experi- 

 ence and observation. The final outcome of study should be so to digest 

 printed material as to make it a part of one's self. Added to life experi- 

 ence and to observation, study properly done helps to make a cultured 

 individual. 



The bulletins sent to the clubs from month to month are not a sufficient 

 study of any subject. We are therefore giving references to books, which 

 may be seciired from dealers, borrowed from a library, or included in a 

 traveling library.* 



After reading thoroughly a subject for a talk, a paper, or a discussion, 

 it is helpful to have an outline furnished suggesting material to be pre- 

 sented. We are giving outlines of various subjects that have been pre- 

 sented in the Cornell Reading-Course, as a help to club officers in the 

 preparation of programs for their clubs or as a help to individuals in 

 preparing papers:
