4 cited under Recommended Reading. Clubs that wish to study these writers further may be fortunate enough to find translations in their library, or they may purchase them.

Some of the books mentioned in the bibliography are not now in print, but as the list of authorities on Russian literature is not a large one it has been thought wise to make references to them, as they may already be on the library shelves. Material found in books not containing sufficient matter to recommend for purchase has not been mentioned, neither have biographies been referred to. A number of references to old periodicals are given, since there is a dearth of material about some authors. These, of course, will be found in the larger libraries only.

In planning the work for the separate meetings it is suggested that the two individuals responsible for the papers may either do all the work themselves, they may assign the points for each paper to different members, or they may ask the club as a whole to look them up.

The Recommended Reading represents the general consensus of opinion of critics as to the best work of the various authors.

It is hoped that the quotations given may stimulate an interest in, and a better understanding of the different writers.
