Abstract

A concise statement of the problem of the thesis is “To discover the Free Reading Interests of Seventh and Eighth Grade Boys and Girls.” More specifically the study is for the purpose of discovering the amount, the character, and nature of the voluntary reading done by seventh and eighth grade pupils now enrolled in the public schools of Hays, Kansas. By "Free reading" is meant that which the pupil does because of his own volition rather than that done because of suggestions made by the teacher.
