as　a　few　books　or　many—every　one　of　them　dogeared　and　dilapidated；　shaken　and　loosened　by　continual　use；　marked　and　scribbled　in　from　front　to　back。　This　man　owns　books。

Why　is　marking　up　a　book　indispensable　to　reading　it？　First；　it　keeps　you　awake。　And　I　don’t　mean　merely　conscious；　I　mean　wide　awake。　In　the　second　place；　reading；　if　it　is　active；　is　thinking；　and　thinking　lends　to　express　itself　in　words；　spoken　or　written。　The　marked　book　is　usually　the　tbought…through　book。　Finally　writing　helps　you　remember　the　thoughts　you　had；　or　the　thoughts　the　author　expressed。

If　reading　is　to　acplish　anything　more　than　passing　time；　it　must　be　active。　You　can’t　let　your　eyes　glida　across　the　Jinns　of　a　book　and　e　up　with　an　understanding　of　what　you　have　read。　The　books　you　read　for　pleasure　cad　be　read　in　a　state　of　relaxation；　and　nothing　is　lost。　But　a　great　book　rich　in　ideas　and　beauty；　a　book　that　raises　and　tries　to　answer　great　fundamental　questions；　demands　the　most　active　reading　of　which　you　are　capable。　If；　when　you’ve　finished　reading　a　book　the　pages　are　filled　with　your　notes；　you　know　that　you　read　actively。

But　you　may　ask；　why　is　writing　necessary？　Well；　the　physical　act　of　writing；　with　your　own　hand；　brings　words；　and　sentences　more　sharply　before　your　mind　and　proseryes　them　better　in　your　memory。　To　set　down　your　reaction　to　important　words　and　sentences　you　have　read；　and　the　questions　they　have　raised　in　your　mind；　is　to　preserve　those　reactions　and　sharpen　those　questions。

Even　if　you　wrote　on　a　scratch　pad；　and　threw　timpaper　away　when　you　had　finished　writing；　your　grasp　of　the　book　would　be　surer。　But　you　don’t　have　to　throw　the　paper　away。　The　margins　（top　and　bottom；　as　welt　as　side）；　the　end…paper
