YESTERDAY´S CLASSICS CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA

GETTING READY FOR ADVENTURES

MANY years ago there lived in Spain a very oldfashioned gentleman whom you would have been glad to know. This gentleman had so many odd ways and did so many strange things that he not only amused his neighbors and distressed his friends, but made himself famous throughout the world.

What his real name was, no one outside of his village seemed to know. Some said it was this, some said it was that; but his neighbors called him “the good Mr. Quixana,”

Like many other gentlemen, Mr. Quixana did not work much. He spent almost all his time in reading, reading, reading.

He was seldom seen without a book in his hand. When the weather was fine he would sit in his little library, or under the apple trees in his garden, and read all day. He often forgot to come to his meals. He was so wrapped up in his books that he forgot his horse, his dog, and even his niece. He forgot his friends; he forgot himself. Sometimes he sat up and read all night.

Now, what kind of books do you suppose he read?.........

And now is your turn. Invented which adventures will have Don Qixote. Leave your comentary with one adventure invented for you.
