CHILD’S MEW OF BOOKS IS \ BIG PROBLEM Effort Made to Overc6me Mistaken Tendency to Avoid Reading. NEEDS OF LIBRARY GROW BY CHARLES- E. RCSH, LIBRARIAN. One of the big problems of the school today la to persuade the school children that books are not bores, but the most pleasant of companions; that Just because their geometry, their history or some other subject they are struggling with is presented to them through a book they need not infer that all books are the I avowed enemies of boys and girls—to be L avoided as much as possible. I They must find that most dellghtfhl {moments may be spent with the printed page (and that the Public Library offers free of charge of the highest entertaiunier t, the heartiest laughs and the keenest ei jjyment). Through its school librar'es division the Public Library sends out books to the school classrooms. As it is purely optional with the child whether he reads the book 9, he finds himself attracted by the animal anti fairy pictures and by the bright colored backs of some of the books. Before he knows it he is learning *by his own fireside in the evening delightful things in the life of an Eskimo whom he heard about iu his geography class that day. It is n real feather in the cap of the very small boy when he finds that there are actually library books in words small enough and print large enough for him to read by himself. FINDS BOOKS HIS FRrENDS. Through such book collections for classrooms the book has come to be an admirable friend, sometimes even a mighty counselor in the art of making things with one's hands out of such available things in one’s pockets as string, nails, paper and wire. When there are no uncles or grandfathers near to tell an Indian story books can tell them quite as well. Books, too, answer the many questions of children much more satisfactorily than the elders can. A book in the pocket of an Indianapolis school child is coming to occupy quite as important a post as his top or his knife. The first school libraries sent out here and there in small collections of books two years ago have aised a mad clamor from children all over the city for animal stories, stories of fairies and of chib dren in other lands, adventure stories and books on electricity and engineering for boys. It has become a regular Frankenstein that threatens to overpower us unless it can be provided with the books that it demands. SITUATION TO BE REMEDIED. ** The situation is not one to he d-r>alred of, but certainly one to be remedied. It Is the fault of neither person nor organization, b'ut a sign of progress. We are outgrowing our skirts. Due to both economic and legislative conditions, it is not possible at present to increase the book budget. It is but reasonable that the library should turn to the parents and friends of these children to help find a way out. It cannot be possible that their elders want these children told day after day: “No. neither Little Women nor Robinson Crusoe Is In. Now run along and play." Yet this is virtually what the library assistants must say over and over. The school libraries division must turn down cot individual children but whole classrooms of them, simply because there are not books to send them. Even when it Is possible to send collections, they are never the amount asked for by the teachers and are often too few to go around. Some children have no other point of contact with the library and the classroom collection opens up anew book world to them. CITIZENS NOT INDIFFERENT. Indianapolis is not indifferent. Individually her citiezns will see to it that good books be made as accessible to her ’ children as the water they drink. This interest will be expressed through endowment funds, wills and large aqd •mall donations of money, as well as of books from her large-minded citizens. They will come to realize that the world of books is the rightful inheritance of every growing boy and girl. The book needs for the high school students are quite as pressing. .The library does not wish to register Itself in the minds of these young people as a bureau for disappointments and yet it is fast acquiring this name. Students naturally should expect the public library to have for them the standard works of fiction on their required reading lists, but even such books as Scott, Dickens and Eliot are quite at a premium, as they are rarely to be found on the shelves. Some of the required reading the library does Dot even possess, ns it has been read to pieces and cannot be replaced. Many have had their patience tried at these empty shelves. It has been suggested that some of the graduating classes might like to leave as a gift and a blessing to the classes to follow a bountiful collection • t the library of the very hooks they have experienced such difficulty In getting. A special book plate provided by the library would designate the class which left these books. Many homes have idle sets of these standard authors which they would like to offer for public use through the library. The library has earnest need of you, your money, your books, your good wrishes and the influence you may have for her among your acquaintances. Will you prove her very good friend?

Legion Quotes Washington in Loyalty Plea Officers Cite Prominence of February in Teaching of Patriotism. A Joint statement by the officers of the Marion County Council of the American Legion was issued last night in commemoration of the anniversary of George Washington. It reads: “February is the greatest month for the teaching of patriotism and national service. The two great national heroes, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, whose birthdays we celebrate, give distinction to the month, and no time could be more propitious for inculcating a deeper understanding of the blessings of American citizenship and renewing the spirit of loyalty to our American institutions. “Ttie deeds of Washington, and the great principles for which he stood, embodied at all times the resolute ideals and high motives which inspired the American Legion to dedicate itself to uphold and defend the Constitution of the l nited States and to foster and perpetuate 100 per cent Americanism, and tt is held fitting and proper on this memorable date to call on every man and woman who served their country In Its hour of need to again come forward to service of God and country by rallying to the support of the American Legion, as a special tribute to the Father of our country. ✓ “In issuing this appeal to those who served iu time of war it will not be Inappropriate to Include tlie words of George Washington, in hla farewell address to -the American people Sept. 17, 1796, when he said: “ ‘Toward the preservation of your Government, and the permanency of your present happy state, It Is requisite not only that you steadily discountenance irregular opposition to its acknowledged authority but also that you resist with care the spirit of Innovation upon"* Its principles, however specious tue pretext.’ ’’ The statement was signed by J. F. Cantwell, chairman of the council; H. C. Ketrham, first rice president, and E. O. Hobbs, treasurer.
