In a recent article by Booth Tarkington in The Indianapolis Times, Tarkington commented on the fact that the average American borrows less than three books a year from the public libraries. ■ He further emphasized the fact that the three great factors in any child’s life are his heredity, his environment, and the books he reads. “Give your children good books,” he pleads. According to Indianapolis public library statistics, the average Indianapolis child reads twenty-three books a year. All books in the children’s room are recommended as wholesome reading. Any child is privileged to borrow books from the central library or any of its branches. Some attractive new titles: “SUSANNA AND TRISTRAM” (by Marjorie Hill Allen) —In which Susanna, sixteen years old. and Tristram, ten, assist in the escape of slaves in the days prior to the Civil War. “VAINO. A BOY OP NEW FINLAND" (by Julia D. Adams)—Vaino is a young boy at school in Helsinfors at the outbreak of the Red Revolution. Into the modern story are woven Finnish legends full of beauty and poetry. WHITE CAPTAIN” (by Georgia Fraser)—A story of John Smith in 1607, the young white captain who attempts to found a colony in Virginia. His sojourn in America is both an adventure in colonization and a personal love story when he meets Matoka, or Pocahontas, an Indian princess. “PERILOUS SEAT” (by Caroline Snedeker)—A Pythian festival at Delphi during the period of the Greek struggles with Persia plunges the reader of this book nto the life and spirit of ancient Hellas. A story of charm and historical value which will appeal to older boys and girls. “BOYS AND SALLY” (by Rose B. Knox) —Sally and her brother, Van, pay a long visit to their uncle and aunt on a cotton plantation in Alabama. The lively Sally Is the center of all activities whether It be possum hunting or cotton picking. The story gives a good picture of the Southland. Old Violin at Princeton B|/ Times Special PRINCETON.

CULTURAL RADIO ’SCHOOL' TO BE COUNCILS GOAL National Advisory Board to Discuss Vast ‘Adless’ Broadcast. * When the National advisory Council on Radio in Education meets in New York May 21, it will discuss plans for adless broadcasting of programs of a general cultural nature through a gigantic chain of stations. Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations are financing the council for three years after which they will place $100,000,000 in the hands of suitable agencies if it is found that the money can be used to advantage in adless broadcasting. Luther L. Dickerson, Indianapolis city librarian, is chairman of the library committee of the council. He will suggest material that may be interesting and appropriate for school children as well as adults. “We intend to find out what methods are sound and successful in broadcasts of school programs, talks and the like.’’ Dickerson said. “I expect that we will have a key city in each state. Volunteer listenersin will make systematic reports to local councils who will suggest changes in technique and subject matter.” “We are not thinking much of immediate results, but of development of experience in methods of presentation which will be useful in future programs."

“We are allowing more for old tires than they are actually worth to motorists,” Art Rose stated. “This, together with the low prices on Miller Geared-to-the-Road Tires eliminates the need for Tiding on smooth or thin tires.” The Rose Tire Cos. offers motorists the convenience of a charge or budget plan of purchase. The store is open each evening until 9:30 p. m. The Rose Tire Radio program is a regular feature on Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday at 6:35 p. m. over WKBF.
