SOLDIERS AMONG BEST PATRONS OF PUBLIC LIBRARY

Club Women, Too, Frequenting Institution More as Result of War. The circulation of books at the Morrison Reeves library has greatly increased since the war, Mrs. Ada L. Bernhardt, librarian, said Wednesday. V great many soldiers who have studies in army camps are frequentin? the reference rooms of the library. Many are also taking out books, but the majority spend their time in the reference library looking up material on automobiles, machinery, etc. Mrs. Bernhardt said also that the library has Just recently received some new books on auto repair work, machinery, automobiles, etc. Any persons interested are urged to use them. They are books that have been recommended by army training camps. Many are the same aa those that were used in camps. A great many soldiers are reading books on business of all kinds. Their interest in reading has been stimulated by the reading they did while in the service, the librarian says. People Reading More People in general are reading more. Tho reference rooms are being used. They have always been more or less patronized by students, teachers and professors, but club women and business men are using them, noticeably club women, as various topics are nowbeing discussed among club women. A record kept by the librarians during the month of March showing the matters that persons are looking up in the reference rooms discloses that women are interested in what women have got by the ballot, art treasures in the Louvre, Kennaisance literature, Woodrow Wilson and what he has done for the world, automobile accessories, the history of the Indian and

various other matters. The school children are using the library more and more each year, too. Earlham college has always patronized the library to a very large extent. Debating students have been using the reference rooms in preparing for ciebates which are now being considered. The art students at the high school have been using the library this year looking for art designs iu batik. Circulation Grows The circulation was more than 500 last month over that of a year ago. However, the library is not used as much as it should be, says the librarian. It can be utilized for many purposes and people should bear tltts in -mind, she says. "The large class of persons that use the library read the fiction. A large part of women do not read at all," says the librarian. "The war and women's suffrage may change this fact. Women's clubs are doing a great deal to stir women to the realization that they must keep abreast with the times. There are very few women who patronize the Morrisson-Reeves library outside of club women."

'monrge doctrine is

SAFE, CLAIMS EDITOR (By Associated Press) LONDON, March 27. In an editorial headed "A League of Nations or Ruin," The Daily Mail says: "It would be folly to overlook the

problems which must be solved. The most important of these is the Ameri- i can fear that the league of nations ' may involve some danger to the Mon-j

ice Doctrine. In actual fact the league will afford a fresh guarantee of that doctrine, which at the date of Its origin had the warm sympathy of British diplomacy. There is no reason why a provision giving the sanction of the league to the principles of Monroe should not be inserted in the . final constitution." Commenting on the situation in Hungary The Daily Chronicle says: "The position is that one of the defeated enemy states has broken the armistice and declared war on us. If we take up the challenge and rein-

i force our control the world will know

that despite war weariness, demobilization, strikes and disagreements, we sre still masters of Europe and arc determined to remain so until we establish the foundations of the new and better system for which we fought.

' But if we do not take action our im

potence will be naked before all, and many people besides the Magyars will hasten to take advantage of it."

BIG SHOE BILLS

"It looks as if I would not be able to wear out my shoes with Neolin Soles. They have been in service about a year, and are still good," writes W. C. Dickinson of New Haven, Conn. It is natural that shoes with Neolin Soles should wear a long time, for Neolin Soles give extra wear where most shoes wear out quickest. These long-lasting soles are made by Science to be especially tough and durable comfortable and waterproof, too. If you want to save money on shoes buy them with Neolin Soles. Good shoe stores carry them in many stylos for men, women, and children. And you can have your old shoes re-bottomed with Neolin Soles at any repair shop. Neolin Soles are made by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heels guaranteed to outwear all other heels. Heolifi Sole tnum Hut turn. U. S. Pt oar

Thin People Should Jake phosphate Nothing Like Plain Bitro-Phosphate to Put on Firm, Healthy Flesh and to Increase Strength, Vigor and Nerve Force. Judging from the countless preparations and treatments which are con tinually being advertised for the purpose of making thin people fleshy, developing arms, neck and bust, and re placing ugly hollows and angles by tha soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women, who keenly feel their excessive thinness. j Thinness and weakness are usually due to starved nerves. Our bodies reed more phosphate than is contained in modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing that will supply this tfieflciency so well as the organic phos phate known among druggists at bitrephosphate, which is Inexpensive and Is sold by Conkey Drug Co. In Richmond, and most all druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back. By feeding the nerves directly nnd by supplying the body cells with the necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro-phosphate Quickly produces a welcome transformation in the pppearance; the Increase in weight frequently being astonishing. LThis Increase in weight also carries . ith it a general improvemer 'n tho liealth. Nervousness, sleeplessness t nd lack of energy, which nearly always accompan' excessive thinness, foon disappear, dull eyes become Iright, and pale cheeks glow with the I loom of perfect health. CAUTION: Although bitro-phos-rhate is unsurpassed for relieving ervousness, sleeplessness and general weakness, it should not, owina; to its remarkable flesh-growing pro" irrties, be used by anyone who do i ' dffre to put n fi-"h.

Appeal to Wilson to Stop War Planned by Frenchman in 1914 (By Associated .Press) PARIS, Tuesday, March 25. During today's session of the trial of Baoul Villian, charged with the murder in 1914 of Jean L. Jaures, the French Socialist leader, Pierre Renaudel, who succeeded M. . Jaures in the Socialist leadership, quoted some of the words Jaures used in making known his decision to appeal personally to Presi

dent Wilson. Aug. 2, 1914, in an endeavor to have the president Intervene and avert the war. "There is only" one man who can etqp the conflict, and that Is President Wilson," M. Renaudel quoted Jaures as saying. "The assassin's bullet stopped Jaures appeal to President -Wilson's arbitration," M. Renaudel continues. "I will not say war would have been avoided, but if arbitration had been accepted time would have been gained. If arbitration would have been refused Germany would have appeared a criminal In the eyes of the world

and America would have entered the war two years Booner."
