LIBRARY COLLECTION DESCRIBES HISTORY OFlCEftTRAC VEST

V. ; (By Aisoettd PrM) ? " CHICAQCV Feb. 23. -The Intimate story of the initial settlement of the .ventral west is being laid out at the

V; .University of Chicago so that for the s' iflrat Urn he. whose time is brief may

r". read the tale- The university libraries tUte just bringing ta aTrtoaeeight years vJbf work on'Uieifateeflieatrof Cpfe

flection regarded here as unquestionably the best oLits kind. - Throueh the acquisition of this ma-

- terial and the way in which it has

been made readily usable, the univer

sity librarians believe that cnicago hereafter will be one of the chief centers, if not the first, for the study of r '.he . history of the opening of the American west The collection and work on it has thus far coat the university more than $50,000. Telia Kentucky History. It is to the history of Kentucky, the first state to be organized west of the Alleghanies. that the university's treasures chiefly relate. Its thanks " for there being such a collection belong to Col. Reuben T. Durrett.a. Louisville editor, who gathered everything about Kentucky that he could lay his ' hands on. In many another western or southern state such acquisitions-might have ah interest chiefly local, but the fact that when the . Virginia emigrants crossed the mountains into Kentucky., they began the opening of the west, gives their diaries, journals and documents peculiar significance, t Among the chief prizes of the collection are the minutes of the last five conventions at .which the Kentucky . jsettlers asked statehood. Between 1784 and. 1788 they held no less than 11 conventions. The records of the last district convention, at which the. fjrat state constitution in the'-west .-. was drawn up, are to be found. here. So are also the-papers of the first west- . em governor, Isaac Shelby.

Madison's Letters Shewn. One' of, the choice exhibits of the collection consists of a plea for support of the adoption of the constitution of the United States addressed by James Madison, later president, to the Kentuckians. At that early date Kentucky was a part of Virginia, and Madison wrote Col. George Nicholas, a Virginian going west, urging him to get the Kentucky counties to send favorable delegates to the Virginia convention that was to consider adoption of the federal constitution. Edward A, Henry in charge of the collection, reports" these letters have never been published. r More than two hundred gallons of whisky iwere subscribed for the support of one of Kentucky's early ministers, according to one of the curiosities of the collection. This is a subscription list, passed around in 1807, for the Rev. Joshua Lacy Wilson. Monroe School ! The seventh and eighth grades will s-ive a Washington program at chapel Wednesday morning. Monroe high school authorities are endeavoring to complete arrangements whereby pupils and all others will be offered a real treat in some exceedingly practical phases of modern science for the home aDd farm. This Is not to be confused with the school carnival. Experts from nearby cities have virtually agreed to present demonstrations of the gas engine in cross section and actual operation, as well as actual exhibits and explana tions of the use of electricity and its modern applications. The primary purpose in procuring this exhibit U to furnish, the science and SmithHughe8 classes with such a clear understanding of modern machinery and principles as cannot possibly be obtained from books. But it Is also believed that very few men and women know all they would like to . know about the inner myeteries, joys and rorrows of gasoliDe, kerosene and electrical equipment, and. so the doors would be open to all. It would be a Kieat advantage if the people would l-t. the teachers "know if they are interestpd and would attend such a meeting. There would be no cost to the school nor to the audience. Such an affair probably has not been attempted outside the sta.te universities. This valuable proexam would likely! be given on some Friday afternoon in March. The show for Feb. 30 is "Fair and Warmer." a hilarious farce starring Mav Ala-son. the favorite comedienne. This is an exceedingly humorous show, and if it hurts you to laueh bring a doctor with you.
