Eifficient Libraries Public libraries are necessities, something that is not overlooked by even the smallest community. The towns of Wayne county are fortunate in having public minded citizens who are keeping this fact in mind constantly. Recently the residents of Fountain City put on a drive to obtain funds to buy additional books for their library, and a few days ago the librarians of this section of Indiana warmly commended the progressive features of the Cambridge City library. The Morrisson-Reeves library of Richmond is a popular institution here. Several features are noticeable in the Cambridge City library. Librarians warmly v commended the location of the library on one of the
principal streets of the city, where citizens can
not fail to see it and to take advantage of its facilities. A . central location for a library in a small
town i3 a decided factor in its popularity. The larger cities cannot hope to have their library buildings on the main street, so that the small town has an advantage on which it should cap
italize without fail.
ArmfVioi feature rf the ramhnricp t;it.v in
brary which seemed to impress the visitors was
a window display. A setting of spring gave an opportunity to display books and pamphlets
which pertain to gardening, agriculture, flower growing and the like. The management was linking the season with the books that pertain to it, surely a most admirable way to supply the residents of that town with acceptable literature of a highly practical nature. This element of library management brings the facilities of the institution into the homes of the residents. A vast collection of books, reposing idly on the shelves because the public knows nothing about their presence or because their attention has not been aroused by an appeal, does the community no good. The library might just as well not exist, for its facilities are dormant and unrecognized. The selection of books, as Prof. Harlow Lindley pointed out, should be made carefully. The interests of the persons in a community are not identical. If additions are selected without due regard for the needs of various classes, the library becomes lopsided in its reading material, and many residents are prevented from enjoying its benefits. The value of reading, not only from a recrea
tional standpoint, but also for the acquistion of
knowledge to be used in vocational affairs, is being recognized more and more. The state is trying to put books into the homes of its citizens. Strenuous efforts are made to see that isolated communities are not deprived from the enjoyment of books. A system of traveling libraries puts the volumes into the hands of many persons who otherwise would lack the privilege.

The theater managers nave got to do something about it. The competition from other sources Js becoming altogether too obnoxious. With the styles where they are, and getting more so all the time, people just sort of hate to go off the street and buy tickets for a musical show. They feel that, while they are in the theater they are missing something, for something worth while is liable to happen along the sidewalk at any moment. Some of the revue managers and producers are daring and really have gone about as far as they can with their costumes and remain within the law. But there are no restrictions placed on the !ndy in the street. She is uncensored, untrammeled and unterrified. During the intermissions the men in the audience rush out, grab thejr pass hecks and hurry to the sidewalk and a good many of them are late getting back into the show. "All the world's a stage," said Bill Shakespoke. He said it. Headline says: "Balfour Given Order of Garter for Arms Work."

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams. Author of "You Can." "Take It." "Up" " DON'T TRY TOO WARD , A large number of bur failings must be credited to our too intense trying. To decide to do a thing is of vaster importance than to determine to "try so hard" to do it If you try TOO hard you will worry yourself out of doing it at all! Our tasks must be mapped out and then -we must go right to them in happy heart and get them done. Many people use up all their strength in merely trying. I know a chap who has been trying for years to give up the cigarette habit. He bas never succeeded! I know of another who said that he was not going to smoke any more and who DIDN'T largely because he forgot about the task before him the minute that-he decided not to smoke any more. Don't TRY too hard! We need all the energies at our command for every task we do. We cannot give a part of them to useless worries, or unnecessary tests. I once read of a great awkward fellow who was footman to a rich man. One day he decided to 'sacrifice to God his life, with it3 pleasures; but that God had disappointed him, he having met with nothing but satisfaction in that state." The story of the various conversation of this man are told in a little book full of interesting observations and truths. When the occasion for practicing some virtue offered, he addressed himself to God in these words: "Lord, I cannot do this unless Thou enablest me." And then he tells us that strength came. And when he failed ho would confess in this fashion: "Lord, it is You who mu-t hinder my failing." And tl..n he would not worry any more. We need to pass on more. And to pay less heed to the thousand and one little irritations of the day that really have no need of us. Go ahead and do everything that you think will add to your own happiness and to the happiness of others but don't try too hard to be happy. Just be happy and let a good many of the unimportantcies of life take care of themselves.

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Age Today
Desiring to reorganize their street department, Mayor George Barnard and councilman Jameson, of Newcastle spent a day in the city on a junketing trip. They complimented the city
highly on the condition of the streets,
and were closeted with street com
missioner Genn for a long time while
making estimates and gathering data
on the street cleaning methods in vogue here. They also inspected the
fire departments with the view of gathering pointers for the erection of one of the new hose houses. The city
of Newcastle also expected to pur chase an auto truck.
HOLLYWOOD I made a trip to Hollywood, where movie actors dwell; for quite a while I'd understood the town resembled hell, that nothing flourished which was gco'J. and evil rang the bell. "Oh, nothing there is good or nice!" To this I had been wised; I looked to see all sorts of vice, as widely advertised; if I were murdered once or twice I wouldn't be surprised. But nothing happened while I stayed, to jar my saintly soul; no blatant vamps were on parade, no hophead pinched my roll; the dealers sold pink lemonade, none sold the Demon Bowl. Each dweller teemed to have some work to occupy his dome; there was no idleness to irk the gent who writes this pome; cn Sundays people went to kirk just as we do at home. And pretty gills and men polite I greeted everywhere; no vicious orgies were In sight, to fill me with despair; no wild carousels in the night disturbed the balmy air. Oh, Hollywood has had her crimes, which no one will deny, and sinful actors have at times consumed illicit rye, or pulled off dice games for the dimes, no peelers being nigh. But here in Pruneville, do we not have deeds of darkness, too? Was no one ever slugged or shot? Does no one make home brew. Does white robed virtue always trot along the road wiih you?

After Dinner Stories "There was one man whose life was perfect," said the preacher who had taken charge of the Sunday school class in the absence of the regular teacher. "Can any of you tell me
who he was?"
Little Johnny Burke, who had been following the activities of a fly attempting to go through the window, stuck a dirty fist in the air, and the preacher smiled at him to give his
answer.
"Sure. He wa3 mamma's first husband." "Yes," said the old man to his visitor, "I am proud of my girls and
would like to see them comfortably
married, and as I have made a little money they will not go penniless to their husbands. "There is Mary, 25 years old, and a really good girl, I shall give her $1,000 when she marries. Then comes Bet, who won't see 35 again. I shall give her $3,000, and the man who takes Eliza, who is 40, will have $5,000 with her." The young man reflected a while
and then asked. "You haven't onej

Make Your Table Attractive
Every housewife naturally wants to do this. Often one of the bars in the way is the matter of expense. But there are many excellent and economical foods which are neglected because the ways to cook and serve them attractively are not generally known. Rice is prominent among such foods. It is such an excellent food that wholo nations virtually live on it in some parts of the world. Yet it is seldom
used in many American households. There are many ways of making rice into very attractive dishes. The Department of Agriculture has taken an interest in this matter, and com-j
