At attCcnt meeting Of the trustees Of
the Slry kcr Library Association. n plan
"Hs considered for the ss,sl lishmeEt of Il
public EeAdirg room in connection with
the Library, aud committee was ap-
pointed to devise means for tffecting this
purpose
Il Was found shortly after that mum
Der of the young men of our city were
considering a similar project, and a con-
ference was propo sed, with the result
that, after several meetings, II has been
determined To proceed if the necessary
aid can hc obtaincd.
The plan ne now projected is to estab-
lish pleasant rooms for resort and recre-
alton, with newspapers, periodicals and
other reading matter, unobiectionable
games, and gymnasium, TO be opened
each weekday evening. II is to afford a
place where men may meet one another
and spend AN evening without demoralz
ing surroundings, aud at the same time
enjoy the privilege of good reading and
exercise Us they may be disposed.
There is to be no organized club or as
socia,ion, and all active supporters of the
project will he upon an equality, ire
specIive of contributions; and any man
may have the same free use Of the rooms,
upon the simple condition of gentIemanly
conduct.
10 order tO give permsnencc aud sta
bility to the undertaking, the young men
VINO were first interested have selected a
permanent Advising Board. who shall
control the funds, appoint committees,
! and have charge generally OF tbs admins
ttSlinn. This board has been chosen from
the Trustees of the Stryker Library, with
authority 10 I'LL vacancies in its number,
and consists Of six members, rs follows;
Mr. John A. Anderson,
MIR. Warren A. Greene.
Mr.. Alexander l.. Gest,
Mr.. Frank H. Scobey,
The Row. Elvin X. Smith,
Mr.. james s. Studdford.
Ii is needless 10 shy that the want OF a
Men's Reading Room and Gymnasium
has long been felt, aud in endeavoring to
eslabl sh such here, we are but following
the example Of even many smaller places
than our own city. Each citizen has an
interest in il, as promotion of the welfare
OF many who are In danger of being led
astray and it Is hoped that sll may be 90
impressed Az 10 contribute literally and
permanently Ia its support.
Ii 10 estimated that the sum Of 5000
will be sufficient for furnishing the rooms
and maintaining them durlng the first
year, and that half of that sum will be
required yearly, thereafter.
II liz desired that contributors indicate
the amount they Will give at once, and
also the geGiH amount thereafter con
dltoned on their continued ability. The
appeal is made to all our townspeople,
both men and women, who have at least
the devotion Of our young men and The
general welfare OF the community.

to interest farmers in advertising is in

the advertising pay, but it is good

cerned. A farmer for example, has
cattle to sell. A brief announcement
to that effect will often send him q

sell some fine hogs. A three-line want
ad, costing perhaps twenty-five cents

Gu the School Question.

Chatham CitEen.J
There are two classes Of people op-
posing local taxation for schools. The
first are those who are opposed to
public schools, or, at least, opposed to
being taxed for the support of such
schools. They claim that it 10 wrong
for the government to take money out
OF their pocket to educate other peo-
pies children.
Such people do not claim to do any
thing for philanthropy's sake alone :;
they lay no claim to that patriotism
which gives its life or any part of it to
the good of the State in general in
which they live. All they claim is 81
am honest. l will work and pay for
what l own. will give you dollar
only when you can show me where
just such q dollar or one little better
is coming back to me-"
They try to measure every benefit by
dollars and cents. To such we wish
to address few questions. Did you
ever stop to think about whether or
not is it right for the government re-
quire you to help pay the cost Of pros
ecuting q highway rObber who as
money! Oh, but you say, get benefits
from that in the protection to society
and property rights. But did you
ever stop to ask yourself what gives
you any society to pr0tectP Did you
ever stop to compare the material
welfare Of the country with the intel
lectualp Did you ever ask yourself
why educated people can come here
and make money of such resources as
we had never known how to use? Did
you ever think about whether or not
yOuwould like for the next genera
tion Of your State to have as good ad.
vantages as that enjoyed in other
States?
j There is another class who favor
public schools but think we have Al
much as we can use. No one of these
however, will contend that the schools
we have are efficient as they shoul(
be. No one will contend but that il
they are so improved the people
will have that confidence in them tina
they have in private schools the at.
tendance will be increased and t b.
benefits multiplied. Is there any WAY
to do this without more money.
