Delaware College Library.

The general Library at Delaware Col
lege, which was cramped in its growth last
year by reason of reduction in the usual
library appropriation, has this year resumed
its normal increase. About $50 volumes
have already been added during the present
collegiate year and others are to be bought.
Delaware College, in distributing its
books through number OF departmental
libraries, has followed the example Of the
larger colleges. OF the 10, coo books owned
by the College and the Experiment. Station
only ABOUT 1000 are housed in the General
Library. These include books proper to
literature, history, biography, mental and
moral philosophy, political economy and
political science, travel, scientific works OF
popular character, works Of reference and
bound volumes OF periodicals.
The departmental libraries include some
thousands Of volumes distributed through
the departments of engineering, physics,
chemistry, mathematics biology, agricul-
ture, ancient languages and modern Ian
guages. The departmental Libraries are
abreast of the times, save, indeed, the lib
raries belonging to the departments OF
ancient languages and modern languages.
The libraries Of these departments grow
slowly because there is very little money
available for the purchase OF hooks proper
to those departments.
The purchases of this year for the Gen
eral Library have been directed toward
strengthening the Library in American
History, the History of Modern Europe
especially in this century, dramatic litera-
ture, and literary criticism. Next year the
library should be strengthened in early
English Literature and early American
Literature. The Library should also be
strengthened in local history. Gifts Of books

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK.
Letter From State Superintendent Geo
H. Mock.
DEAR FELLOW WORKERS :

II. MUCK.
DEAR FELLOW WORKERS:
One OF the topics often discussed at
Sunday School Conventions is ''What the
home can do for the Sunday School," 1t
il so important that it fails to become
thread-ba Not all fathers and mothers
are closely identified with Sunday School
work, but hope there are few who feel no
interest in such movement. While these
letters are intended mainly for the workers,
many Of whom are parents, yet some other
parents may glance at what l write. We
venture, therefore, a few hints. The home
can do much for the Sunday School,
LIST. 1t can exalt the Sunday School.
cause the children to believe it is great
agency for good. Children's estimate OF
anything is gagged by the parents esti-
mate. If you speak slightingly OF the
work, your children will speak slightingly
Of it, ard much OF the effort in their behalf
is negatived.
Cd. The home can help in the preparation
Of the lessons. You are very particular to
have your children prepare their day school
lessons. You certainly cannot think thai
lessons in Gods word are less important
3rd. Parents can so arrange household
matters that the children can get to school
promptly and regularly.
4th, The parent can help and encourage
by manifesting in some way appreciation
Of the teachers work. A word is some
times potent for good. Your expressed
gratitude would be large and precious
part OF the teachers 'income," which
never represents dollars and cents.
9Th. The parents can pray for the teacher
and the school. That which we pray for
earnestly and frequently increases steadily
in preciousness.
JoTTINGs.-I visited Sunday School
recently, after an absence Of twelve months
and was both pleased and surprised to see
much larger attendance and added in
terest and brightness. | discovered the
reason-they had Home Department of
160 members. l invited a successful sup
erintendent to discuss theme at one OF
our institutes. He replied, ~ am not
talking superintendent, but try to make it
up in work" This is much better-some
superintendent talk their schools almost
to death-the death OF the school. An un
tried new method should never displace
tried and good old method. Some schools
need return to the old-fashion religion
more than they need new methods. A
Sunday School full OF methods and empty
Of piety, reminds me of FURNISHED engine
1T is useless without power.
QUESTIONS ANswERED.-Q. Does the
Maryland Sunday School Union intend to
hold State Convention this year? A.
Yes, don't fail to come. @. Should Sun
day School be denomnatonal in its teach
ing? A. 1t is urged that every school have
supplemental instruction in the doctrines
and government Of the denomination to
which it belongs.
