The center Of population in the
United states has only passed twenty

years. 1t Is now at Columbus, lad. In
the preceding decade the center of
population moved forty-eight miles to
the westward, and the average progress.
sion in that direction has been about
fifty miles each ten years. This pro-
gression has always followed close to
the thirty ninth parallel, passing near
Baltimore, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Den

The veteran editor of the Kendall
vile News says: "The young man who
puts his shoulder to the wheel and
lsbors is always respected more than q
dressed-up dude. 1t matters not so
much what kind of labor it is, 80 it is
labor, either mental or physical. The
boy who will take buck saw and earn
something with it rather than be idle is
entitled to the respect of all good peo-
pie and may expect some day to fill
higher places of trust and honor. 1t is
a worse disgrace to be idle than it ia to
be a bOotblsck."
The report of the state librarian, w
K. Henry, which will soon be given to
the public, will describe somewhat in
detail the travelling library system as
it has been put into operation in this
state. There are now 60 miscellaneous
ana ~ special study libraries in circu-
lation, and there is q demand for more
libraries in localities which have not
yet been thus favored. The libraries
which are already in circulation have
gone chiefly into the country districts
and small villages, as was intended
when the law providing for them was
passed. The total number OF books In
the Libraries is 1854. The librarian is
gratified at the success of this work in
Indiana and will ask that the next leg
islature make larger appropriation
for it. The management of the travel
ing libraries is in the Lands of a com.
mission consisting of J. Z. Dunn, of
Indianapolis; Elizabeth G. Earl, of Con-
nersville, and Joseph K. Worries, of Bed
ford.
