PUBLIC SCHOOL LIBRARIES

1t is remarkable that so little
attention is paid to the oppor-
tunity given the people through
the country to secure pubic
libraries.
Each school district may Sc
cure a donation of twenty
dollars to aid in purchasing
books for school library simply
by raising $40. itself.
The State fund donates $40.
The county fund $40. The
District, by private subscription
$40 $1,000, altogether, enough
to make beginning, and form
a nucle us around which can be
gathered a valuable collection
of books.
Surely our people do not
understand the proposition, for
SO far as we can learn there IS
not a single district in the
county which has secured the
library, or are making any
serious efforts in that direction.
Histories, Cyclopedias and the
most valuable contributions OF
the " orld researches are brought
within the reach of every boy
and girl in the land.
Gen. Carr promptly contri-
buted $40. to each Dis
trict in his county and secured
a library foftach one.
There are not enough Cars
to 60 around and if there were
people who sit down and wait |
tor others to do what they ought |
to do themselves will never get |
much good out of it.
There are some people too
lazy to think and act for them
selves and it seems to us that
if the people Of the different
school districts do not, or can
not, or will not think and act
for themselves in this matter
there is little good in them.
A very small contribution
from each one. able to give,
would mark the beginning of
movement which has as much
promise of good in it, as any
one thing which could be in
