BOOKS FOR SCHOOLS
Make SPECIAL LIST FOR
RURAL DISTRICTS
IS MATTER OF IMPORTANCE
Minnesota In Front Rank as Re-
CARDS School Libraries-Neces-
sity for Special Care of
Rural Districts.

State Superintendent Olson is soon to
issue a special list Of books suitable for
rural school libraries, which will I'M
doubtedly be of great benefit to the
rural districts of the state. AS a matter
of fact, no state in the Union has made
better progress than Minnesota in the
matter of school libraries The state IS
very liberal to districts desiring 20 pur-
chase books. Any district that buys
books for it's library secures aid from
the state to the amount of half the or
der. No district can receive state aid I'M
less 1t has a library. These two pro-
visions have resulted in good school libra
rieS in thousands of districts in Mime
sofa. There is, however, one difficulty
to be met. The approved list of books
published by the state library commits
sion contains some 5000 titles. Often
times the rural library is not selected
by person familiar with books, and Sc
lecting from such a large list, many of
the books selected are not especially
suited for school, libraries 1t is easily
seen that in a district where there has
never been a library, it is necessary to
exercise care and judgment in the Sc
lection of a library in order that it may
be of real benefit to the district. In or
der to make the matter of selection
easier, the department will probably is
sue d supplementary isl TO contain SOJlc
SEQ titles. especially adapted to the rural
school library. The value and influence
of the rural school library is not con-
fined to the school alone. 1t reaches to
the homes in the district, especially if
the teacher is enthusiastic and takes an
interest in the matter
Assistant Superintendent c.. G. Schulz
said: 1.-The school libraries in country
districts are among the most important
adjuncts of the rural educational sys-
tenn, and deserve the earnest considera-
ton of the department. If the books
selected are not suitable the purposes
of the library are frustrated. The main
thing is to get books in the library that
the pupils will take naturally to and
read, and from the reading get an inter-
est in books that will develop their de-
sire for reading and their taste for good
literature, If the teacher is efficient and
interested the library will Become real
benefit to the entire community. 1t is
especially necessary, therefore, that the
library be selected with discretion and
only such books go into it as will be
read with interest and profit

He WAS DISCOURTEOUS
so SAY EAST sIDERs CONCERNING
INSPECTOR WAIT.

Owing to the number of special meet
ings held recently by the East Side Bust
ness Mems association, for the purpose of
taking prompt action upon urgent bust
ness, the regular monty session of last
evening was very poorly attended, there
being only six members present. For
that reason the proceedings were of an
Informal character, and no question in
volving decisive action was taken up.
s. A. Farnsworth presided, and at his
request a verbal report was made by DR..
r. o. Earl, as chairman of the special
committee which presented to the board
of education the protest of the First ward
citizens against the erection of an eight
room addition to the Grant school, and
their request that new building be
erected on the corner of Walsh avenue
and jerks street instead. The doctor
said that Inspector Wait had treated the
members of the committee in a manner
not at all courteous, and had spoken
discourteously of the 1888 citizens who had
signed the petitions presented by the
committee. The board, as a body he
said, had declined to take action upon
the question at that time, for the reason
that the meeting was special one, called
Tor specific purpose, and only certain
business could be transacted. The exec
utive board of the assertion was re-
quested to wait upon the board of educa-
ton at its next. regular meeting, and re-
new the requests Of the First ward citi-
ZenS -,
committee of four was appointed to
wait upon theaboard of public works to
request that the proposed plan to nacad-
amize Arcade street be deferred for the
present, and a steel arch bridge across
the Omaha tracks on that street be built
instead, to replace the present wooden
structure, which is in very bad condi-
ton 1H

CANNOT FIND WORKMEN
EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES UNABLE
TO SUPPLY THE DEMAND.

According to the managers of the en-
ployment bureaus, it is impossible to sup
ply the demand for men at the present
time Hundreds of men are wanted i'm
med1ately for railroad work and in the
lumber and mining camps of the North
west, but it is very difficult to find men
for the jobs. Wages of $3.50 and So a day
seem to be no magnet for the laborers
just now. All employment agencies are
behind on their orders, and are going
forth into the highways to persuade men
to go to work: This is very unusual
condition of affairs, and can only be ac-
counted fer on the theory that wages
have been so good the past summer that
the men feel that they can afford slight
vacation, and are in no hurry to start in
on their winter work. 1t is said that
nearly 1000 men are needed at once in
Montana for railroad extension work.

ALONG RIVER FRONT
PARK BOARD TO WORK FOR IDEAL
BOULEvARR AND DRIVE
" WAY
MAKES CONTINUOUS CHAIN
Scheme Is tOsHaxe a Chain OF Drive
ways FROM Shadow Falls
Osthes Indian
gfM0unds.

If present plans are realized during
the coming year, ST. Paul will have TAX
en- the initial stop in the acquisition of
what was once &C cherished hope-the
Mississippi river boulevard and drive
way. AT the nexblmeeting of the board
of park commissioners resolution will
be passed favoring the plan and de
handing of the engineering department
plans Of the boulevard now in its pos
session.
The proposed boulevard, which orig
inally contemplated the acquisition of a
strip of land 200 feet wide, extending
from the Fort Smelling bridge TO the
county line, was one OF the early acts of
the first board of park commissioners.
The ground was surveyed, and. the major
portion, including what is now known
as Shadow Falls park. acquired. but the
contemplated terminals were never pur-
chased The scheme found much favor.
but obstacles in the shape of little money
and promised protests deferred the
board
The scheme now is to face the bluff,
from Shadow Falls park, or rather the
end of Summit avenue, to a point near
the Omaha shops, with boulevard and
driveway, and then, if deemed feasible,
have it diverge so as to strike park
way connecting with one of the other
parks, preferably Indian mounds. Fort
Smelling lis really favored as. the eastern
terminal, but the sentiment seems to be
toward pushing the project to completion.
The original scheme contemplated a
bluff driveway connecting the two cities
and extending eastward as far. as the
city limits, but time has improved much
of the ground wanted, and its acquisi-
ton, as far as this side of the river is
concerned, is now almost impossible.
From the Omaha bridge down, railroad
tracks and substantial buildings have
given the project asquietus.
The proposed driveway and boulevard
received considerable discussion at the
meeting of the board last evening, and it
was decided If not to do any
thing this year, at least to take the steps
necessary to assure it's ultimate realiza-
ton.
