Que t0d0S lean.

Un pArrafo sobre todos resalta
en- Ia cr6nica del querido maestro
Don Manuel Fernandez Juncos, en-
la edicci6n del domingo de nuestro
colega el eHeraldo Espaffol.
Ell parrafo, en- que SO iadica la
conveniencia de dotar a los infelices
lezarinos de una modesto Biblioteca
a fin de que, con los libros, puedan
olvidar sus sufrinieutos y hacer
menos dolorosa su soledad en- la ve'
Gina isla de Cabra q donde por dis
posici6n de la Junta de Sanidad ha n
sido condenados en- bien de la salud
p1blica, todos los que padecen esta
cruel enfermedad.
Lo que Sc pide es muy poca CO.
sa en- favor de aquellos desgracia-
dos. Un libro! iquien no tisne un
libro para los, ,lazatiaos?
Nosotros no solamente acoie-
mos con cari1o Ia idea del bondado'
80 iniciador y aportaremos a ella
nue. stro m 1esto contirgente, sino
que procuraremos recOger cuantos
podamos entire nuestros amigos.
Los que deseen' ayudar q la
buena obra pueden mandar los to-
mos esta redacci6n.
Cualquier libro, no conteniendo
lectura perniciosa, es bueno.
Los lazarinos piden lectura, no
quieren ]ujo. Un libro modesto, po.
bre, se1a por ellos agradecido como
una obra lujosa'
A los generosos sentimientos de
nuestros bondadosos lectores recu'
rrimos en- favor de los pobres laza
rinos.
