Greensboro, N. c., Dec. 4.-(SpeciaI)-
An attractive looking couple, giving
their names as Mr. ]. o. Goodman and
Miss Alpha Dowd, applied to Register
of Deeds Kirkman for marriage license
this morning. The Register Of Deeds
had been sued once for issuing license
to parties under age, and he is the most
particular man in all America now when
it comes to the marrying business. The
young lady in the case was exceedingly
fair and evidently of tender years. The
Register began a series of interrogations,
which resulted in a flat refusal to issue
any license. and the couple hurried to
catch the next train, declaring that
marry they would, somewhere, and that
before night. They stated without hesi-
tation, that they had runaway from Vir-
ginia on account of objections to their
marriage on all sides; refused to give
the place of residence, except that they
came from Virginia, and did not hesitate
to give the names mentioned above.

Library Work for Club Women.

To the Editor: 1t is eminently proper
that the women of the State should aiC
in the great educational campaign which
our Governor and his counselors have
inaugurated. Education means more tt
them than to others. To the woman who
is cut off from the social pleasures ant
privileges of the city, this is a vital, 6
living issues.
The education acquired in the schoo
room must with the majority of our peo-
pie, be meagre at best The course Of
study in our public schools will always
be rudimentary, but the chief object is
attained, if, in the few years OF school
life, love of reading good books has
been created in the hearts of the pupils
so that they will seize on every oppor-
tunity to read The library is an i'm
portant factor in the public school sys-
TEN. 1t is one of the great forces in
modern educational progress. The youth
finds iii good library a substitute fol-
university training. The student of ma
turer years supplements college course
by reading in the hours and minutes OF
leisure as an accompaniment to regular
business.
The Legislature of North Carolina has
provided partially for the establishment
of 5S2 small rural libraries. The number
actually placed so far, is 30S, making a
proportion of one library to fourteen
school districts. Fewer than fifteen pei
cent of our people live in touch with the
city Libraries, leaving a large majority
who have access to no books except
those found in meagre private collections
In many homes the book shelf is con-
spicuous for it's absence. An old spelling
book, a patent office report, perhaps a
Bible, and a last years almanac, and
the library is complete.
The club women of the State, at a re-
cent meeting in Winston Salem, recog-
nizing this need as their opportunity
adopted Library Extension as one de-
partment of work The aim of this de-
partment is to promote the establish
ment of libraries wherever the way may
be open; to enlarge those already in
existence; to fit out small cases of books
which may be sent 70 points where they
are needed to stimulate the interest in
libaries generally: to foster the love of
collecting and preserving books; and to
endeavor to infuse into the minds of the
people a proper conception of the bene-
fits to be derived from libraries.
1t should not be a difficult matter to
secure a travelling library. Many clubs
will send out memorial libraries which
