Editor Her0iQ:-I heartily endurs
your plan for furnishishing Libraries q
the public schools, and will take grea
pleasure in selecting suitable book, 70
the schools winning the prizes You
Otier seems TO me very liberal one
and trustit may be the means O
giving to our children a large numbe
Of readable books.
OF all our needs / consider this ou
greatest. a library i'm each sch00lrO0m
would awaken the minds of the chill
dreu, make them better students, Civ,
| them an added interest i'm the school
make them more regular in attendance
and open 10 them a world OF good
things Of which very few Of them gel
even a glimpse. And the parent.
would also derive great pleasure from
these books when they were taken
home by the children.
Very truly yours,
j. ID. EGGLEsTON, JR.
