Town Libraries

An Effort is being made to increase
the Lumber of free public libraries in
Vermont, and il possible to get a Ii.
brary in every town in the state.
LamOille county still has four towns
without libraries; it should be race
between them to see which will lead
in the good work.
If town wishes to take advantage
of state aid, articles must be inserted
in the warning for March meeting to
see if the town will elect a Board OF
Library Trustees, and to see what
sum, if any, the town will appropri-
ate for the maintenance of Free
Public Library.
Ii the conditions are complied with,
then application may be made
through the Library Commission to
the state, which will furnish hun
dred dollars worth of new books for
a foundation. Reports of the Com
mission, which give more detailed in
formation, and application blanks
may be procured from the State Lii
brary Commission. Immediate action
is necessary to secure results this
year.

Views on Football.

President Eliot of Harvard attacks
football, and General Mills of West
Point defends the strenuous game.
Who is to decide when these eminent
educational doctors disagree
DR.. Eliot's objection to football,
however, is not urged against the
game itself but against what he re-
CARDS as the abuses connected with
it. Once separate these abuses from
the sport and quite likely the learned
President would with the general
public welcome the chance to see a
strenuous combat" that may becor-
rectly described as skiIlfull, vigorous
playing, uninterrupted by repulsive
incidents" He adds that the aver
age college player had much rather
play fair than foul"
Harvard's President Justly de-
nounces the grave evils in the sport.
He finds the sources of these to be,
first, in the immoderate desire to win,
which may, however, be said in re-
gard to any intercollegiate games.
Second, the frequent collision in
masses which make foul play invisi-
bic. Collision in masses is inevita-
BILE in football, but the foul play can
and should be abandoned. Third,
the profit of violating the rules,
which comes under the same head,
and fourth, the misleading assimi-
lation of the game to war as regards
its strategy and ethics" "A strenu-
Gus combat" under Dr. Eliot's
definition, with these features elimi-
mated, might still be maintained, and
it would appear, as a profitable form
of mani V sport between friends. "
General Mills, without comment
ing upon the features which have
called out DR.. Eliot's structures, ex-
cept " too entpartisanship," finds
that the competitive games of foot
ball and baseball are decidedly bene.
fetal in their effects not only upon
athletics but also upon scholarship.
The Investigations that have been
made at the Military Academy, he
says, have invariably shown that
participation in the sport has not
lowered the class standing of the
average cadet engaged therein.

A Disagreement.

The Senate has passed its new
State bill, but as it differs materially
from the House measure on that sub
ject, the conference may be unable to
reach an agreement at the present
session, now nearing its end, and
another year may pass without the
placing of any more stars on the flag.
There is no difference between the
two Houses as 10 Oklahoma. Both
favor the admission of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory as one State,
under the name of the former. The
disagreement concerns Arizona and
New Mexico. The House bill pro-
vides for the admission of the two as
one state, while the Senate proposes
to let New Mexico come in as aState
by itself, leaving Arizona still in the
territorial condition.
BY majority of one-fve Senators
being absent and unpaired-the Sen
ate voted to admit New Mexico sep
arately. By a majority of thirty
five the House voted for the union Of
New Mexico and Arizona as condi-
ton of admission. 1t looks as,
though the House would have its
way, provided the difference proves
not to be too great for satisfactory
adjustment.
