from his perch, his form standing out
in sharp outline against the back

On the northeast and west sides the

Above each of these windows are

carved in the stone fall gracefully on

The address of the afternoon was
given by Mr. Anthony G. DAILY, presi-
dent of the board of trustees of the
Marshalltown public library. whose
subject was Founders Day He
spoke i'm high appreciation OF the work
of the women's clubs here. TO whose
efforts the existence of our library is
so largely due, and said that it WAS
eminently proper and right to COM
memorate Il date set aside as pubic
library founders day. The speaker
said that we owe ii to ourselves TO
possess the ability to get real enjoy
ment and lasting benefit from books,
and that we should, while in the vigor
of life, force upon ourselves, If nee
essary, the duty to read. that when we
are pushed back to companionshlp
with ourselves, we may find solace IN
reading He said that comradeship
with books always faithful and UNI
changing, was infinitely superior to
comradeship with people. Also that a
lover of good books will become good
citizen. The modern novel he scored
severely. saying that the dime novel
and deadly cigaret are no more inJur-
ious to boys than many of the novels
in circulation today are to adults.
Shall it be said of us he asked,
chat we are powerless to turn our
backs on the novel? Then indeed are
we as securely chained as the heather

Sothern might be termed a protege
of the F'rohmans. He was given his
first real opportunity by Daniel Froh-
man, a brother OF Charles F'rohman,
his present manager. 1t was Daniel
F'rohman who made him star. and
smoothed all the rough places in the

Richard Mansfield addressed the

Fable by Sehumann. The paper en-
titled "Some Public Libraries written
and to have been given by Mrs. Grace X.
Haviland, was read instead by MISS
Vera Sieg, Mrs. Haviland being unable
to be present. The paper was full OF
interest and most entertaining. In II,
the writer told of her visits to val
liable collections of books in the Old
world, and details of the various rare
collections which are so noted, were
given. 1t was stated that While the
foreign libraries have excelled in build
ings and books, our country excels IN
library administration. Instances OF
humorous incidents which relieve the
serious work of librarian, were also
cleyerly related.

In Case Postoffice is Opened Thursday,

Description Of the Interior and Elk
terior-The Postotfice Force.

The new federal building, which has
1ust been completed, will soon become
the home Of the local postoffice force.
The last work on the building was
completed this week, and in case the
furniture. which has been delayed, ar
rives in time, the building will be
thrown open for the inspection of the
public Thursday, February %. In case
this is done the postoftice force will
be in possession the day following.
A part of the furniture has arrived,
but some of the cases and racks are
still to come. In case they do not get
here in time the postoffice force will
not take possession until some later
day.
The building is still to be accepted
by the government, but this is largely
formal affair, and probably will not
be the means of longer delay.
The new federal building cost, in
GLIDING the building site, $4,000, about
$4,000 of which was paid for the
ground. In style, both interior and
exterior, it is what is known among
architects as modern renaissance, OF
monumental design, which is the style
the government has adopted in recent
years for all Of its smaller buildings.
The government architects, in plan
ming it, took from the old standard
styles of accepted architecture, the
best features and modernized them and

ticable. Its exterior lines are grace
full. well proportional and of solid ap-
pearance. Its interior is light, con-
veniently arranged, and planned for
practical utility. The lobby, that part
Of the building for the public's use, is
handsome.
Description OF Exterior.
The building faces the north. The
ground dimensions are 5OxS0 feet. and
in height it furnishes a full story and
an attic for the interior. While the
north elevation is the true front of
the building, steps lead to doors OPEN
ing into the west end from Center
street. The entire building is of fire
proof construction, being of steel, stone.
terra Gotta, brick and cement. Wood
is used only for castings, trimmings
and some of the floors.
The surface stone is buff Bedford
limestone. What would be otherwise
q severe exterior plainness is broken
by groups of half-round pillars which
support the entablature on the north
side, while on the east, south and west
the columns are square. A balustrade
of stone surmounts the cornice. Form
ing part of it over the north entrance
is set the government emblem, the

B. f. spooner conceived the idea OF
starring his daughters in popular
priced repertoire.

W
Marshalltown friends of Tim" Muir
ply will be pleased to learn that the
versatile comedian scored genuine
triumph in the portrayal of his first
love, Maverick Brander, in "a Texas
Steer" at the Grand, Chicago last
week. Mr.. Murphy has played "a
Texas Steer" more times than any
other one man, and when it was an
nounced that he was to return to his
former success after SO wide depar-
ture in a more artistic line of comedy,
for so many years, the surprise of his
friends was marked. Judging from the
manner in which "a Texas Steer" was
received general revival of the old
Hoyt PLAYS would not be surprising.

The battle between the two theat-
rical trusts" one headed by Klaw &

latter last week, when it was announc-
ed that Julia Marlowe and b. HI.
Sothern would open under the Shu-
berts next season instead of Charles
friedman, who is a member of the
syndicate. The Billboard, in speaking
of the change editorially, says: "The
surprise of last week was the an
nouncement that f. n. Sothern and
Julia Marlowe would sever their con-
nection with Mr.. Charles Frohman at

agement of Sam. S. and Lee Shubert.
The contract under which these stars
are appearing under the direction of
Charles Frohman has still a year to

that it has been abrogated would in
dictate that Mr. Frohman is quite as
willing to part company with the stars
as they are with him. Under the agree

HENRY FoRNEVs DEATH.
End Of Busy Life of One of Marshall

eer citizensi of Marshalltown, and a
man, who in the earlier days, was
closely identified with the business in
terests Of the town. Mr.. Forney's
death was not unexpected. as it was
feared from the beginning that the at
tack of pneumonia, which he suffered
only few days ago, would prove fat
al at his extreme age. The end came
with the father surrounded by all Of his
children with the exception Of Lee
