LIBRARIANS COLUMN
Edited by Geo. H. Taylor,
City Ii brarian.

------------
Last week the Rocky Ford public
library entered upon the second year Of
its existence. The chief interest that
marked the event was the putting in Of
l0z new volumes and the addition by
gift of 20 volumes. which are also prae-
tieally new.
The additions Of the year have neces-
sta ted the adding Of another shelf stack.
which goes into position this week. and
the rearranging Of the books SO as to
bring the class groups into proper reIa-
ton. making them more readily findable
by readers. If a little more thought and
attention is paid to the matter Of replace
ing books all the readers will stand a
better chance Of getting the book they
are looking for. While the system of
free access to the shelves is something
every reader appreciates. by contrast
with the old system of having to Judge
the attractiveness Of book by glance
at the title in cold type in oatalog. the
appr eciation should be shown practically
by marking the place from which book
is TAXI en- and return it to the same loca-
ton if it not the book wanted. This en-
ables the next seeker for a particular
book TO find it without searching every
shelf. In the book room is an excellens
place for the application of the Golden
Rule. All the fiction has an alphabetical
and numerical order. according to author,
which can be understood with a very
little observation. The other groups
which are less consulted. follow a nu-
merical order. which is almost as easily
learned, and when understood is very
helpful in getting at the subject sought.
The librarian will be glad to point the
method to all who ask.
In addition to the new books an
nouneed last week the following are now
available on the shelves:
The Forge In the Forest: Roberts.

DR.. OsIer RapS Christian
Science.

DIR. Osler, one of the greatest ply
sicians Of the century has recently
stirred up the Christian Scientists by a
remarkable article published over his
signature, in which he says:
ITO deny the existence Of disease, to
deny the reality Of pain, to disregard all
physical measures Of relief. to sweep
away in a physical ecstacy the accum-
lated wisdom of centuries in q return to
Oriental mysticism-these, indeed, ex-
pressed revolt from the materialism
of the latter half Of the nineteenth
century at once weird, perhaps not un-
expected and to a student of human
nature just bit comic. One cannot but
smile to think that this has happened at
the very time when the Goddess OF
Reason was priding herself on the
brilliancy of the accomplishments OF
her devotees. II is. indeed. lesson in
humility and serves to remind US that
our deliciously credulous human nature
is still plastic and receptive"

NOW MOTION
PICTURES TALK
Edison lnvents a Machine Thai
Combines the kaleidoscope
And PhOnograph.

Thomas A. Edison gave TO an audi
ence of not more than dozen men last
week the first exhibition of his talking
pictures, the product Of the new Edison
kinetophone. which combines in one ma
chine the wizardry Of the photograph
with that Of the kaleidoscope. The brief
glimpse offered in the laboratory in
West Orange was enough to show that
Mr.. Edison has achieved what he and a
host of other inventors have been striv-
ing for The perfect experimentation Of
sound and action for the moving picture
screen.
Into the scene thrown upon the screen
last week man walked, and as his lips
moved the sound Of his voice issued from
the concealed monograph, effecting an
illusion that was perfect. This was all
that Mr.. Edison would show, but he has
more in preparation, and his plans for
the future of his kaleidoscope are bound
less.
"We'll be ready for the moving pic
ture shows in a couple of months" he
said. "but am not satisfied with that,
l want to give grand opera, ! want to
have people in far stranded towns able
to hear and see John Drew. And" he
added in a burst Of confidence. II want
to have Teddy addressing meeting"
But these things are not yet. A year
or more Mr.. Edison allows for their
achievement. Already he has an ambi-
tious drama reproduced on long film,
but there are flaws in one or two places,
and he is unwilling to show the play.
The kinetophone as it now stands is the
product of two years labor. which Mr..
Edison has shared with his assistant,
Mr.. Hyams.
