city library, and the vacant hours of
hundreds would be spent there.
There are countless reasons why we
should have city library. The uses
and results of such an institution arc
so beneficial that there is but one side
TO the case. The time has come when
the Virginia State Library ought to be
allowed to restrict itself to the pur-
chase of nothing but books for refer
ence and research.
With budget of two and half
million dollars, we can AFFORD city
library. There is no need of marble
lions at the entrance or fancy frescoes.
If the people will but ask for n CITY
library, 1t will be given them. City
Council will not refuse it. We ought
10 have had city library ten years
ago. and we can have it now If those
who want it will demand it.

NO GOLD rEnru IN rnoNr.

Visible gold teeth must go Such is
the decree laid down by DR.. Burton
Lee Thorpe of St Louis, at the con-
vention of the National Dental Asso-
citation in Cleveland. In speech he
srilled dentists who permit patients
to commit the esthetic misdemeanor of
wearing gold teeth in front. where u
mere parting of the lips makes daz-
cling smile even more dazzling by a
display OF precious metal. DR. Thorpe
said:
This association has had a marked
influence on the ethics and esthetics
OF our calling, so that to-day 1t is only
the dental hobo who places gold
crowns on the anterior teeth to please
an uncultured patient"
DR.. Thorpe agreed that the esthctic
misdemeanor of wearing n gold tooth
is second only to the esthetic crime
Of studding n gold tooth with dia-
monds. He suggested a campaign Of
public education to stop such offenses
against good taste as are expressed
IN front teeth OF gold. This will
probably be accomplished through a
dental press bureau.

AUTOMOBILE FIRE App,n.rrs

Early next year New York City will
have one hundred and fifty pieces OF
automobile IRE apparatus. This seems
TO indicate the retirement of the horse
from the fire departments of large
cities That this VIII take place is
certain. though it may be matter of
eight or ten years. II is sure that a
fire department can move more quickly
and with better calculation in auto
mobile apparatus than with the very
best trained horses.
One of the chief arguments for au-
tomobiles is that ladders and water
towers can be lengthen when nro-
PEELED by motor force because corners
can be turned moro sharply. In other
ways which arc obvious. the automo.
bile is more efficient than the horse
for fire purposes.

TO stick in his mouth and suck away
on while making parade. But the
old man knows how to make money
enough to pay your bills and keep the
Wolr away from the door. When the
ola man was your age he didn't smoke
pipe or wear rainbow necktie
every evening. He was very busy
working hard on Il small salary and
denying himself a lot of pleasure in
order to set a start. You will find out
after all that the things the old man
don't know don't cut much ice, while
the things he does know will make a
volume that it will take you many
years to learn. When you have learned
as much as the old man has forgotten,
perhaps you will be able to hold down
job that commands a salary of seven
or eight dollars a week"
"The old man" Is not half the fool
some may think him. He has been
over good part of the rosd. and ne
isn't the blockhead that he may seem

ECCLESIASTICAL LATIN.

1t Is reported by the London Globe
mat for some time the Pope and the
Vatican authorities have been occu-
pied with the consideration OF the
pronunciation of Latin in the churches
IN the churches of France and in some
OF England Deus qui feclt coelun ct
terrain is heard. while the Italians
say "Deous coui fetchit tcheolum."
while in Germany 1t is "Fetsit tseol,.,n.,
II follows that Roman Catholics VIII IN
absent from home find these divergen-
oies in pronunciation hard to follow
ana SO 1T is said that the Vatican Is
OF opinion that there should be uni
FORM pronunciation. II there is any
result from these deliberations, 4, is
hkely that the Italian form will be
ADOPTED. as 1t more nearly approaches
me ancient Roman than any other.
