LIBRARY NEEDS Y.
OLD MAGAZINES

The librarians at the public Ii
brary are making a call TO the pub
lie to donate to the brary as many
as possible of the best magazines of
past date.
The magazine reference room is one
Of the most important to n library
and the girls are making a great
effort to complete the shelves. The
library is on an exchange list and
the magazines not wanted are traded
to other libraries for the missing mum
Ibers in filling a series. The librar-
ians, however, must first have the
extra copies to exchange or they can
not procure 1c desired numbers.
a trade OF over 100 magazines was
recently made permitting the girls to
procure the missing number OF Har-
per's magazines. The the library
arc now bound all the Harper's mag
azines beginning in the early sixties.
Such books are among the most valu-
able assets of the reference depart
ment and II sufficient magazines can
be secured the other periodicals can
be filled out this way
Those who have old magazines or
in fact any magazines to give to this
cause can telephone the Librarians as
they will send for them.

morning. who would rather serve a
term in the workhouse than part with
his hard earned money. The ordi.
nary prisoner is usually OF the oppo-
site state of mind. He generally
makes an earnest effort to raise his

yesterday to visit friends and Incl
dentally became intoxicated and
landed in the city prison. When ar.
raigned this mornlng, he pleaded
