LGoodwiu's Weekly

A Great many kinds of men are
 born into this world. Some are born in happy homes their coming
 ia welcomed. They always make good men.
The oasis., 1912-02-10

Some are born hypocrites. That happens when one or both parents have been playing part all their lives and have never been what they seemed to be.
 Some are born rOgues and dis semblers. They are people whose births were accidents.
 Some are born natural sneaks and liars. They cannot help it, either the father or mother, or both of them, all through life posed as something while all time knowning it is lie.
 Some men are porn natural scrubs. These generally take after their parents. Some are born with a hate for all the world, and a desire to get ever for some unex- plained wrong. They are but the product of prenatal hates, their coming was unwelcome; their hands have been against the world from the beginning
 Some are born high and true be- cause they were prayed for, and the prayer was that they might be high and true and noble from be- fore the germs of their lives had any life.
 Some are born in rebellion against God and the world and their thoughts from the first have been dark thoughts. They came by them naturally. Their mothers before they were born knew tha their fathers were not fit to bt fathers. God pity them!
 Some are born to be self forget ful and patient under worry, anC their whole lives are lives of self abnegation. These are the child ren of mothers who repressed thei' lives, without bitterness, for wha they held to be duty.
 There is nothing that a persor should be careful about as to hoy he is to be born,

making a mistake ia its failure to in
| ciude more books of fiction in it's pur-
| ehases. The error lies IN the lack of
| judgment In estimating the needs and
demands of the reading public of this
community.
If 1t were selecting books for a COL
lege library it would probably be justa-.
fed in its selection of so many books
of reference, philosophical works, books
| on sociology and other special sub
jects
The Hammond library is probably a
we'll balanced library viewed from the
standpoint OF the student, but the fact
should be remembered that the reading
public of Hammond is not composed OF
students and the library should not
be built for students alone
Fiction Sought Most
"A visit to the Hammond public IL
brary and a study of the demands of
its patrons. as is shown by the books
that are sought and read, demonstrates
conclusively that more books or ffc.
tion are borrowed than Of any other
class and that this demand is not ade-
quate'v met by the supply. The books
on philosophy and tbs fine arts repose
undisturbed on their shelves ana the
books of fiction are worn threadbare by
constant use
1T is out OF the question to force the
reading public of a cosmopolitan COM
nrunity like Hammond to read erudite
works subjects of only occasional
interest when II -as only the capacity
for the lighter weeks of Action.
Five per cent of the population of
Hammond would find the Hammond
public library a well selected aggre-
cation of books. The other IS Der
cent would fa1t to have their demands
met by the books listed in the cata-
logue
The first object of a public library
is to create the reading habit among
the people of the city. If this leads
to the formation of habits of study

ment in almost any line of research
that might be taken up.
Real Students Few.
But few readers actually become
students. and 1t is better to have a
patron Of the library continue his pat
ronage of the fiction department for
what educational value II is to him
than it is to have him cease TO remain
patron.
The benefit the Hammond public IL
brary will be to the community depends
upon the number of patrons that the
institution has. 1T is better to have L.
600 people get some benefit from the |
library than 1t is TO have a few people

HAMMOND PEOPLE WANT
MORE FICTION IN LIBRARY

There has been complaint among the
patrons of the Hammond public library
because OF the dearth of fiction on its
shelves. The books of fiction are worn
threadbare and are continually being
borrowed while there are whole shelves
of other books that are seldom touched.
The criticism that is made of the IL
brary board is that 1t aspires to build
up fine reference library, such as
would be provided for western college
town or an eastern city, and that the
board ignores the real demands of its
patrons in this manufacturing COM
munity.
The board is criticised for taking the
attitude that 1T knows better than the
people themselves what they want. and
steadfastly refuses to install. in the IL
brary any of the new books of fiction
unleBs they are by authors of recog-
nized ability. 1t takes the attitude that
a book must be proven to have some
permanency in the realm of Action be-
fore 1t will be given a place in the Ii
brary
Books Are Censored.
The board, according to a member
also establishes the strict censor
ship over the books OF fiction that are
put into the library. 1t will have none
of the Robert Chambers recent trashy
fiction and books of the character OF
Henry c. Rowlands pilot Fish
But even admitting that a censorship
OF the books in the public library is
necessary. those who want more fiction
say that there is still large field to
select from and that the board could
suck 70 the legitimate lines of fiction
ana still go long way before it would
exhaust the supply
The board is charged with not adapt
Ing the library to the needs Of its
patrons They point out that this is
not community of bulge brovs,. but
OF busy working people. Everybody
works In Hammond and the library
shouid be adapted to the needs of the
vaat majority OF reading public of the
community. j
The same criticism is made of the
public library that is made of the aver |
Age preacher who talks over the heads

lege course when the facts are that
only 10 per cent of the students ever
get through high school and less
than 5 per cent go to college.
This is all being changed by the

is intended to fit the student for his

board regulated the purchase of books

Howat Is Interviewed.
DIR. W. F. Howat, one time mem
pers OF the library board. was asked
to make an explanation of the fact
that the fiction in the public library
does not meet the demands of the com
munity and said. The tendency in all
OF the public libraries of the state is
to eliminate fiction or reduce the num-
Der of such books toya minimum
Il will venture TO say that Hammond
has more fiction in its library than
any other library in the state. with
the exception of those in Fort Wayne
and Indianapolis
The board Us opposed to buying light
trashy stuff In fiction and aims to
equip the library with only the best
books OF current fiction. 1t win be
noticed that our books of Juvenile 1c
ton are numerous and we are meet
ing the school chiidren's demand for
fiction.
App opriatfon lis Small.
Continuing the member said The
board has only a small allowance to

penses of the up-keep OF the library
are paid AID sum is set aside to COW
er the depreciation in the value of the
books, there is only a small sum left
for the purchase Of new books. lii the
case of fiction the depreciation amounts

lowing lines:

HAVE YOU SUSPECTED YOUR KIDNEYSp

There are two ways 10 ten whether you
have weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That is why physicians make such q
careful examination when you apply for
insurance, and If there is any sign Of kid
ney trouble you are likely rejected.
Kidney disease is SO dangerous that II
is bad mistake 10 overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
anhes, or a fretful, nervous, tired condition
makes you suspect some kidney trouble
take the troubtc TO watch the kidney secre-
tions. Look for any of the following
signs:
More or less than three and one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too pale q color.
PASSAGES too frequent. profuse. or much
reduced, or scald!ns and painful.
Sandy, Gritty or cloudy settings.
Fat or oily-lookins layer which aathers

or q jelly-like thieLening.
Staining Of the linen or bad odors
Temporary changes may occur for time

bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has

Bedford, Ind.-That Hiram Hill, a
fourteen-year-old boy. deserves a
Carnegie medal, is the opinion Of his
friends and relatives.
He had gone to the home Of his
grandfather to spend the night. and
about eight o'clock the family was
aroused by strange sounds in the
chicken yard. Hiram rushed out, saw
an animal after the chickens. caught
it by the tail and beat It to death with
a club.
Then things began to happen. His
aunt. who was with him. ran for dear
life. The boy, who bravely stood his
ground. was almost strangled to death
by the odor at the end of the contest.
The animal was a skunk.
