House Cleaning Time.

This sudden plunge into Summertime has
aroused the housewife into quick action for
house cleaning. A hundred aud one things
press her for immediate attention. If any
papering is contemplated now Is the
convenient time to do it. while the rooms
are in disorder anyhow. Don't buy ex-
pensive paper; it doesn't pay. You tire OF
it too quickly and you hate to tear it off be-
cause you have paid so much for it. Come
and see our pretty papers at six. seven and
eight cents. Ifyou don't like them don'i
buy them. =. n. BEARD.

TRAVELLING LIBRARIES

There is q movement on foot in
So. Dakota, which, if successful,
will be most beneficial to the peo-
pie of the rural communities and
of the small towns. This is the ag-
itation in favor ofthe formation of
a State Library Commission, whose
chief function will be to organize
and direct u system of ''trayeling
libraries, the latter term referring
to a collection of books loaned to a
community for general reading
and to be exchanged for new col
lect'ons at stated periods. The
library is established and main
tanned by state appropriation.
More than twenty-five states of
the Union have authorized these
travelling 1ibraf5es by law, includ-
ing North Dakota, Montana,
Colorado, Nebraska, Minnesota
and Wisconsin. In these states
tilc llpfaIy COMMISSION is proving
to be practical and valuable in
stitution. In some instances, per
haps, it is just small beginning.
but leading to greater things.
With a need so urgent, how can
South Dakota afford to neglect the
excellent example of her sister
states in providing the means to
meet that need.
The plan for commission was
outlined and a bill providing for
its establishment drafted, at the
recent meeting of educators and
librarians, at Mitchell. 1t is hoped
that the bill will receive the favor
able consideration of the coming
legislature.

on Tuesday and Wed. for their re-
spective homes, with their parents,
