EDUCATION FOR
OLD AND YOUNG
Everybody Desiring to Keep Up with
Worlds Progress Should
Read.

There are but few people who real
ize the amount of knowledge one gains
by reading the news of the day, not
necessarily for the purpose of gaining
education, but with a desire to keep up
with current events.
In April, 1912. the greatest steamship
ever built struck an iceberg some four
land and sank a few hours after the
collision. The newspapers were filled
with detailed accounts of the great
disaster, with also minute descriptions of
the great ocean liner. People read all
ity, and after the excitement abated
they found they had absorbed a
great amount of educational informa-
ton. They had learned of the relative
sizes of steamships and the rules gov
erning their course and speed; they be-
came familiar with many of the details
of construction: they learned of icebergs
and ocean currents; in fact much of the
information thus gained would not have
been learned by study and was simply
absorbed by causal reading.
At the present time everybody is in
terested in the great Panama Canal A
book has been published on the SUBJ
ject called Panama and the Canal in
Picture and Prose"
The Herald is now offering this beauti-
ful volume on the popular plan explain
ed in the Panama certificate printed
daily in these columns. Clip the certif-
cate today and learn how you may get
this useful book.

A very pretty wedding was solemnized
yesterday afternoon when Miss Elsie
Chesley Blackstone. daughter of Mrs
Katherine Blackstone, and Mr.. Herbert
Lawrence Thompson. Of Daytonia, Fla.
were married at st. Margaret's Episcopal
Church, Rev. Herbert Scott Smith offi-
c!ating, in the presence of the immediate
relatives and a few intimate friends of
the bride and bridegroom.
The bride. who had no attendants. was
given away by her brother, DR.. Chew
Blackstone. She wore gown or brown
cnInon with toucnes or pink and trimmed
with rose point lace. Her brown beaver
hat was trimmed with shaded pink and
brown feathers. She wore a corsage
bouquet of sweet peas and lilies of the
valley.
After the church ceremony the bridal
party and guests were entertained at a
dinner at the Powhatan Hotel The bride
and bridegroom left later on their we'd
ding trip, the former wearing a gown
of dark mahogany colored broadcloth
with dark furs and a chic hat.

SALARIES AT LIBRARY
CALLED "STARVATION''
Radical Readjustment of Appropria-
lions for Public Institution Urged
by Board in Annual Report.

That the employees of the Public
Library are paid starvation wages" and
that the institution never has been placed
on basis of adequate maintenance are
two criticisms made by the board OF the
Public Library in its annual report sub
mitted To the Commissioners yesterday.
A RADICAL readjustment Of library appro-
priations is urged.
Points made in the report are that the
increased appropriations allowed each
year by Congress are not commensurate
with the increased work of the library,
and that employees cannot be kept on ac-
count of the small salaries. According to
the report. charwomen are paid $50 a
year.. many regular assistants between
$3.50 and $40 year. and the librarian
$500 a year. These salaries are all said
to be below those paid in other cities.
Moreover, the report states, the en-
ployes are not only underpaid. but over
worked. 1t is stated that the library has
grown in the last nine years from g. 473
to 156,26S volumes. The number of vol
umes circulated yearly has increased
from 27S,l7S to 6Ss.27S. The percentage of
fiction circulated has been reduced from
81 to IS.
The attention of the Commissioners is
called to the growth of the library's use
fulness and the possibilities for increasing
its service by the provision Of sufficient
funds by Congress.
The report concludes with statements of
the work done by the library m bringing
good books into the hands of children
through the schools. also of the work ac-
complished by organizations making the
library their study headquarters.

Last, but not least, of the gifts pour
