partments.

A city plan exhibition now occupies
several large rooms in the Free Public
Library building Of Newark, N. ]. The
rooms were made ready, the articles
classified and hung and about 200 la
bells printe on hand press by assist
ants In the library. This exhibition
contains no pictures or drawings Of
civic centers, plazas. parks, water
fronts or other beauty spots for New
ark or any other city. The city plan
commission, which supplied most of
the material, confined itself to the
study Of such homely facts as may
help them to reach wise answers to
the question, "How shall we make
Newark a more efficient city?''
Several departments of the city gov
ernment at the library's suggestion
have contributed to the exhibit and
sent material to. illustrate their own
work and to show how closely their
several activities are allied to the plan
Of making a more efficient city.
If public library may extend its
activities beyond the field Of book pur.
chase, book storing and book distribu-
tion, then it becomes at once an instt-
tuition particularly well fitted to COOP
crate with any or all Of the depart
ments Of its city.
In the last ten years the modern
American free public library has prov
ed, not in one city only, but in a score,
and not in one town only. but in hun
dreds, a much more valuable institu.
tion than even those responsible for its
development anticipated. Time and

Remembering what the hotel clerk
had said about Mr.. Lincoln, the man
went to hear the lecture and thus de-

was a dingy,. drafty loft. There were
forty or fifty persons in the body of
the house scattered about and looking
exceedingly uncomfortable. At the end
Of the hall was a rickety deal table on

The first building he came across was

stopped and looked at It with interest
and curiosity depicted in every feature.
Just then the tanner happened to come
out through another door and. seeing

TWENTIETH REUNION OF
THE KINDELL FAMILY

The twentieth annual reunion of the Kin
dell family met in the Kerns Grove August
l3 and IA, in two days session. Wednes-
day morning was spent in friendly greet
tngs. At about noon the reunion was called
to partake of a splendid dinner, tables hav-
ing been previously arranged in the shade
of the trees. The President, B. L. Kindell,
then called the assembly together to listen
to very interesting and entertaining pro-
gram. The remainder of the day was spent
in social conversation, games and gem
eral good time until they again gathered
around the table for supper. The special
features of the evening entertainment were
vocal and Instrumental music, and at about
10 o'clock all very interestedly proceeded to
an open place in the grove and gathered
around q burning brush heap to roast
marsh mellows. They seemed to enjoy 1t
as much as young Indians roasting Vent-
son. They then departed for their various
places of abode for season of rest before
entering upon the pleasures of a new day,
Thursday morning q second program was
given. The good ladies of the homes again
having prepared dinner, Mrs, d. s. Monroe
took up the old Couch Schelln and sound
ed its call to dinner. The Kindell brothers
instantly recognized its old-time summons
and Immediately answered 1T with yell as
in former days when at home on the farm.
and their older sister blew the couch schell
to call them to dinner. The afternoon was
spent much as the previous day, In having
q good time.
A volunteer program of readings, solos
and quartets was much enjoyed. The re-
union song which was particularly com
posed for the Kindell reunion by Rev. w.
H. Kindell, was sung. They then scattered
for their many homes. All expressed them
selves az having greatly enjoyed the re-
union. There were seventy-eight relatives
and q few friends present.
