MARION HARLAND'S HELPING HAND.

The woman who writes this letter lives in a small town and see no reason why her suggestion should not be put into effect. In many small towns there are book and magazine clubs Sew eral persons subscribe to different maga- zines and these are passed from one to the other of the club until all of the pe- riodeals have gone the rounds. The same plan is followed with books. Why do not you who live in small towns see If something of this kind is not feasible7 When magazines are offered to you by some of those who have plenty to spare join together and pay for the transporta- ton of the books and circulate them be- tween yourselves. giving the magazines later to those who cannot afford to pay nnd yet long for reading matter. The one thing that is needed is an enthusias- tic. practical person to go ahead and get the scheme started. After it is under way there is a possibility of securing one of the travelling libraries which have don- so much for small towns with ne libraries Of their own. If any one wishes to com municate with Mrs T. on this matter l will gladly give her address or supply any information In my power to help along the project
