1t was for him to be trying SO hard to

and worthless Vagabond there would

take the back track home and aban-
don the life of a tramp. This plan

'A-No. /" managed to make his ex-

that he has written on hobo life, for
he Is an author as well as the worlds
greatest tramp. In these books he
paints the dark side of tramp life, so
that any boy, restless of home life
and inclined to take up the career of
a hobo, will get a good idea of its
miserable, disgusting features.
After paying his own modest ex-
penses, "A-No. 1" devotes all the
money he makes to sending runaway
| boys to their homes.
This noted tramp is well known to
! railroad men all over the country. In
| fact, he carries letters given him by

man life and property by informing

on the trucks, of broken car wheels or
other disarrangements, and thus
averted serious wrecks. He has been
in five railroad wrecks, but fortunate

In addition he has autograph in

Presidents Taft and Roosevelt, Admi-

has also an autograph letter from
Jack London, the author, telling of
their companionship on the road to-

Cotton Market

NEW YORK. April 3.-The cotton
market made new high ground for
the movement today. first prices be-
ing to 10 points higher on an active
demand from leading trade interests
for near months. Realizing supplied
a good deal of cotton around the
opening figures. Prices worked off
only or 3 points during the early
trading, however. Business was very
active at the start, and there seemed
fresh buying through wire and COM

OUR FREE LIBRARY
NUCH|N NEEDOF
new BOOKS
Particular Fund Fails To Meet
Demands Upon It
COMMITTEES SUGGESTION.
That Each Patron Contribute to the
Fund the Price Of at Least
One Volume

The managers OF the Y. NJ A. will
make their full annual report in re-
gard to our Free Library within a
few weeks, the year ending March
10. But at this time it seems adyis-
able to make a statement to the gen.
eral public and to the patrons of the
Library.
We very much need new books.
But we have not the money to buy
them. Bill for about $575 have
been paid out of our book fund since
Mach 1913, but $4OO of that repre-
sents the account of the previous
year for books and periodicals. SO
that we have spent only SITS this
year. That represents by purchase
not more than one hundred books ad-
ded in the last ten months.
Now the book committee and the
entire board of managers and the IL
brarian as well have felt the embar-
assment from the calls for new
books which we could not meet. 1t
would not be wise to go into debt
foc new books. Our years budget
has been carefully considered, and
we believe our present policy viii
bring us out even.
Meantime the Library was new
SO popular as now, with more be-
rowers and greater circulation.
would seem as II we could extend
patronage indefinitely with ample
equipment. This is what grieves us.
that we are unable to meet with the
income which we have the needs OF
our patrons.
But the people are showing a very
considerate spirit. And from . num-
Der of sources has come a suggest
ton which we wish to put forth now,
It is this-that all friends and pat
rons of the library be invited to|
make money gift to the book fund.
Almost every one could give some
thing. Many might give the price Of
one book. Some could do muchl
more, and we believe, realizing the|
situation, would very gladly help in|
a generous fashion.
Therefore the beard of managers
authorizes our librarian, Miss JOSE
phine Keller, to receive at the Lib
rary contributions and subscriptions
for new books. Record will he kept
and credit viii be given. and the|
money will be spent for the booss|
as rapidly rs its accumulation would
warrant an order.
Miss Keller has made note of the|
books desired by int ,ested persons
and so far as possible, consistu
with the ideals OF the Library in
spect TO the character OF the bod
these purchases will be made frs
We confidently expect to this
tation a free and hearty respc
from the people who use and app
ate our Public Library and desire
enlargement and greater usefulns

of Managers OF Free Library.
