cratic caucus, but was entirely out OF

of the state when We consider such a
resolution, or, for that matter, any
resolution that undertake" to tell the
national administration how II shall

MAY PAY INSTALLATION COST
Controllers Ruling Relating to Tel

According. to the controller of the
Treasury. the government may not
spend SIS to erect, at its own expense,
an indefinite number of telegraph poles
which. on erection. would not remain
federal property. but would become
property Of the Chesapeake and Poto-
mac Company. The poles are intended
to provide the bureau Of lighthouse of
the Commerce Department with bet
ter telephone facilities to the Piney
Point light station, on the Potomac
river. St. Marys county. Md. But 1t Is
proposed for the government to agree
to pay the same amount. SIS. for in
stallation of telephone service.
On reference from the Secretary of
Commerce, the controller of the Treas
ury, w. w. Warwick. finds no authority
in law to permit the government to pay
a pro rata expense Of erecting poles to
istine exchanges But. II the exigency of
the service justices It. Controller War
wick fnds no legal objection to pay an
installation cost. even II in excess Of
the proposed SIS expenditure.

Expenditures Compared.

DIR. Bowerman's report contains a
brary expenditures and service Of
thirty-one American cities. which
shows that the local institutions ex-
penditures Of s.5 cents per volume CTR
culated are nearly Q cents per volume
under the average, and that Washing
tons per capita Of library circulation
of 2.23 volumes is below the average
of 2.5s, and is exceeded by twenty-one
other cities. The report proceeds:
The rapid increase in circulation
through the utilization of deposits in
the public school buildings is raising
Washington. However. when compari-
sons are made with a per capita of
as in Cleveland. 80 in Cincinnati, 4
in Minneapolis. 3.69 in Seattle, 4.64 in
Portland and 4 in Louisville. all of
which cities have systems of branch
Libraries, it is evident that the local
library cannot adequately cope with
larger funds with which to extend its
work
1t is believed" concludes DR.. Bower
man. that this report will show that
whenever Congress has made even a very
small increase in library appropria-
lions there has followed a much greater
proportionate increase in work accom-
plished and a steadily improving quail
ity of work. This record proves con-
constituency needs and will use very
much larger library resources, and that
if Congress would only make appro-
priations larger and more adequate to
the local need II could count on their
full utilization in the public interest"

Use of Outside Agencies.

Outside of the circulation of books
through the school class rooms. the
library ut!lizes three principal classes
of outside agencies for book dis.ribu-
ton. as follows Social settlements,
school stations and stations conducted
In Offices. These agencies circulated
last year almost $4,000 volumeA OF
this number $4,000 volumes were dis
tributed to readers without cost to the
library except for the books and for
transportation. Here is big public
service rendered without cost to the
public. The library ought to have
funds from which II could pay for
this good and valuable service. instead
of longer accepting the gratuitous
service or money from organizations to
pay for 1t.
THE new Park View school building
has been planned to afford suitable
quarters for neighborhood library
for the populous suburb OF Petworth,
but the Public Library has no funds
for the employment OF a librarian to
conduct q. library there. 1t is also
understood that all new suburbsn

tain quarters designed for Hhraries
1t is along the Line Of the best mod
ern thought and practice to plan
school buildings as social centers and
to include public library facilities as
an important feature of such centers.
With the enactment of the new law
opening the schools as social and civic
centers. library resources will natural
school buildings so utilized. The Ii
brary is willing and anxious to under
take that work. but is not justified in
further extension In this direction ex-
cept on a basis Of maintenance at pub
lie expense. The Public Library is
not charity and ought not to accept
charity.
The most interesting new extension
venture of the year is the work done
at the geolegieal survey. Most of the
members of the survey star live too
far from the central building Of the
Public Library easily to use Its re-
sources. By making a deposit Of Public
Library books in the survey library. by
time and by filing individual orders by
frequent deliveries. public library re-
sources have been brought to the mem
bers OF the survey stan and their fam
lilies. DR.. George Otis Smith. director
of the geological survey. points out in
letter expressing his satisfaction at
the results secured by the venture that
with the completion of the new In
terror Department building there will
be more need than ever for thus ex-
tending the resources of the Public
Library to the members of the survey.
THE success of this experiment points
to the desira bility of establishing SINH
lar public library deposits in all the
government offices able and willing to
give them space and conduct them. Such
further extension. however. awaits an in
crease of funds for books and service

Snapped in New York.


 New York, Oct. 16.-Miss Lucille Covington, who is suing Dr. John Wesley Hill, noted preacher and president of the Peace Forum, for $10O,OO0 for breach of promise to marry, says that Dr. Hill wept as he told her of losing his wife and having three children which he wished Miss Covington to care for.
 Miss Covington, who is darkhaired, plump and attractive, says that she will introduce letters from Dr. Hill as evidence in the case.
 As result of his. pleading, Miss Covington says, she agreed to marry the noted divine, but that she was disillusioned shortly afterwards, when she discovered that had already mar ried second wife, after his first wife had died.
 "He confessed that he was mar ried.' she says. "but told me his wife was an invalid and might die at any time"

 Game Was One.Sided.
 The game was one-sided, and was never in doubt after tho first few min utes Of play Pine Bluff won the kickoff The visitors fumbled the ball on their second down. Trulock hucked the line for a few yards gain, and Bays shot through for a run and touchdown, one and quarter min utes after the contest began. rhere- after, it was a succession of runs, mass plays, trick plays, smashes, tackles, and forward passes that was almost bewildering and which kept the scorekeepers busy.
 Fine Bluff tried aimost everything there is in the football code book. and "got by" Little Rock. although oatwoighins the locals by big mar
 gin, appeared unable to get we'll started on anything The lighter, fleetcr-iooted home boys literally ran rings around" tho visitors, and the first half closed with the tally A to , for Pine Bluff.
 The Second Half.
 The second half was a repetition of the first, only worse. The home team, time after time, marched. lian, or walked to the visitors goal line. It was tho most utter reut in which any high school team ever figured. The local team ran up a total of 5S points in the last half Coach Bar sett kept running in substitutes so rapidly that the score keeper could not keep account of them. During tho last period. all the second string men were rlaying, and they made three touchdown. From the start ot tho game to tne last whistle, the Fine Bluff team played it's limit and when the coach sent in substitutes, thcy always gave the best they had. The game was a walk-over, and does not indicate the strength of the lCea squad The weather was too hot for heavy team and perhaps this accounts for the lack of pep on the part of the college team. Nearly every man on the home team made a touchdown or more, and as far as stars were concerned, Captain Bays deserved credit. On offensive and de- fensive. he was always on hand with his pleasant smile. Moss and Trulock were exceptionally good on advanc- ing the ball. On wide sweeping end runs. behind perfect interference, they never failed to gain. The pretty passing of Nivcn and the receiving by Mccain. Cross and Quinn were features. Collins, Harper and big Me lntyre were tower of strength in the line. and Cross. Mccain and Quinn on defense were bright features of the game. Every man deserves credit for the splendid playing.
 Coach Dixon Of the college team brought fourteen men and used every one of them durin@ the game.
