arises. in sad iteration, the cry. for
leaders real leaders, God-seeing lead
ers.
God give us men! A time like this
demands
Strong minds. great hearts, true faith
and ready hands;
Men whom the lust of office does not
Men whom the spoils of office cannot
buy;
Men who possess opinions and will,
Men who have honor-men who VIII
not lie;
Men who can stand before dema-
gogue
And damn his treacherous batteries
without winking!
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live

Everyday Religion
A strange notion prevails, more
widely than we think, that religion
is wholly mystical and mysterious
and other-worldly. A glance back
ward over this years lessons reveals
HOW pIdClltdl anu SlOot w -
of it's teachings are. For Gods Will Is
to be done first on earth. The sphere
for the expression of religion is none
other than the very place where we
now are.
Running over the list of lessons we
find such practical teachings as the
problem of temperance and civic serv-
ice, as represented by Daniel in Baby
lon; of the royal results of the up
bringing of a child, as shown in the
case of Hannah and Samuel, and Je-
hosheba and Joash; of the possibili-
ties of high service through faithful
Witness bearing in a lowly place, as in
the healing of Naaman the leper
through the testimony of a Hebrew
slave girl; of property rights, as in the
case of Ahab and Naboth's vineyard;
of the current question of feminism as
represented, on both sides. by De-
borah, Ruth, Jezebel, Athaliah, and
the Queen of Sheba; of the case of the
spoiled rich young man typified by
Absalom; of Gods care of those whose
provisions have run low, as instanced
by Elijah. The value of these ancient
providences lies chiefly in their appli-
cation to the analogous conditions of
our own time.
OF old, as now, the history we have
studied shows God as patient and long
suffering with His people. The lesson
of the lessons Is in the Golden Text:
jehovah 10 merciful and gracious,
slow TO anger, and abundant in loving
kindness"

HE RELATION OF THE LIBRARY
 TO THE COMMUNITY.


 But apart from it's relation to the school and the home, the library has yet another and most important function, and that is to the con- munity as a whole, which embraces both school and home, and, in ad- dition, the large floating population which is here today, and replaced by others tomorrow. This element must be consideed, and it is here that an attractive. up-to-date Ii brary may do some of it's best work The warm, sunny room already pro vided in this town, the comfortabl. easy chairs, the home atmosphere for those who have no home so graciously furnished by the untir- ing efforts of the Civic club, the large supply of current literature made easy of access-all this off sets in large measure existing evil without, and contributes with tel ing effect to the betterment of the town.
 People like 10 go whele they may be comfortable, and where they will be entertained, and it is much easier to bridge the gap between newspapers and magazines and more permanent kinds of reading, than that which lies between news papers and no reading at all Once the habit of frequenting the library is formed, good proportion of such visitors become habitual read CTS. and of an ever better class of reading.
 Furthermore, the better the town library, the more ambitious people become to increase their own store of books, realizing with Ruskin that If a book is worth reading, it is worth buying" for mo book is worth anything which is not worth much: nor is it serviceable until it has been read and re-read and loved and marked, so that you can refer

THE RELATION OF THE LIBRARY
 TO THE HOME,

Just as the public library should aid in the work of the school so should it supplement the home read ing of the entire family. Especially is this true in the case of technical books and works of reference i'm portant for the time being, but too short lived and too expensive for the average family to possess. Such brary for the common use of all and should embrace not only up-to- date encyclopedias and general ref erence books, but the latest and best authorities in all special line. of industry carried on in the com munity. including domestic science and the interests of the home, as well as whatever contributes to the best solution of civic problems.
 What ;he school is to the child, the library should be to the home which includes the child, the youth. and the adult, supplying to all, not only the incentive to self-improva- ment, but the material out of which self improvement may be wrought.
 l have been told that study clubs will not thrive in Fairbanks, yet there are here as intelligent and progressive and capable men and women as can be found in any part If the United States; and those as interested not only in great questions of the day which concern us all in directly, but in the improvement Of conditions in this Tanana Valley which is our first and most vita, concern.
 If study clubs have gained nc permanent foothold in Fairbanks hitherto, is it not largely because the library has lacked material which could direct their work and supply what was needed to carry il on? Given such material, and it is increasing all the time both in quality and quantity, and show how it should be used, and this town will net lag behind any other in profit inp thereby
The Alaska citizen., 1915-10-18
THE RELATION OFTHE LIBRARY
 TO THE SCHOOL.

Since the library is. or should be, in close touch with the whole community. let us see just what it's relation should be to the school. Nowadays, every school, even in the most remote hamlets, is more or less equipped with necessary texts called for by the course of study but more than this is desirable From the time the child is able to read, or even to understand and appreciate what is read to him, the value and importance of a wide range of good reading should b. impressed upon his mind. And in supplying such reading the public library must work hand in hand with the school and the home. When this is done, three times as much material will be available, to sag nothing of the improved quality.
 Literary taste, quick apprecia- tion of what is really good in books, is not instinctive with any of us. It must be developed and the earl- CT this process is tegun the better and more lasting the results. The child who forms his ideas of art from the colored supplements of the Sunday papers cannot appreciate the great masters; and it is equal ly difficult to concentrate on profit able reading the mind that has dissipated it's energies on trash
 School work, like any other form of activity. becomes attractive in proportion as it is understood and it's relation to the pupils special interest is realized The boy who likes machinery will spend every spare moment in tinkering with any put together, and will read with avidity Whatever gives him further information in his favorite line The same is true, only in a different degree, of studies which the pupil now dislikes. They are hard to learn because not comprehended But let the difficulties be explained, and light let into the dark places by reading that is properly chosen, and his interest quickens as his troubles disappear.
 But not only should the library supplement and explain school texts; it, as well as the school and the home, should show the child how to use books. It is not enough to place volume in his hands and tell him it contains what he is looking for The use of the book index be taught to consult cross refer ences and kindred topics If he is reading about engines, he needs to turn also to such headings as steam, gasoline, electricity, water power. machinery, iron and steel, inventions. and perhaps dozen other subjects depending upon the kind and extent of the information he seeks A child does not know how to use dictionary until he is taught, much less a fuller work of reference, and giving such assistance when re- quired, is as much the duty of the librarian, or the teacher, or the par ent, as is the supplying of the nee essary books.
 In the care of children, too, the public library should have a dis
