MEANING OF THE PUBLIC


Cities and towns are now for the
first time, and chiefly in this country,
erecting affairs to the gods of good
fellowship, joy and learning. These
affairs are our public libraries. We
had long ago our buildings of city and
state, our halls of legislation, our
courts of justice. But these all speak
more or less of wrongdoing, of JUS
tice and injustice, of repression.
Most Of these touch on partisanship
and bitterness of feeling. We have
had, since many centuries, in all our
cities, the many meeting places of
religious sects-our chapeIs, churches
and cathedrals. They stand for so
much that is good, but they have not
brought together the communities in
which they are placed. A church is
not always the centre of the best life
of all who live within the shadow of
its spire.
For several generations we have
been building temples to the gods of
ACoAlAAIlS anu SOOu ClLILCIlSHi p-ouL
schools, and they have come nearer to
bringing together for the highest pur-
pose the best impulses of all Of US
than have any other institutions. But
they are not yet, as some day they
will be, for both old and young. Then
they speak of discipline, of master
and pupil, instead only of pure and
simple fellowship in studies.
And so we are for the first time in
all history, building, in our public IL
braries, temples of happiness and wis
dom common to US all, says J. c..
Dana.
No other institution which society
has brought forth is so wide in its
scope; so universal in its appeal; so
near to every one of US; so inviting to
both young and old; so fit to teach,
without arrogance, the ignorant, and
without faltering, the wisesC.
The public library is to be the cen
tire of all the activities that make for
social efficiency. It is to do more to
bind into one civic whole and to de-
velop the feeling that you are citizens
of no mean city than any other insti-
tuition you have yet established or
than we can as yet conceive.

WORK.

Let me but do my work from day to
day
In field or forest, at the desk or
loom,
In roaring market place or tranquil
room;
Let me but find it in my heart to say,
When vagrant wishes beckon> me
astray,
''This is my work; my blessing, not
my doom;
Of all who live, am the one by
whom
This work can best be done in the
right way"
Then shall 1 see it not too great, nor
small
To suit my spirit and to prove MY
powers;
Then shall I cheerful greet the
laboring hours,
And cheerful turn, when the long
shadows fall
At eventide, to play and love and
rest,
Because I know for me my work is
best.

ATLANTA NEEDS SOUTHERN sUFFRAGIsTs.

the future active policy Of the Nation
al Association, the result of which
debate will determine our position re-
gerding the Federal Amendment.
Surely to the southern suffragists no
discussion could be more vital nor one
in which they are more deeply con-
cerned! We all need education and
enlightenment in connection with this
phase of our work and this debate has
been planned to meet that need.
And too, the Executive Councils
decision as to which state of a given
group has the best chance for a state
referendum, is of great Importance
of those of US in the south. Have
we any southern State ready to begin
preparations for a campaign? If 80,
which?
We need the support and advice of
the strongest delegations we can mus
ter, and it should be matter of pride,
as it is of the gravest concern, that
the south be represented by her ablest
women.
The time is short, the weather hot,
there are many obstacles, but let me
again ask that you use every means
at your command to see tht our par
tieular part of the country shoulders
its esponsibility in helping to decide
the big questions which will come up
at the September convention.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by Pensacola Suffragists from
Mrs. Pattie Ruffner Jacobs who has
many friends in Pensacola, when she
spoke on suffrage at the San Carlos
Hotel, under the auspices of the PEN
sacola Equal Suffrage League:
No doubt you have received letters
from Mrs. Gait and Mrs. Roessing
relative to the National Convention
to be held in Atlantic City, Septem-
Der 9th to 10th, and have realized
from them that our movement has
reached a crisis.
l am writing you now, not in any
official capacity, but as a southern
suffragist, to emphasize the import
ance and value o. this Convention
especially to our work in the southern
field, and to urge that you viii
send all of the thoughtful, earnest
workers obtainable.
This may present some difficulties
in view of the fact that many are
away on their vacations, but perhaps
such may be induced by little more
effort and some letter-writing, to in
clude Atlantic City for week, before
returning south, particularly if you
impress upon them the point, that
matters of the most vital Importance
to our cause in this part of the coun-
try are to be discussed.

cludes a three-cornered debate as tc

her head, according to fans in charac-
ter reading by hats, is prone to self
indulgence. Then there is the secret

her eyebrows.

arranging her hat and primping her
hair may have a fitful mind.

MIDSUMMER NIGHTS DREAM
AT MONTEAGLE.

Miss Edith Cooney, who is stu
dent at Fairmount College, Mont
eagle, Tenn, sends the following in
tefsstIng des, option of college activ-
tiles, and the program of a musicale
to be given al the college:
First, go Peter Ounce" says
Bottom, say What the play treat on;
then the nam, $ of the actors; and so
grow to point"
So do we come at once to the point
with the announcement that mid
summer Nights Dream" will be pre-
sented during the last week of August
by the students of the Fairmount
School, Monteagle, Tenn, school
for girls, situated on the Cumberland
Plateau and open from April to De-
cember of each year.
The play will be given in a wood at
little over a stones throw from tie
building. Here all during the pleas
ant afternoons, steamer rugs are
spread aud the rehearsals proceed.
Thos who are not rehearsing, await
their cues on the tennis court or bask-
et-ball field, busy with outdoor
sports. When the cue comes, they
step across rustic stile and To-
they are in "The wood of Athens, a
league without the town" The cos
tunes are being made at the school.
These differ slightly from the cos
tunes usual at such performances,
the idea being to catch the spirit of
the play in them and combine it with
the freshness and charm oft deep
woodland setting.
The Paramount School, with its
summer term, is unusually well adapt
ed for such play and for the needs
of southern girls, keeping them, as
it does, in the bracing mountain an
during the period of greatest heat in
the south, and giving them vacations
during the winter months, which are
so delightful in the southern states
There are Representatives from al
parts of the south at the school this
summer. Every girl is taking part
in the performance, thus making the
play the work of the entire student
body.
