PUBLIC LIBRARY
Is Being " ell PaIronized and Number
of Books AUGMENTED

The Free Public Library and Reading
Rooms for Garrett county, located in
Oakland, are now beng pretty well
patronized. Many of the current maya
zines are found on the reading room
tables. and in addition, the editors of
our county papers have consented to
place copy of their respective papers
on the tables, gratis, each week.
10 the public school teachers will sar-
that the books of the teachers library.
formerly kept in the SchoolBoa-d office.
have been placed on the library shelves,
as we'll as other rererece books for
teachers. Those books are ALWAYS at
your disposal.
L wish to also remind the general pub
lie that books will be added from time
to time. These books will be donations
for the present. as many people have
promised to bring in books which have
been read by members of the family.
l might say to those who contemplate
bringing in books that those suitable
for boys are always in demand.
In closing will say that, as in every
project of this nature, money is needed
for the purpose of meeting requirements
which can only be met with cash. Of
course. we must have money with which
to buy books as time demands, but aside
from that we need money with which to
pay for room rent and also to pay the
librarian for her service. So do not
wait to be asked for cash donation but
come forward of your own volition and
contribute your mite. Any amount will
be acceptable, if it is only five cents,
but give what you can.
The librarian will always be glad to
receive your donation and give you due
credit Tor same.

 would a conclude that the section was drawn with reference to particular individual Under its terms it would be apparent that not many would be qualified for it. In fact, there is only enc man living eligible that vacancy. He it turns out is Judge Carson of MT Hays state Virginia. Now will suppose that Judge Carson once ap- pointed, should die resign Under the bill there is not in all the wide world a who could succeed him.
 Mr. Hay not only created an office for his friend but he created it to fit the measure of his friends record Efforts have been made in the past with less fit men for office but this is the one case the office made fit the q nicety and to fit no other man. The military establishment may suffer through the activities of Mir Hay but his friends certainly being taken very handsomely If Mir Hay had been as loyal to his government he has been to Judge Carson this section would never have been incorporated in the bill
