Another new feature in the catalogue is the
number of books for the of foreigners who can
not read and ignorant of the facts of United
States history and government. In order to have
these books reach the men for whom they were pur-
chased is necessary to have the cooperation of the
teachers in the night school. Every teacher should
take pains to provide each foreigner in his class
with library card and should fill it out for the man.
Application to the Deputy and explanation for the
of this will smooth the way to getting the Ii
brary cards for this purpose. The following are
some of the books especially written for the class of
men mentioned and provided in the prison library:

To Mr.. j. B.. for his splendid poetry printed in
recent issues of The MIRROR, thanks and congratula
tons. We have had many ''prison poets" who
were such by courtesy only, including myself; Mr.
B. is such by virtue of the splendid briance of fan
and intense sincerity of execution which his vers
es display Uncouth in language at times, imper-
feet in technique, he yet captivaes by that subtle
essence of poesy which differentiates true poetic
feeling from the tickling emptiness of us mere vers
fers. Poetry such Mr. J. B. has been publishing
in THE MIRROR deserves a wider field of apprecia-
ton.

ton for married men, mean?''

at this institution last Monday. The inmates were
privileged to congregate in the cell blocks in the
forenoon, following which they were treated to a
splendid entertainment of songs and comedy sketches

periods in Boston and Chicago The Company of
twenty-five players and six-piece orchestra was
secured by the Management through the courtesy of
Manager H. G. Robertson of the Saltwater Audito-

The Management in behalf of the inmates take
opportune pleasure in most heartily thanking the
entertainers for their refined and up minute
sketches and songs. The hearty applause which
followed each number on the program is also assur-
that the inmates heartily enjoyed the occasion

COLD FEET CAUSE TROUBLE

Cold feet are generally sign of

face that comes from dilatation of the
capillaries of the skin and looks like
a fine red network, especially about a
dubious nose.

First Australian Sheep.

Australian wool, on which has been
built up much Of that British colony'S
prosperity, started more than one hun
dred years ago. 1t originated with
certain Captain Macarthur, a sol.
der in the British army. Settling in
New South Wales, soon after Cover.
nor Phillip arrived there, he saw the
possibilities for growing fine wool, and
by the luckiest accident was able in
1896 to import five merino ewes and
three rams. They were of a flock
presented by the king Of Spain to the
Dutch at the cape, and came from the
famous Escurial flock. These, judici-
ously added to by Macarthur, were
the beginning Of the vast Australian
sheep industry of today. The first
shipment Of Australian wool was PAS
pounds in 1907; now the shipments
run into hundreds of millions of
pounds.-Indianapolis News.
