"The ideal commission. Miss Clara
Baldwin, secretary of the Minnesota
commission, tells us, should be a

Of helpfulness and understanding
which results in a mutual feeling of
perfect confidence.
"The work Of the commission
would have an important bearing on
the problem of administration, of fl
ances and the budget, apportion-
ment, etc. The commission collects
reports and statistics which furnish
valuable information on all these
subjects for comparison with other

Travelling Libraries Provided.
MANY a fine librarian has no
business methods. The commission
has blanks to simplify the keeping
of records and to encourage the bet

The help that the commission gives
in providing club and travelling IL
braries In states where there are no
country libraries is inestimable. Wis
consin has a system of packet libra

state can obtain a single volume.
They also have a reference librarian
for club work.
There is often a little lack of
sympathy between the librarian and

Encampment of Soldiers in
Indiana Cities Raises a
Question That Is of Vital
Interest to Saloons.
TINES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

INDIANAPOLIS. IND. Aus. 16.-L.
Ert Slack. United States district attor-
new. has asked the Department of JUS
tice. at Washington. for a definition Of
whether the camps in which the Vari-
Gus national guard companies Of Indi-
ana are now encamped come under the
heading of military camps. If they do
saloons are prohibited within a half
mile of any such camp That's the
point Slack wishes settled.
some time ago the War Department
announced that it would strictly en-
force the provisions of the law which
prohibit saloons or other evil resorts
within five miles of any military camp
except where the camp is located adj
Joining a city or town. In that case
no saloon would be allowed within half
A mile of the camp boundaries.
When the Indiana national guard was
called into Federal service few days
ago. most OF the companies went IN
camp on the fair grounds of their home
counties or at other convenient camping
nlaces. The point has now been raised
in several places in Indiana that the law
and the ruling of the War Department
cover these camps. and that saloons or
other resorts within half mile OF
these camps are Illegal.
The War Department sent word TO
Terre Haute that unless the local au-
thorfties cleaned up the place and elm
mated bawdy houses and saloons with
in half mile of the camp in which the
Terre Haute company Of the national
guard was located the War Department
would do the cleaning itself. The re-
suit is that the neighborhood has been
cleaned to a finish.
Some other cities now say that If this
rule applies to Terre Haute it applies
also TO tho other cities in which national
guard companies are in camp.
some of the Indianapolis companies
have their headquarters at the state
fair ground, but there are no saloons
within a half mile of that place. But
others have headquarters in an audi
forum on Virginia avenue and there
are score of saloon inside the half mile
radius. Slack wants to know what to
do about them. The answer he receives
will be of interest to numerous other
cities in the state

For the danger from spies and traitors
is ever present.
The need of armed military forces
in case OF fire. food. cyclone or tor
nado. strikes and riots is apparent to
everyone. and especially during a time
when the public mind IS OF necessity
unsettled because OF outside influences
The further fact that disciplined
troops will tend to inspire patriotism
in all the people. but more especially
in the younger generation. is regarded
by the government as highly import
ant. A proper respect for law ard or
der is essential to the greatest possible
individual efficiency in the prosecution
OF the war.
Such are the reasons for Federal
legislation providing for local defense
companies. the formation Of which is
recommended by the Indiana State
Council OF Defense to every county
