Using the Books.
Christian Science Monitor.

From the Christian Science Monitor.
The regulation, recently put in force
at the Chicago public library. permit
ting patrons to draw out five books at
one time, is in line with a similar
policy which has been followed for q
longer period by the public libraries in
New York and Brooklyn, and notably
by that in Newark, n. J.. which allows
a patron to take away as many books
as he can carry. This increased liberal
ity is indicative of the growing con-
vfction that IL 10 the business of 4
public library to get its books used. II
only some plan could be worked out
that would make IL possible for the big
libraries to follow the example of
many small ones by inviting the COM
munity to come in and browse among
open shelves, instead of trying to
choose what is wanted with the help
Of a card catalogue. then. beyond ques-
tion. the books in tho city libraries
would be used to an extent never yet

What Is a Days March
From Outing.

! rom OutluB.
The Army Drill Book tells that
trained and hardened infantry can
cover from twenty to twenty-five miles
q day when in small bodies. AS the
size Of the command Increases the dis
tance covered becomes less, as the
rate is Lowered and time is needed to
get all the units into and out of camp.
With a regiment or less of average
troops-regulars-ma over aver
age roads. the rate should be from two
and three-quarters to three miles an
hour. Larger bodies will travel from
two to two and a half miles an hour,
while a division cannot be expected to
accomplish more than twelve and a
half miles a day.
OF course all these figures will vary
with different conditions of roads and
weather. Unframed troops could not
approach them until hardened. Though
they might do better for a day or two,
they could not keep up the steady
pace of the seasoned regulars for a
long distance. Marching with full
equipment Is hard physical work. and,
like every other form of labor. requires
proper period of training. The
seasoned force will keep up a steady
pace, with ten-minute halts every
hour, a flfteen-minute stop being made
at the end Of the first half or three
quarters Of an hour. Green troops are
apt to straggle badly.

Summering on the Mexican Border.

From Ieslie's.
of US would not choose the south for
a summer vacation. But these are un-
usual days and demand unusual things
of most of US. Perhaps II your hus-
band. brother or father were soldier
on the border you might want to Join
him, regardless of summers warmth.
The movement Of the troops to the
border has taken away many young
men who each year have added
greatly to "the gayety of the nations"
at our summer colonies. The near rel
atives of hundreds Of these guardsmen
parents, wives and fiancees - are
planning to join them. for at least a
part of the summer. in the south.
which therefore promises to become
for the season quite a rendezvous OF
fashion.
Most northerners have a preconceived
idea that the south has an intolerable
climate during the warm months. In
many places near the Mexican line the
mean temperature for July Is only two or
three degrees higher than in northern
cities that lure visitors by the thousands.
The mercury mounts higher at some Of
our eastern summer resorts than it does
in the south at corresponding times and
humidity-which the border land lacks.
except near the gulf. The nights are
cool and comfortable in the south and in
vite refreshing sleep. Seldom. even after
q torrid day, is a blanket unwelcome at
night, especially along the gulf.
All along the coast of Texas from
Houston and Galveston west and south
to the Mexican border one finds numer-
Gus pleasure resorts. La Porte, Calves
ton, Seabrook. Palacios. Port Lavaca,
Rockport and Corpus Christi are all seats
Of summer colonies Of goodly proportions.
where the usual attractions Of watering
places draw as well as they do along the

Development Of German Fleet.

TO that movement. more than to any
other fostered by the present kaiser, is
due the rapid development Of the Ger
man fleet. which looked forward not
alone to der tag but also to further
usefulness in defending the empires
commercial outposts in the land of the
future as almost every German writer
has styled South America; and it is sig
nifcant that Prof. Won Schulze-Gas-
vernitz. writing in Die Nation as long
ago as March. 1898. said:
he more Germany Is condemned to
an attitude of passive. resistance to-
ward the United States, the more en-
phatically must she defend her inter-
ests in Central and South America,
where she today occupies an authorita-
tive position. Now, in matters Of equity
and respect for the law the Romantic
peoples in America cannot be Judged
according to European standards; and
In certain circumstances Germany will
be constrained all the more to employ
coercive measures in proportion as the
amount of German capital invested Gin
state loans. railways, plantations) in
those parts increases. For this pur-
pose we need q neet capable not only
OF coping with the miserable forces of
South American states. but powerful
enough. II the need should arise, to
cause Americans to think twice before
making any attempt to apply the Mon
roe doctrine in South America The de-
Tense of South America is vital in
ssrsst for Germany"

Land Holdings 1854 Square Miles.


1.-THE land to which the Germans have
taken title in South Brazil now gives
them an area of holdings ot11.5 .534 square
miles. an extent equal that Of Alsace-
Lorraine and Saxony together. The aim
Of the Metropolitan and Hanseatic Coloni-
cation Companies at home has been to
reflect the current Of German emigration
from the United States to Brazil, and to
have the Brazilian colonists retain their
plan is attested by Konigsburg, who in his
work on Rio Grande do Sui says: These
colonies have built a state within a state
or German customs very 1ittF has been
lost, also the German dialect, with its
native idiom, is handed down from gem
Grafton to generation. Portuguese is lit
tie spoken, and even then the Germans
teachers Of the colonies are subsidized
German pastors.
Through their possession Of land, the
Germans in Brazil control one-half Of
the worlds supply of coffee, and the
Germanization of the people Is further
carried out through the compulsion laid
upon the army Of employees and servants
to learn the German language rather than
to oblige the alien to gain the native
tongue. The ideals and ties Of the inn
migrant. says Frederick William VILE in
the Eclectic Magazine, are essentially and
ineradicably German 1t is Vile also
who declares that the Germanization of
Brazil is no twentieth century project.
1t has been in progress for more than
prosecuted only during the past decade
writing In 1900. coincident with the rise
Of tho rampant expansion movement
known as pan-Germanism.'

method Is practically that used by them

distinguishes their industry from our
