BOOKS FOR SOLDIERS.

An intensive book campaign is being
 conducted this week throughout the state, in facE all over the country, for the benefit of the libraries for the soldiers in camp and trench. The campaign opened March IS, and ! will conclude next Monday. As a result of the first campaign, several hundred thousand books were supplied, but those in charge of the work say that there should be two million more.
 The campaign is carried on by the
 Library War Service of the American librarian Association, and the public librarian in Little Rock is the state agent for Arkansas.
 Collections of books suitable for sol-
 ders' reading may be made anywhere, and when boxed and addressed to the commanding general of the camp to
 which they are to be sent, they will be
 carried by the railroads free of
 charge.
 Generous owners of private collec-
 tions of books are asked to take such
 of their volumes as they would like to give for the use of the soldiers and
 sailors to the public library, marked
 Library War Service" They will
 be taken care of by trained workers,
 and placed where they will do the most effective good. The standard books of poetry, es-
 says, drama, philosophy, biography
 and history are all useful. The pres
 ence of many men of foreign extrac-
 tion, not skilled in English, makes
 demand for boys books, books on the war also being in great demand.
 There is no danger of giving too
 many good books.

.PETR0GRAD |s
 ABOUT TO FALL Germans Are Nearing City and Popu- latiOn Awaits Their Coming Pas-
 sively, Says Dispatch.
Associated Press Dispatch.


 London, March 2O.-The fall of Pe- trograd is imminent, according to dispatches received in London, saying the Germans are nearing the city. The population is reported to be wait ing for the coming of the invaders passively. There is no indication that the Bolsheviki authorities will offer any resistance. The Bolsheviki gov- ernment departments were trans ferred to Moscow last week, which the Lenine government declared the capital of Russia. German possession of Petrograd will give the enemy control of the Gulf of Finland and all important ports along it's coast, ex- cept those in the hands of Finnish re- bels, who are being attacked by the German and Finnish government troops. The occupation of Petrograd will cut Moscow off from the Baltic sea, while the Germans already are virtually in control of the Black sea.

 Little Rock, March 2O-In an ad- dress to the farmerse of the state of Arkansas, Commissioner John H.. Page calls attention to the fact thxt A good deal of anxiety has been felt in this state and other Southern states in regard to the shortage Of farm labor occasioned by the extra ordinary demand for industrial labor and the selective draft"
 The question was taken up with Provost Marshal General Crowder in Washington, with other agricultural commissioners, and an order issued whereby "the local or county exemp- tion boards are authorized to pass all the order numbers of men actively. completely, and assiduously engaged Tn the planting or cultivation of a crop, but who are in class and with in the new quota, and to defer their call for the present."
 Under this ruling and order all farmers and farm laborers who are in Class 1 and within the new quota may apply to their county exemption boards and ask to have their numbers passed and their call deferred for the present in order that they may re- main on the farm and make a crop during the present year.
 Tt must be emphasized that the purpose of this ruling and order is to meet the exigencies of the nation in the production of food for our military and civil population and not for the convenience or benefit of any individ- ual, and those who are entitled to avail themselves of deferment must devote their whole time and energy to actual farm work, and not abuse their privileges"

thoroughly convinced or he would
not do so. Telling ones experience

act of kindness that should be appre.
