A BOOK DISPLAY
COLLECTION OF BOOKS In KEEL
LEY'S SHOW WINDOW FOR
A PURPOSE.

There is being arranged in the
north window of the Kelley grocery
a display that has back of it a very
unique idea. Esthetically considered
it may not have any particular merit,
but certainly it is interesting because
of the purpose behind it. This dis
play is made up of sample volumes
of reading matter taken from the
shelves of Madison merchants who
make it part of their business to car
ry a line of books on sale to the pub
lie, and the city librarian, Mrs. Bert
Reeve, has the project in charge to
see what can be done, publicly, TO
more deeply interest parents in a
wiser selection of good reading mat
ter for their children. Do parents
really know the character of the
reading their children indulge in?
The city of Madison maintains a
splendidly filled library for the use
of the public. Here is found a choice
selection of all grades of books, those
that the young delight in, and others
of poetical, scientific, historical, eth
ical and geographical nature, intend
ed for more mature and discriminat-
ing minds. The question now is,
How can the public, and especially
the younger people, be trained to
make the best use of the city's free
library, and how is it possible to
stimulate a greater interest in the
selection of authors and writer's
works intended for the use of chill
dren? To work out an answer to
these queries, Mrs. Reeve has collect
ed just those volumes that most APP
peal and are most adaptable to chill
dren of varying ages and tastes.
among the many interesting and use
full presents usually made to friends
are to be found books of all kinds.
In order to demonstrate the sort of
reading matter found in our library
and On the shelves of our merchants,
the display above mentioned has been
placed in a conspicuous place for the
purpose of interesting all passersby
in the value of good books, and to
serve as a guide to the kind of liter
ature that should be selected for gen.
eral reading and for Christmas gifts.
There is no doubt that this window
with it's suggestive posters will at
tract the eye of many a person who
has thought little about the real
value of good books as a factor in
mental and spiritual development
and life training.

what of a dazed condition, but able
to get around and talk some. We
called a doctor at 8 p. M, Tuesday
and he assured us that no serious
consequences need be apprehended.
But Mr.. McCallister's stupor became
heavier and heavier and at 6 p. m, l
took the matter up with his son.
The stupor continued to grow on him
and by IL p. m. last night we could
not rouse him at all. AT 1880 this
morning an ambulance took him to
the Sisters hospital, Los Angeles,
where the best medical skill and at
tention could be had.
"He never regained consciousness
and passed peacefully away at IL
noon today"

SWEEP TAYLOR JR.,
FOR PAT HARRISON

The Sentinel speaks with au-
thority when it states that Mr..
SWepson ]. Taylor, OF Jackson,
will vote for Pat Harrison for
United States Senator. Mr. Tay-
lor is the only son of Hon Swep
J. Taylor, former Mayor of
Jackson and long one of the zeal
Gus supporters of Senator Var
daman. This young man is a
gentleman of the highest class
He is intelligent and far-seeing.
He is unostentatious and an ex-
ceedingly obliging character.
Did he not believe it patri-
Otto duty, the Sentinel does not
believe he would have allowed
any public announcement Of his
position IN the Senatorial con.
test. He IS now a major in the
army, and unquestionably his
insight into the affairs Of the
army and the need of absolute
and unconditional cooperation
with the President, who is com.
mander in chief of the army and
navy, in this war and IN the
working out of problems that
must of necessity come after the
war is over, have served to en-.
force the idea on Major TAYLOR
that Mr.. Harrison can serve
Mississippi better in the Senate
than Mr.. Vardaman.
