to soldiers and sailors on overseas
duty. From the dispatch Office books
are being sent to naval vessels of all
classes and are being placed aboard
army transports for the soldiers back
of the trenches.
The Y. NJ. G.. A. has arranged to put
on transports book cases holding about
125 volumes each. Books for these
cases are being supplied by the A. L. A.
which later will supply the cases also.
These collections will be used as cir
culating libraries on the voyage and
will be emptied at the port of debarka-

to be retilled. The work of distributing
the books in France will be done by the

quests that came to him were. first,
for book on the valuation of public

third, for Roumanian dictionary. He
supplied the first two and later fur
