Local Shippers and Agents Waiting
For New Shipping Rule.


Altho the news was given out In
Des Moines Wednesday that the sail
ing day order for less than carload
shipments OF freight had been re-
scinded copies of the communication
from the state railroad commission, on
which the news story were based that
have been received hers, do not say
that the war time order has been re-
scinded. The communication Is to the
effect that the formal order resembling
the wartime shipping measure will be
issued soon by the director general OF
railroads. In the meantime local
shippers and local freight agents OF
railroads are waiting.
All that is now lacking to abolish
the sailing day rule and put the less
than carload freight business back on
the old basis, is the issuance OF the
formal order Fy the director general.
An agreement for the adjustment or
the sailing day rule has been reached
between the railroad commissions OF
the states interested. tho sailing day

THE GROWTH Of THE
PUBLIC LIBRARY

II our new registrations are any
indications Of growth, the popula-
tion of the city is rapidly approach
ing 10000. During the month Of
September we had 1874 new Dor
rowcrs alone, not including re-
registrations. such as those of the
boys who have been overseas and
are now home again. Most OF the
new borrowers have come from
other cities where they have been
used to modern libraries and many
of them are already property own
ers. The occupations indicated Gov
er a wide range -students, house
wives, the professions. business and
industry. The demands which we
are now called upon to meet are no
longer those of the small public Ii
brary but those of live library in
a growing city. We bear a very
close analogy to the young man who
is rapidly approaching his fathers
stature, but who remains stIll
clothed in his boyhood's suit.
We are especially short on up
to-date reference books Every day
We are called upon for information
which could easily be found in
modern encyclopedia, but alas, ours
were written in the days of yore.
Our bound magazines, which are a
most important source of informa-
ton, cover only brief period of
ears; most of our sets need COM
plotting. and more magazines should
be bound. The question of binding
is in itself a serious problem; the
cost of binding a single volume, the
Scientific American, for instance,
being $2.75 today. Men and boys
want especially books which will
help them in their Job" A father
comes into the library. and while
he is doubtful about taking out an
application for himself, wants to
sign for his boy or his girl so that
they may use the library When We
note the occupation which he puts
down and can tell him that we have
a good book covering his line of
work, he invariably says: "I'll be
in again and look at that book, for
of course we have only one copy,
and that is out.

TO PHOTO PRINTERS
OUT OF THEIR Jobs

Elimination of typc-setting, one
of the costliest operations of
magazine production, by the use
Of plates made by photo
graphing the original typewriter
copy. has been accomplished in the
October 18th issue of the Literary
Digest, consisting of so pages. This
radical innovation, which was
brought about by the printers
strike in New York, leads the pub
fishers to suggest that lit is posi-
whole future of magazine produc-
Bile in this age of marvels that the
ton may be revolutionized by the
elimination of type-setting. y
The makeup of the magazine is
in no way changed, the only diff
ference being that the style of the
type is that used on typewriters and
is uniform in all the reading mat
ter throughout the number. The
right-hand side of each column is
irregular, as in ordinary typewrit-
ten copy.

NOT so BIG A BUNCH

Loyal Legion Smoker at Everett,
Wash, held on August &c, was par
ticipated in by all the Locals in Ev-
erett, five in number at that time.
A large crowd packed the hall and

The above was taken from the
Ais Bulletin of Oct, 1919. When
Committee from the Timberwork-
ers and AIS went to see the man
ager of a hall in Everett to make
arrangements to secure the hall for
the Ais VS. Timberworkers De-
bate, they were asked how many
chairs they would need, and the
Ais representative said that his
organization had about 500 mem
bers. After he had made this state
ment the manager said he didn't
believe they had that many, because
when they held their smoker he had
placed $50 chairs in the hall for
them and there were only ABOUT
half of them used. and that half OF

Everett for their cooperation and
support:
Whereas, the Everett Public Lii
brary Board, serving in its capacity
for the good of the public at large
without any remuneration whatso-
ever, has deemed it necessary in the
interests of the entire community to
petition the City Council to submit
proposition to the voters at the
next election for an increase in the
tax levy for the support of the Pub
lie Library, and whereas the City
Council has gone on record author
izing the preparation of such an
ordinance, be it resolved that the
Library Board urges the citizens of
the City of Everett to cooperate
with them in their endeavor to Sc
cure more adequate support for an
institution so vital to our schools,
our homes and the entire intellec-
tual life of our city.
The need for more books and
better books for the boys and the
girls of this community is appall-
ing; the cost of books and especially
children's books, makes them pro-
hibitive to homes of modest means.
It therefore becomes not only mat
ter o. public necessity, but of pri-
vate economy as we'll, that this
measure be given the support of ey-
cry individual interested in the flu
ture welfare and education of our
young people as well as the support
of every public spirited citizen in
terested in the progressive develop
ment of our city.

FOR COMMISSIONER
OF PUBLIC WORKS.
0. F. WEFFERLING

Organized labor has endorsed one
candidate for Commissioner of Pub
Tic Works; that candidate is quail
flied for the office.
The Central Labor Council has
placed it's seal Of approval upon Os-
carcar +. Wefferling for Commits
sioner Of Public Works
Mr.. Wefferling came to Everett
from st. Louis, Mo, i . years ago,
and commenced plying his vocation
of iron molder in the foundry of the
Washington Stove Works. where he
has been employed since
He is past as years Of age and
has a family.
Mr.. Wefferling has a knowledge
of public affairs not possessed by
many of his fellow citizens, and is
a close observer of municipal af-
fairs, which adds much to his quail
ifications for the office.
It should be said to his credit that
he did not seek the office for which
he is a candidate and would not be
financially benefited by it, but ac-
copied the nomination only after re-
peated urgent opportunities of a
host of warm friends.
Mr.. Wefferling has l2ng and eff
GENTLY served the labor cause and
is now Secretary of the Central La
Dor Council. Labor knows him as a
thorough, capable, painstaking Of
ficial who would be a credit to the
city. He never jumps at conclu-
sions, but when he sees the right
course he pursues it.

ing a man of the Wefferling type
for Commissioner of Public Works.
