The Library Driue

What is the library drive? How
did it start? Why IS it necessary?
While it was manifest to all that
our Public library was sadly deficient
in good books, few realized that the
number of volumes that 1t contained
was actually diminishing; that more
were being discarded than were being
replaced. 1t has. been well SAID that
the public library of community Is
very fair criterion of the interest
Of the people of that community IN
Intellectual things. If this is so. the
discovery may we'll tend to AWAKEN
public attention.
Have the people of our city little in
terest in books? However muen the
condition of our library may point 10
this conclusion. the response Whlcn -
being made to the appeal TINS week
certainly shows that this IS nor me
case. People are saying, TITS a. shame
that the city cannot afford to e-xpend
more on its library" Anyhow, some
thing must be done. We have few
books at home that We can spare.
Call around"
While it may be unfortunate that
this method had to be resorted to, to
acquire books for our library, as
doubtless many of the volumes given
will prove unsuitable for various rea-
sons and have to be refused. sun
something had to be done. and this
seemed to be the most practical way
out of the difficulty. The committee
in charge of the drive are highly
elated, not only over the response
which is being given, but also over
the character of the volumes that are
coming in, A very large proportion
are just such books as any library
committee would purchase and many
of these, are practically new.
1t is certainly good suggestion,
from whomsoever, it came. TO make
drive for books for our public library.
If it does nothing more than to bring
the need before the public. it will be
well worth while. Without any doubt.
after this drive is over. the public will
insist that a larger apportionment
must be made for the maintenance of
! this most needful institution. 1t may
| be that some public-spirited citizen
will come forward with substantial
| gift of books or money. There could
be no better way of serving the public.
The books. as they come In. are
being exhibited at the store of the
McClintock- Wright Clothing Co.. who
have very generously placed one of
their large show windows at the dis
posal of the committee. Here the
books may be seen, and, b., attractive
placards, contributed by Rosenwald
Bros, the public is invited to help
make the pile grow. Those who have
| books to contribute may call up the
Y. NJ c. A. and an automobile Will
be sent for them.
1t may be that before. the drive Is
over, which concludes on saturday,
more automobiles than have thus far
been needed, will be required, Offers
to help in this way may also be made
to the Y. M. G. A. II gslz

HOW noLsnEy1sM WOULD WORK.

Working underground in this coun-
try is mysterious and far-reaching
movement which seeks the destruc-
ton of the entire economic system on
which is built all business and pros
perity, It is a mysterious, disinteg-
rating infection from the fanatical
east.
Many of the people who fear these
ideas most have it'll notion of what
they are, They would not know what
they are. They would not know what
to say to a Bolshevst if they saw one.
1t will be well for al of us 10 under
stand more clearly what thus doctrine
is that has swept through Europe like
the influenza. 1t should be met with
common sense appeal to facts,
Bolshevism, as set forth m Russia
and adopted in substance by a con-
siderable element in this country, is
the idea that every factory, every rail
road, every industry with its entire
plant and equipment, should be owned
either by the state or By all the work
ers employed in mat industry. These
workers should take all the proceeds
of their operation and divide them up
upon some principle to be agreed upon.
No one should be allowed to vote who
employs any other person.
If operated 10y the state, control of
the state must be in a soviet govern
ment.
Bolshevists argue that any indus
trial plant rightfully belongs to the
group Of people who work in that
plant. They think. if these workers
had the courage and the power. they
would walk MP to the office tomorrow
and say to the hirelings of the capt
talist: This plant is ours and we are
going to operate it for our own bene-
fit If you wish to take hold and
work with us, you can share alike
with us"
The Bolshevists say this scheme
would lift the burdens of poverty and
raise ali humanity to a beautiful realm
of happiness concord, and well being.
How would it work in practice?
1t has ruined Russia and Austria
starving the very people who expect
ed to benefit by it.

Without further ado she took a roll
of manuscript from her hand bag
and peeled off the first rhyme of the
series, 1t was entitled. Lawyers, So
Many of You Become Great" It fol-
lows exactly as it was printed in the
Bazoo:
Lawyers are my subject today,
So many of you become great;
You are all quite noted speakers,
| am very pleased to so state.
Lawyers, you argue before the bar,
You defend and prosecute,
And the mean william is sent to Jail,
Which is not very cute.

Tt happened that six members of
the Woman's Betterment League were
in the Bazoo's back office. Editor
Perte was so deeply impressed with
the rhyme that he summoned the
ladies and had them hear Miss Doo-
little read it again. With the last
word the ladies gave the leagues yell
and applauded with great gusto.
