Riley, the National Poet

Henry A. Beers, in the Yale Review.
 Riley is the Hoosier poet, but he is more than that: he is national poet. His state and his city have honored themselves in honoring him and in Keeping his birthday as a public holi- day. The birthdays of nations and of kings and magistrates have been often so kept. We have our fourth of July, our twenty second of February, our Bincoln's birthday; and we had a close escape from having a Mckinley day. I do not know that the banks are closed and the children let out of school-Rileys children, for all children are his--on each succeeding seventh of October; but I think there is no record elsewhere in our library history of tribute so loving and so universal to a mere men of letters, as the Hoosier State pays annually to it's sweet singer. Massachusetts has its poets and is rightly proud of tl/n, btS$ neither Bryant nor Emerson nor Lowell nor Holmes, nor the more pof- ular Longfellow or Whittier has had his natal day marked down on the calendar sa yearly state fiesta. And yet poets, novelists, playwriters, paint CTS. musical composers, artists of all kinds, have added more to the sum of human happiness, than all the kings and magistrates that ever lived. Per haps Indianians are warmer -hearted than New Englanders; or perhaps they make so much of their poets because there are fewer of them. But this is not the whole secret of it In sense, Riley's poems are provincial. They are intensely true to localn coalitions, local scenery and dialect, childish memories and the odd ways and characters of little country towns But just for this faithfulness to their environment these poems here at home" come home to others whose homes are far away from the Wabash, but are not so very diff ferent after all

 was selected with he greatest care and
 is an unusually strong group of citizens
 both educationally and civically, was
 chosen. c. J. Donald, who has been iden-
 tified with the growth of Fairfield since
 it's beginning was elected for a term of
 five years; Charles A. Buck, another pio-
 neer citizen, for four years; Isaac Morris
 for three years, Mrs. Gresbeck Walsh for
 two years and Ruffin A. Smith for one year,
 Mrs. Walsh is brilliant woman of un- usual mental ability and her experience in educational matters especially fits her to cooperate with the men of the board in making Fairfields Schools the best.
 Much sof the time she has spent in Fair field was to the interest of the civic welfare
 The duties of the new board will be to employ city superintendent of educa- ton, principals and instructors of the schools and supervisors New buildings will also be erected under their super vision.

 FAIRF| F|ELD PIONEER
Has Established Interesting Library and Reading
 Room This Year

In June, 1911, which was in the pio- neer days of Fairfield-in fact, it was | not Fairfield then, but was called Corey-a meeting was held at the home of one of the residents for the purpose of forming club, it's objects | to be literary and social advancement and beneficent work of every kind This was the beginning of the Book Lovers Club. It's membership limit at tEat time was placed at twelve, but has since been raised to eighteen. It's
 ten charter members were Mrs. IT. E. Dalbey, Miss Josephine Dalbey Miss May Dalbey, Mrs. c. J. Donald, Mrs IL l.. Francis, Mrs. R. L. Hicks, Mrs, L. Morris, Mrs. W. M. Person, Mrs. C. M.
 Powell and Miss Judith Powell Mrs. H. E. Dalbey was the clubs first presi- dent and it's succeeding presidents in the regular order of their terms Of
 service are as follows Mrs. w. M. Person, Mrs. A. c. Montgomery Mrs.
 E. L. Foster, Mrs. Groesbeck Walsh.
 Mrs. c. J. Donald, Mrs. C. F. Busch.
 Mrs. Busch is the president of the club
 at this time.
 At the time the club was organized
 It was agreed that each member con-
 tribute book for circulation. One of
 the reasons for this circulating library
 was the inadequate street car facilities
 to Birmingham, which made it most
 lnconvenient to use the Birmingham
 library. At that time late books on
 fiction were contributed, but later on ! looks in reference to the subject of study for the year were contributed. During it's existence the club has de- voted two terms to the study of Eng fish literature. During the war mis-
 cellaneous current topics were made the basis of study and the programmes were very brief in order that as much time as possible could be given to war relief work. This year most interest ing and instructive programmes have been given on French literature and history.
 The club responded during the war to every call made upon it by the Council of Defense and if possible to all other calls for war relief work,
 every member working in all Red Cross and Liberty Loan drives. The principal work of the club this
 year has been the establishment of a In this they have had the hearty CO., operation of the Hypatian Club, Fair fields other literary club

EDUCATION GIVEN CLOSE ATTENTION Plans Under Way for New School Buildings This

Educationally Fairfield is keeping pace with it's other interests and during the past few months has made rapid progress in providing for the education of the numbers of children in her population. There are now two schools and so in- adequate were the two buildings when it came to space an extra building was pro- vided. The former Gate Lodge School, which was operated by the city of Bir- mingham was taken into the Fairfield limits just at the beginning of the first semester and to avoid the city continued to run the school at the expense of the county and Fairfield.
