SPAIN HAS STARTED
LIBRARY MOVEMENT
Especial Correspondence to The journal. )

Especial Correspondence TO The Journal
New York. Marcif 2S.-Spain has
started Books for Everybody
movement. 1t has even gone a step
farther than the American Library
association in its enlarged program
TO bring books to the people and
people to the books.
In the public parks of Madrid,
Spanish authorities have set up
small collections of books for the
use of the frequenters of the open
places of the city, and the success
of the innovation has been attested
by the demand hade on the little
libraries.
Spain evidently recognized the
value of self education through
proper reading matter and has
adopted this novel scheme to tempt
those with a few minutes or hours
leisure to employ their minds to the
best advantage. In this move it is
running on a parallel track to that
of the American Library associa-
ton which has launched its Books
for Everybody" movement
throughout the United States for
tn main purpose of bringing the
best in the world of literature with
in easy access of every man., wom-
an and child in the nation.
By promoting the extension of
library service to the $4,000, 900
persons now adequately served. the
A. l. A. hopes to open the high
ways OF vast opportunity for self
education, better citizenship and
general advance of knowledge.

STUDENTS HAVE PLAN
TO REDUCE EXPENSES

Especial Correspondence to The JournaI)
Chicago, March 2S.---Students of
Moody Bible institute have hit
upon a novel plan of financing
themselves through school. They
have established a unique system
of brokerage and commission bust
ness by which it is possible for the
500 students to buy practically
everything they need without leav-
ing the institution.
On the bulletin board are ad-
vcrtised clothes. shoes. typewriters,
stationery and all kinds of student
necessities. The virtues of the
articles are briefly extolled and the
name and room number of the stu
dent acting as selling agent are
given. When a student wants a
typewriter, for instance, he buys
it through another student who
pockets a commission from the
typewriter firm for selling it. BY
such business methods the stu
dents not only help. themselves but
the other fellow.
