Public Library to Reopen Tomorrow.
After being closed for ten days our
library will be open tomorrow after
noon for the circulation of books.
The library is now in it's new quar-
tiers in the high school building in a
room built especially for the purpose.
This room is large and light with a
southern exposure and a separate en-
trance from the vestibule, so that the
general public may have access to it
without having to enter the school
building proper. The shelving and the
large magazine rack were built accord
ing to the blueprints furnished by the
head office of the state library de-
partment. -...
Miss Clara Baldwin, state director
of libraries, was here from Tuesday
to Friday of last week classifying and
arranging the books so that they could
be catalogued by our librarian, Mrs.
L. Owens. Miss Baldwin also weeded
out and discarded all the undesirable
books as we'll as those which had out
lived their usefulness. The library
board has just purchased two hundred
and thirty new books so the shelves of
the library now show no ragged,
worn-out volumes. All are in good
condition if not actually new.
The classification and cataloguing
occupied many hours, and it was neces-
sary that the library be closed until it
was finished. The work was has
tened as much as possible by having a
corps of workers assist the librarian.
This corps was made up Of teachers,
members of the library board, and of
students from the commercial depart
ment Of the high school, who attend
ed to the typewriting.
Our library is, Of course, only very
small one,-much smaller than it
should be for town the size of Prince
ton,-but what there is of it is good
and everything is in shipshape order.
1t has been hard struggle, with the
limited funds available, to 'get our
library into the class it now occupies
and it is to be hoped that~there will
soon be larger amount Of money
to be used for this purpose.
The library is to be open for refer
ence work during all the school hours
and for the circulation of books from
2 to 5 every afternoon in the week
except Saturday and Sunday, and

Democratic leaders are sounding
Mr.. Hoover to ascertain whether he
would accept the presidential nominA-
ton Of their party if offered to him.
We fear that, under the circumstances,
this will avail the democrats nothing,
for did not Professor Wilson instruct
Mr.. Hoover to file for the nomination
as a republican? However, if the
democrats are not satisfied with either
of the men who have announced their
candidacy we. would suggest that they
approach Frank Day. A little coaxing
would, perhaps, decide him to file.

Martial law has been proclaimed in
Jerusalem as result of frequent at
tacks upon the Jews by Mohammedans.
British troops are in control of the
city and have the situation we'll in
hand, but race wars are certain to

driven from the city. The Jews are
a peaceable, thrifty people, while the
Mohammedans are exactly the OPP

Poor old Ireland appears to be ren

Poor old Ireland appears to be rent
asunder from coast to coast-east and
west, north and south. Sim Feiners
are destroying property and taking
life, and the British government
seems to be unequal to the task Of
coping with the situation. Recent re-
ports say that 22O police stations have
been destroyed by mobs in various
parts Of the country, several persons
killed, and that a general revolution
is pending. 1t is pity that some way
has not been found of settling the
Irish question so that peace may pre-
vail.

There are many people in New
York and other down-east states who
are imbued with the impression
that the middle west is still infested
with bandits and cutthroats. News

and bank robberies in Minneapolis are
probably responsible for the eastern
ers' belief. So let US not blame them.

Professor Wilson has apparently
selected a very appropriate place to
pass the summer-W Woods Hole, or a
hole in the, woods. When he espies
through his periscope the approach
of unwelcome visitors to his hole he
can pull down the trapdoor and bolt
it on the inside. There are times when
man seeks seclusion in which to re-
fleet upon the past and the president
is among those greatly in need of it.

Horace G. Whitmore, adjutant of
the American legion for the depart

ton by congress of the legion's bill
which provides that all aliens who
have lived in this country for a period
of five years and have not become
citizens shall be deported to their ma
tive lands. All true American citi-
zens will agree with Mr.. Whitmore
that this measure should become a
law Any foreigner who has received
the benefits of this country for five
years and not become naturalized is
an undesirable person unfit to live

Only Two Things.

Simmered down there are only two
things which go to make a town-ad-
vertising and performance. There is
no use advertising if you can't produce
the goods and no use in producing the
goods if you don't advertise them.
Speak well of public-spirited men and
be one of them. No towns is benefited
by the man who sits down and waits
for the more enterprising person to do
the boosting and neither is it by the
man who fails to deliver when called
upon to do a public service. -Biwabik

LIVE STOCK AND RANGES
 IN ARIz. AND NEW MEX.

From the Grand Canyon south tc Crown King and from Seligman east ward to Pinedale unusually heavy
 rains have fallen during the past week, according to weekly reports to
 the Weather Bureau. The heaviest precipitation for the four days of rain fall was 5.74 inches at Williams. Light to moderate rain has fallen in the southern part of the State. As the weather has been moderately warm the effect on stock has not been det- rimental as pastures continue to inn prove, affording an abundance of range feed, and water is plentiful. The development of winter annuals is remarkable and has not been equalled in years. Reports from nearly all portions of the desert section, south ward to the Mexican border, are that conditions are very good. In the north-central counties many roads are closed to auto traffic, bridges have been washed out, culverts and cross ings rendered impossible. In num- erous instances channel changes will necessitate reconstruction of bridges.
