LIBRARY HAS NEED
OF FINANCIAL HELP
In Order That it May Continue
to Serve the Commu-
nifty Free.

The financial report of the Wilmington
| Institute Free Library for 1871 020 con
| tans certain suggestive figures. Since
| William T. Bancroft made this library
| free to the people of Wilmington, through
his generous gifts and his successful
efforts in effecting the agreement with
the city under which il operates, a period
of over 25 years has elapsed, during which
time no bequests have been received, and
no gifts made to the library for the pur
chase Of books, or for any purposes, with
certain very notable exceptions namely,
+. s du Points munifcent gift for new
library at Tenth and Market streets, the
campaign fund of 1916, in which hundreds
of Wimingtonians shared and gave
1926, 900 for n new building, and the
bequest of $500 by James Harvey Pierce
lawyer of Chicago, who lived IN his
youth in Wilmington, and thus expressed
in this provision Of his will his appreciation
of the service the library bad been TO HIM
many years before. Grateful mention is
also made in the report of the annual
subscriptions from the Joseph Bancroft
& Sons Co and the Noodlawn Trustees,
bv which the support Of Rockford Branch
and Woodlawn Station is made possible
These gifts make up the total received
from the public during the past 25 years
This year, therefore, IS notable, for as
will be seen in the report, several persons
gave sums aggrcgating So 200 for the
acquisition of the books collected in and
around Wilmington for many Years be

to secure many books Of unique value to.
Wilmngtonian and Delawareans. Another
user Of the ihrary's privileges n recent
arrival in Wilmington, grateful for the
facilities offered sent check for SIS
for the purchase Of books. 1t is such gifts
as these by bcquest and from annual
subscribers that the library needs in
these days when its funds for upkecp
and the acquisition Of new books arc so
seriously impaired By the decreased pur-
chasing value Of the dollar In AIassa-
chusctts. for the year 1910, 10 libraries
outside Of Boston received a total sum
of Sl2Q.O0O in small gifts or bequcsts of

NO BACK-DowN ON AMUSEMENT.
Paragraph No. $50 of the Discipline
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
which relates to amusements. will retain
ITS old familiar place and answer to the
| same old number if the mind of the COM
mIttee on the state of the church main
talns its present status So far there Is
shown little or no disposition favoring
its discard.
It is stated that there is now being
worked out a recrcational idea which Will
not eliminate or weaken, but which will
be designed to support the amusement
paragraph rs it now stands. This plan
as II is being discussed would, perhaps,
involve the election to official boards of n
recreational steward whose duty would
he to provide recreation and social life
for the younger people of the church.
At the present time 1T is very evident
there will be two reports from the COM
mittee having the proposal to merge the
Christian Advocates of the church when
the action of that committee is announced
to the conference.
The majority report Is not expected to
favor the merger, but IT Is expected that
MIR. Marvin Campbell, who is responsible
largely for the proposal before the church,
will submit minority report and carry
the fight t. the floor of the conference.
Mr.. Campbell has sort of revised hiSfor
idea Of merger and now it is expected he
will propose only the consolidation of
three Of the papers, and these three are
the Northwestern Christian advocate,
Chicago, the Central Christian Advocate
Kansas City, and the Western Christian
Advocate, Cincinnati lie will also insist
that the name of the consolidated advo-
Gates be Methodist Advocate. Little
support on the floor Of the Conference is
looked for in behalf of Mr.. Campbell's
plan
ItWas during the discussion on the adop-
ton Of the report of the committee on
eplscopacv in relation TO episcopal resi-
dcnccs, that the first real clash came
DR. T.. r. Redhead Of Northern New
York Conference moved to substitute
Syracuse for Buffalo rs the residence
Of the Bishop Of that area For an hour
the debate hinged upon this one point.
Rcdhead charged that proper representa-
tion in the Subcommittee had not been
had and was supported by a number Of
men from his section. Buffalo supporters
were none the less numerous and in the
end won that phase Of the debate when the
motion to substitute was lost

The Bicycle has become Sc much
a part of modern life as a utility and
means of exercise and recreation
that cyclists do not realize that the
bicycle of today represents century of
development.
These drawings show how the old
fashioned "hobby horse" OF century
ago has been succeeded in turn by the
"boneshaker" in Civil War days, the
high wheel affairs used during the 70s
down to the safety" of generation
ago.
Women riders will remember some
of the later models by the styles that
were in vogue at the different periods
Of bicycle development.
When the fair cyclists of 1875
perched themselves on the clumsy con-
traptions of those early periods. they
were objects more of ridicule than of
envy. But bicycles have grown in pop
ularity because they fill q need that
nothing else can.
