THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

During September, 1919, a beauti-
full sign, Village Library, 1907"
was placed beside the walk to this
public building. 1t recalled to the
villagers the hard labor of residents
and non-residents for the out-of-
door fairs at the town hall. the aid
financially from tourists and gifts of
books, but to one it recalled that
memorable address of DR.. Henry l..
Griffin of Bangor on August 2S, 1907,
in which he said:
Libraries have been established be-
cause they serve the public good, pro
mote. intelligence and good citizenship
What does this library suggest? This
graceful and beautiful building sug-
gests the ministry Of architecture to
education and the community. The
proximity of library and church sug
gests the alliance of church and Ii
brary as ministering to the needs of
the people. Moreover education needs
religion to promote the highest civil
ization o secure an all-round and ade-
quate manhood and womanhood. On
the other hand, religion needs educa-
tion to promote an Intelligent, rational
and satisfying faith. The founders of
our republic rightly so judged, and

ONE THING MISSIONARY KNEW
And the Knowledge Enabled Him to
Score a Direct Hit off the
Bullying Skipper.

Bishop Mitchell said the other day:
Missionaries are a good deal de-
rided and reviled since the World
war. Why try to convert the heather,
people cry, when we're still so unre-
generate ourselves?
"a Methodist missionary was travel
ing in a steamer along the west coast
Of Africa. The skipper kept making
fun of him. The idea of his trying to.
better the heather! Why not first bet
ter his own people-get them to stop
using poison gas and all that sort OF
thing2 Missionaries were no good,
anyway. An ignorant, lazy lot.
1.-The missionary stood a good deal
of this talk, and then one day at din
ner he said to the skipper:
1--WE missionaries are ignorant, and
you, of course, know a great deal.
Sailing these African waters so many
years, l suppose you can tell me the
length of an alligator's tongue?
Sure 1 cam clustered the skip
per. 'Surest thing you know!
"'Well, then, what is itT
cit depends said the skipper, 'on
the length of the alligator
"'An right. Suppose the alligator
is 10 feet longT
The skipper looked around the
table. All the passengers bent for
ward, deeply interested in this lingual
duel-this tongue battle, so to speak.
IF the alligator's 10 feet long the
skipper said, it's tongue will be three
feet long
Wrong" said the missionary,
calmly I'm only an ignorant mission
airy, but 1 know that alllgators don't
have tongues Detroit Free Press.

SPREAD WARNING OF STORMS
stocknen Notified of Coming Unfa-
vorable Weather Conditions in
Time to Take Precautions.

Cold waves, heavy SHOWS, high
winds and billiards vitality interest
the stock growers of the great range
states of the West. The weather bu-
reau of the United States Department
of Agriculture, in its endeavor to as
sist the stockmen. issues warnings OF
these unfavorable conditions which
are dangers to farm animals and To
those who Craze on the range. These
warnings are widely distributed by
telegraph and telephone to large cen
tiers, but further dissemination de
wolves on those interested. The prob
lem has been largely solved in some
of the states, particularly Missouri, by
telegraphing the warning to one cen
trail point in each county, where ar
engagements are made to telephone in
formation of the warnings to each
community interested.
When a warning is received stock
men arrange to Craze their stock near
shelter, or in such a direction from
shelter that the stock will drift to-
ward it when the anticipated severe
weather comes. A modification of this
service consists of strengthening and
lambing forecasts and warnings. In
early shearing and lambing districts
shearing is delayed or newly shorn
sheep. ewes and young lambs are kept
near suitable shelter, such as coulees,
where they will receive protection
when wind, snow or cold rains are ex-
Dected.

RoadIess Russia.

Russia is almost a roadless land. 1t
is inconceiYable to the foreign visitor
who has ever left the beaten track of
the railways in Russia how a great
empire can have subsisted so long and
so successfully without even pre-
tense ut roads. The secret lies in the
fact that for five or six months in
the year nature herself provides
roads over the greater part of Russia
admirable smooth. glossy roadways
over hard-worn snow. The traffic Is
further cheapeued over these roads
by the substitution of a sledge runner
for the wheel and axle. This brings
the cost of land carriage as near the
cheapness of water-borne freight as
possible. and it is the principal rea-
son why Russia in the Twentieth cen
fury is still a roadless land.
