BACK TO MISSION SCHOOLS
Burmese Students Leave Nationalist
Institutions
Associated Press ].

Rangoon, Jan. 23.-The National
list educational movement In Burma
which originated more than a year
ago appear to be declining.
Large numbers Of students have
been leaving the Nationalist schools
and going back to the government
schools and governmental aided mis-
sionr schools whence they came.
A number of the Nationalist
schools have been closed chiefly be-
cause Of the difficulty of supporting
them without taxation, because no
university will recognize degrees
conferred by the Nationalist College
and because Of the belief held by
many Burman Nationalists that
permanent system of Burmese educa-
tiOn cannot be formed until COM
plete home rule has been attained.

NEW BOOKS FOR OLD ONES
ChiIdren's Department OF Librar,

Not long ago patron OF the IL
brary said that some Of the books
her little girl brought home from
the library were disgrace to Abb
lene. The books were all right but
they were. SO ragged that despite
most careful mending and rebind-
ing. It took all the care that little
hands could command to keep the
worn pages from falling apart as
they were turned. But the books
are much loved by the little folks
who read them and II they were
destroyed there would be no money
to replace them.
Now that's the reason a group OF
little boys and girls want the grown
ups in Abilene to pack the high
school auditorium Thursday night to
hear their lovely Stevenson program
They are going to use the money to
replace those old books which they
like so much with good, substantial
new ones.
