requested that honorable body tc

which we could begin the regular

This meeting was held. And,
with Slight exception, there was
not a protest against the dipping
of cattle. 1t was plainly seen
that the sentiment of the Parish
was in favor of cradicating the
cattle tick.

WHY LIBRARIANS LIKE JOB
Get Amusement Out of Singular
Transformation of Book Titles in

The scholastic hush of the public

but the Ubrarianettes in the central

refuge from hard work in the COM
pilation of the singular transforma-
tons of book titles that take place in
the memories of seekers for literary
sweetness n light. Herewith is the
latest unofficial bulletin, according to
a New York Sun writer:

Anyway. the National League of Women Voters
lodged making answer. II asked the Women's
Joint Congressional ommitte to make the selec-
ton. That body also lodged full responsibility
and Inns announced that 1t will ask FIVE prominent
men to help In the selection. And at the present
writing that is as near as Senorlta Mandujano's
question has come to receiving what may be called
an official answer.
In the meantime scores of lists have made their
appearance-some serious, some good. some bad,
some Indifferent.
In the lists the writer has seen the names of
elghty-three women have been given. each selected
as one of the twelve greatest living American
women.
The observing reader has doubtless noted that
the portraits given herewith number but eight,
in addition to that Of the woman who has started
all this discussion. The reason is this the writer
would not dare to try to name the twelve greatest
women. He is merely grouping the portraits of
eight women who seem to be popular choices.
inasmuch as they appear in nearly all the lists.
1t Is of course a work of supererogation to name
and describe these eight women. However. they

SMALL BIBLE TO BE
 MADE TO AID BLIND

NEW YORK, March 30.-The Amer ican Bible Society announced today it was producing small handy volu- ume of Scripture selections for the blind. The purpose is to have a gift book for easy handling by the aged and invalids, and for easy carrying by those who travel. The cost of the book will be very moderate so that it can be widely circulated. The pass ages of Scripture will be among those universally cherished by Christians for instruction, comfort and inspira- tion.
 The blind are not only handicapped seriously by blindness, but by the ne cessary bulk and cost of books in em- bossed systems. While an ink-print Bible can be supplied for fifty cents, an average embossed Bible for the blind costs over $50. The fifty-cent ink-print Bible weighs about pound, while an average Bible for the blind weighs over 15O pounds. It takes from eleven to fifty-eight volumes, accord ing to the embossed system used, to make a Bible, the pages of which are 13x14 inches on an average.
 The small volume will consist of approximately forty sheets 7x14 inches and will weigh about one pound. It will be the nearest approximation of a vest pocket edition ever issued for the blind.

CITY OF PLAINS HAS PLAN TO
 BE AIRPORT

KANSAS CITY, Mo, March 30. - Kansas City, in the cen ter of future air planes east and west and north and south will become a prominent air port this summer
 The first step has just been taken, the leasing of a landing-field ninety acres in extent, a great level plain ample to meet all requirements for the biggest and fastest cruisers of the air. The field is the same tract used last fall for the big flying meet held in connection with the American Le zion convention. It was nothing but an emergency field then, but in spite of this over 100 airplanes used the field during the meet, more than 3000 passengers were carried, a full pro- gram of speed and stunt events was carried out daily, and yet not an ac- cident occurred.
 The Legion air meet proved an awakening for this city to the needs of air navigation, and the city will shortly be placed on aeronautical maps as having one of the finest fields and air ports in the country.
 COMMERCIAL LINES PROJECTED
 Commercial air lines between Kan sas City and Chicago and Kansas City and Denver are already project ed, and it is expected that other lines will provide air transportation from the city of Tulsa, Okla, and points south. If the United States aero mail lines are extended mail planes will tap the cross s-continental air-mail route at Omaha, only a twohour "hop" to the north by plane.
 The first building operations at the field will be an office building, to in clude a space for oil and gasoline sup plies, and portable steel hangar, 60 by 100 feet, which will accommodate twelve planes of average size.
 Requests for other hangar space have already been made to the Fly ing Club of Kansas City, through whose efforts the air port has become certainty.
 Three airplanes from Arcadia Field, Fla, will be used in a school of in- struction in flying to be conducted by former army fliers.
 densburg, N. Y, has secured hangar space and will ship machines here for demonstration purposes.
 Other hangars will be occupied by local aviators.
