LIBRARY SERVICE
BY PARCEL POST
(By Associated Pressl

COLUMBUS, Ohio June Library
service by parcel post is an innova-
ton in a program of statewide library
services, under the direction of the
new state librarian, Herbert S. Hirsh-
berg
The only cost to the reader is post
age, to be refunded to the library for
books sent out. A patron may have
book two weeks, as rule, but on re-
quest, the issue will be made for four
weeks. The only formality is the
signing of an application blank, and
orders are filled at once, and sent out
the same day.
The 100000, persons of the state,
who haven't access to libraries in their
own communities have first claim on
the library's service, Librarian Hirsh-
berg declared. Readers who have &C.
cess to libraries are asked to call up
on them first, but they are at liberty
to call upon the state library for any
book they are unable to obtain in their
local Libraries.
Requests for the service, according
to Hirshberg, come from small viii
lagos, rural schools and farms.
It has been announced that Mrs.
Kathryn Sharpe of New Philadelphia,
has been appointed to the position of
acting chief of the accessions division
of the state library service.

MURRETTE

Mechanical contraptions that are
as grotesque as the ridiculous dreams
one sometimes has may be found in
the new Max Linder feature comedy,
BE My Wife," a Goldwyn release, to
be shown at the Murrette theatre
starting Thursday. For this photo
play. Mr.. Linder has had trick room
constructed which, to the casual OBJ
server, is fashionable modiste shop.
But the customers are not the ones
usually to be found in such stores.
When the gang" is all there" some
one presses button, and all the mil
linery turns into some useful instru-
ment for the dispensation of cooling
and satisfying drinks. The hero IS
quite at sea upon finding himself in
such a place; but his reactions are
quite normal and decidedly humorous.
The story of BE My Wife" was
written and directed by Mr.. Under
himself. It centers about the hero's
attempts to convince his sweetheart 5
aunt-his arch enemy-that he should
marry her niece. Until he disposes
of his rival, he has many exciting
and humorous experiences. It is a
typical &Iax Under comedy, and sure
to amuse anyone with a sense of the
ridiculous.

MURRAY

mOHHAY
"a Tale of Two Worlds" which
opens at the Murray theatre Thursday
reveals much for the photoplay goer
to be thankful for. In the first place,
1t has a story, really gripping story
Of love and intrigue, in which a young
American is given the opportunity of
his life to exercise his intelligence and
his physical courage The spur for
all his efforts is an American girl who
has been brought to San Francisco
Chinatown after her parents were
killed in the Boxer uprising of 1899.
This exciting tale is by Gouverneur
Morris, one of the Eminent Authors
whose productions are being made at
the Goldwyn Studios. It was directed
by Frank Lloyd.
A second point of satisfaction is the
acting of beautiful Leatrice Joy as the
American girl. Miss Joy, it will be re-
membered, played the role of Bunty in
the Goldwyn production of "Bunty
Pulls the Strings" Not only is the
acting in "a Tale of Two Worlds" ex-
cellent, but the production itself
equals any that has yet come from the
Goldwyn workshop; and this is no
small praise.
One of the scenic features of the
picture is the faithful reproduction of
a Chinese street in San Francisco. 1t
is real enough for natives to recognize
the shops. All in all, this picture not
only tells a good story in a splendid
manner, but also reveals a page of his
tory beautifully and dramatically.

BILLY'S CATASTROPH

Billy is just about to give up
hope when a little speck of azure
widened in the western heavens
and a beautiful rainbow brightens
forth Every dark cloud has a
silver lining" Billy thinks, as he
notices the rainbow. 1t cheered
him up and he stuck his hands in
his pocket and gave loud whoop,
But this storm being over does
not fix my plane" he said.
He was due in New York in three
hours as he left his camp where he
was stationed in New Jersey at |
o'clock that noon. He had impor-
tant business papers for the govern
ment.
The whoop Billy gave out brought
a farmer to his rescue who had fled
at the approaching storm. Billy,
who was given to outburst when the
occasion demanded it. reached out
for the farmers hand and hailed
him as his deliverer,
"Howdy," said the farmer, shak-
ing his hands lose from Billy's tight
clasp, I'm trouble?"
Yep" said Billy, and on i'm
portant business. too"
Cant | help" inquired the
farmer.
Sure" replied Billy. He pulled
out his watch and made a terrible
face. "Gee," said Billy, wasted

aiming the broken belt, said, Say
young Teller, what are the neces
sary repairs? Perhaps | can help
you" at the same time producing
a kit of repairs belonging to his
machine in nearby field
where he had been at work. Billy
eagerly seized the tools and deftly
made the needed repairs. He was
soon smiling once more. Billy gave
the farmers hand farewell

plane and was soon sailing upward
into the smiling sky" as he called

He arrived at The camp at the
exact time in New York. He de

See Old Faithful
in Park Picture

The SAB and CAB of Whitewater
school had a pleasant trip to the
High school Monday, Jan 23.
There they saw pictures of the
Yellowstone National park.
One of the most interesting pic
lures was that Of Old Faithful the
most famous geyser in the Yellow
stone National park. It erupts ev-
cry 60 minutes and throws a
stream of hot water one hundred
and twenty feet high.
We also saw some scenes of the
hot spring terraces. They are
made by the lime in the water
The terraces are also colOred by
bands of yellow and red. Minerals
in the water cause the cOlors to
form in the lime
The children saw boiling mud.
1t looked like hot much as it bub-
bled to let gas and steam escape,
which was underneath the mud
The pictures of the birds were
interesting, too. They liked the
pictures of the sea-gulls and the
ocean, the best.
The trip was enjoyed by all who
went
The picture helped to make our
geography seem real.
1t would be fine to have pictures
of Hawaii, the Philippine Islands,
and Alaska.
All the children would like to
study Geography. then-Elizabeth

The day had been a beautiful one.
Clouds were beginning to gather in
the golden west. But now the sky
is getting darker, Clouds are gath
ering with a direful intent against
the brightness and the warmth of
the summer afternoon. They are
black as ebony, and at intervals
their thunder rolls distant along the
deep of the heavens.
An airplane is seen in the dis
lance. Plotting the airship is a
young man of about twenty-three
years. His name is Lieutenant Will
liam Stanton, but known as Billy
by his friends.
AS Billy looks carefully down he
sees beneath him the sea stretching
away towards an unseen boundary,
blue and calm, except where the
passing anger Of a shadow fits
across its surface and is gone.
The clouds within a little time
have gathered over all the sky,
hanging heavily, as if to drop in
one unbroken mass upon the earth.
The lightning flashes, quivers, dis
appears, then comes the thunder
travelling slowly after.
Billy notices that a strong wind
has sprung up to rebel against the
approaching storm 1t has begun TO
rain, and, as he glances down once
more, he observes that the sea is
not as calm as it. was. The foam
breaks out in long. white lines upon
a broad eXpanse of blackness, boils
up in far distant points like snowy
mountain tops.
Billy has a worried look on his
face He is not thinking of the
coming storm, but of something of
more Importance TO him. He leans
over in his airship and listens. He
listens again. He sees below him
the sea. Lightning is playing all
about him, but Billy has been in
many other storms before when it
was lightning worse than this.
The worried look on his face is
because he knows his airship is not
hitting right He discovered that |
the belt of his propeller is breaking |
in two He knows he will descend, !
But where? He finds himself now |
slowly descending into the sea, he
thinks. But he does not realize it |
has been quite a while since he last |
glanced down. Billy resolves to let |
Fate work things out. Looking
down once more, he sees not the |
angry sea, but green plain and |
little hills of the country over
which the giant OF the storm is
in robes of mist He at
once descends slowly, but surely,
and alive. He steps out of the ma
'hine and sees it will take help TO
tx the belt OF the propeller that has
in two. He is on important
business and cant waste a second.
He chances at his watch and shakes
his head saying. only three hours
