LIBRARIES ON WHEELS

If people living in rural communi-
ty can not come to the library, the
library will go to them. This is the
spirit that is impelling State and
county library authorities to send into
rural communities automobile trucks
equipped with shelves containing
books belonging to the stacks of pub
lie libraries. Patrons may borrow
books from these libraries on
wheels "and either return them by
parcel post or keep them until future
visits of the trucks.
According to the American Library
Association, the first use of wagon
as a means of carrying books to peo-
pie in rural districts was made by the
Washington County Library at
Hagerstown, Md, in 1905; but it was
not until the past few years that the
plan was used to any considerable ex-
tent. The Delaware State Library
Commission and the public library de-
partment of the State Department of
Education of Vermont use automo-
biles equipped with bookshelves as a
means of distributing books to people
living in the rural communities. The
Iowa Library Association has recently
equipped a book truck and started it
on a tour of the State for the purpose
of demonstrating this service.
Birmingham, Alabama; Clarksdale,
Mississippi; Detroit, Michigan; Dur
ham, n. Carolina; Elkhart, Logans-
port, and Rochester, Indiana; Harris
burg, Pennsylvania; and Portland,
Oregon, are some of the cities that
are working out the problem of
county library extension by means of
book trucks.
The success of the plan depends,
largely upon having one in charge
of the truck who knows books and is
interested in children's and adults
reading. He must be able to select
books which will appeal to the read
ers and be enthusiastic for the work
he is doing.

A FALSE REPORT

To the Voters of Garrett County,
A report seems to have been
circulated in certain sections of
the county to the effect that if
nominated and elected to the
State Senate from Garrett coun-
ty it is my intention to introduce
legislation to exempt the Power
Company operating near Oak
land from taxation.
| cannot understand why any
one should circulate a report of
this nature and it is absolutely
false. ~.+s1aa.@se
l will appreciate the favor
very much if anyone to whom
it is told will kindly drop me a
note and let me know who is do
ing it. Certainly as one of the
largest individual taxpayers in
the county, l would not be in ia
vor of an act of this kind, which
by exempting a corporation from
taxes would increase what the
rest of us would have to pay.
| am not in favor of exempt
ing any property, including the
buildings or the property COW
cred by water of the said corpor-
alton, or any one else from the
payment of its or their proper
proportion of the tax burden,
and if nominated and elected l
shall certainly take no such ac-
ton to do so.
Very truly yours,
A. D. NAYLOR.

Mrs. Grouse was sadly worried. If
this little fellow couldn't fly, however
would he be able to escape Reddy Fox

ing to do. Now you see, Mister
Smarty, what comes Of thinking you
know it ALL"
"Yes'm," replied poor little Mister
Smarty, meekly.
BY the time he was once more with
his brothers and sisters. he was pretty
well tired out. You see. he had either
to walk or run the distance their stout
wings had taken them. 1t seemed to
him that he had hardly reached them
when Mother Grouse gave the alarm
signal again. Away went all his
brothers and sisters, but he couldn't
fly. Mother Grouse stayed. Hide"
she cried. hide quickly" Then she
ran a little way and began to flop
about as if she couldn't fly. Mean
while, little Mister Snarty had fiat
tened himself on the ground close to
an old log. He could see his mother
Hopping about just in front of a great
two-legged creature. He never had
seen one like it before. This two
legged creature appeared to pay no at
tention to Mrs. Grouse Topping about
as if her wings were broken. Instead,
he came straight toward that old log,
and that meant straight toward little
Mister Smarty. 1t came just as If 1t
knew that Mister Smarty was there.
AS a matter of fact, it did. You see
this terrible two-legged creature was
none other than Farmer Browns Boy.
He had seen that young grouse hide
when the others flew, and he had
guessed right away that something
was wrong or 1t would have flown with
the others. Poor little Mister Smarty.
1t seemed to him as if his heart would
stop beating. Never in all his life had
he been filed with greater terror. At
first he kept perfectly still. because 1t
was the wisest thing to do. Now he
lay perfectly still because he was too
frightened to move. Farmer Browns
Boy stopped down and picked him up.
OF course little Mister Smarty thought
that Farmer Browns Boy was an enc.
my. He was soon to learn that he was
very fortunate young grouse, for
this enemy was the one friend who
could help him.

Protect Garments Against Moths
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| son. Garments cannot be carelessly
folded and wrapped in paper or laid In
the cedar chest and not require extra
care when taken out In order to make
them wearable. 1t is true that some
persons advise against hanging gar
ments on the clothes line, especially
in the sunshine, before brushing and
folding them, while other equally ex'
pert housewives feel assured that this
is the only right method of treating
clothes that are to be put in home
storage.
Preeaution.
Whichever method is preferred, the
one essential Is to rid the garments of
any moths eggs IL one suspects they
may be hidden in folds of the cloth.
Vigorous brushing under seams when
ever possible is one way of eliminating
the eggs. Steaming garments is an
other. This can be done by ironing
over wet cloth until 1t is dry. Small
articles can be dipped in chloroform to
kill the egg germs. Spots should be
taken out. Moths cluster about spots
as if feast had been prepared for
them, and they eat the cloth as well as
the substance of the spots. Chloro-
form can he used on these places both
as a remover and a protection.
Folding.
Never fold a frock so that a line
comes down the center front. Lay the
dress, blouse or skirt front down on
bed or large table and turn back each
side toward the center back. Fold the
sleeves so that they lie fiat and
straight, lengthwise of the garment.
which may now be folded once, twice
or three times, according to the space
it is to occupy. If the article is to be
inclosed in mothproVt bag, see thtt
no metal comes in contact with the
goods. I know of one handsome en-
semble costume with a light silk
frock portion that was o'badly rust
marked from a hanger that the silk
had to be replaced.
The Better Garments.
1t is wise thing to put handsome
frocks either on hangers in mothproof
bags or in boxes such as frocks come
in from stores. BY folding such boxes
and putting them in pile whenever
buying costumes these boxes take up
but little room and are ready for this
use when needed. Boxing dresses is
sometimes prefera BILE to putting them
in bags, that is, if the yoke or sleeve
portions are sheer and fine. The
weight of the garment comes entirely
on the shoulders. and 1t is apt to strain
and tender the goods.
