Greatest Librarians

Quoting from the New York Times: at was not
long ago that every American student Of the past
had to go abroad for most Of his original material.
Now students Of European history not infrequently
have to come to America to look UP the documents
which are the first-hand records of what has hap
pened in their own countries The reason is that
have become, in less than century since the
movement was started, the greatest librarians in
the world
This has been made possible by the generosity of
rich collectors who have either presented their &C
cpmulated books and manuscripts to existing H.
braries or have endowed libraries still under their
own names, but devoted to public or sem-public
use. But to simply possess these records would be
hut a vanity. America has evolved magical sys
tenn which enables people who use our Libraries t.
find what they want in the minimum time. and, il
the investigation is of Importance, furnishes cen
venient quarters for using the books and docu
mcnts.
I The greatest credit to Americans the great
est librarians is not in the collection and housing
81 Libraries, but in making their use easy and popu
lar. Our libraries are designed and maintained for
use and they admirably fulfill their purpose.

Scientific Giving

American philanthropy has become a household
term throughout the world. So widespread, indeed
the spirit Of benevolence in this country, eff
cent is it's organization and scientific it's admins
traton, that it may almost be said that giving has
become one Ct the leading industries. But with all
the bencvolence Americans insist that phanthropic
schemes be practical and that their administration
be subject to the same scientific exactness as any
other transaction involving large sums Of money.
The old haphazard giving is fast disappearing
with the result that many frauds deprived Of
easy money and more real cases Of need aided There
is much less overlapping and duplication.
And to the accusation that there is no longer a
heart in charity the is that there is plenty
of heart but there is also q head Which is as it
should be. All sentiment and no sense is poor
combination in any event and should apply to phan-
thropy as we'll as to any ether activity.
