THE LIBRARY BUDGET

Action of the city council in deciding to increase
the budget of the city library above the original figure
is gratifying to the many patrons OF the library
and the council is to be commended for finding means
to provide sufficient sum- to maintain what Should
be considered very necessary institution.
The worth of library TO a community - par1lcu-
lary good library such we have - IS not to be
measured in terms of dollars and cents. 1t extends
into much wider fields. The pleasure benefit and
comfort patrons of the library get from reading can
not be estimated.
It's value in aiding school students alone would
Justify considerable expense to maintain It. The clt-
zen who believes all our boys and girls are deVothg
their spare time to Jazz will have his opinion changed
by visiting the library almost any night
The council decided to make the budget the same
as for last year. While this is increase over the
action first contemplated it is not in real ty an increase
as the cost of maintaining the library increases each
wear as newer books added.
Had it been found necessary to shorten the hours
which the library is open to the public il would have
been real inconvenience to many persons. To reduce
the working force would have been disrupt the pres
ent efficient organization.
1t is a matter Of satisfaction to have the councils
action come Immediately following Good Book Week,
indicating as does that the council members ndiVd
ualy and collectively recognize the value of the library
to the community and do not wish it to be forced into
q backward step.

A CHILD CALLS FOR HELP

Few of us who have not experienced a tug at the
heart and possibly turned heads at the sight OIL
a crippled child. ~
Instead of turning our heads away from the child,
it is duty to turn toward it with assistance
Monday of next week clinic for crippled chlIdren;
ranging from infancy to Is years. will be held IN III
Centro under the auspices of the California Society Tor
Crippled Children. This organization, representing
all races creeds and classes has dedicated itself to
the aid of crippled children in the State of California
The state itself will supply the necessary medlcad
operation and of the child, provided consent OF
the parents is obtained The society limits ltse1 10
seeking out the cases of crippled children and provid
ing means for having them examined and their cases
diagnosed.
This is quite naturally difficult task Parents
of crippled children especially among the poorer class
inclined to resent what they consider interference
on the part of outsiders. There is considerable lg
superstition and downright stubborness to be
met and overcome The child itself can do little or
nothing Too often it an object of among its
playmates, and even in its own family so that 1t
shrnks from contact with others
1t is safe to say that majority of crippled chill
dren can be cured and restored to full health and vgor
if their taken IN hand early enough ana pro-
per attention given them.
The society and the state willing to do their
share but if the work to be the success that 1t shoud
be- the individual citizens must cooperate 1t should
be considered not duty but privilege to seek out
crippled child and have it brought before the clinic
here next Monday for examination. Who would Will
ngly deprive little child of the right to enjoy It's
life to the utmost if he knew that he had the means
at hand to relieve its handicap?
Most of know at least one crippled child. Would
it not be good idea and act Of the highest human
ity to talk matters with the chids parents be-
tween and Monday and endeavor to make arrange
ments to have the child at the clinic?
Humanity knows no race, creed, color or class.
Whatever differences may have among ourselves as
adults do not let them apply to children II we are
the men and women we should be. .
Christmas time is drawing near, time d~eolcateo ~
in particular to children. What better Christmas
gift could make to child than chance to enter
life without physical handicap?

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
EMPTY STUMP

Uncle Wiggily, though not very
rich rabbit gentleman, owned, be
sides his bungalow, another stump
house not far from his own. It was
an empty stump, and no one lived
in il now that winter had come. In
summer Uncle Wiggily let a lot Of
ants and June bugs livc in the
empty woodland home for no rent
at all.
One day Nurse Jane Fuzzy
Wuzzy SAW Uncle Wiggily printing
a sign on a piece Of white birch
bark, which animal folk use in
stead of paper.
'.What sign is that asked the
muskrat lady housekccpcr.

a new neighbor and some one with

''That's nice, squeaked Nurse
Jane. How much rent are YOU 60

Two Flyers Will Attempt Ia
Break Sustained Flight
Mark; in Air 48 Hours

San Diego, Calf, Oct. 1.-(AP)-
After two days and nights in the
air, Edward Brock and Edward
Schlee, were forging ahead toward
new endurance flight record in the
Bellanca monoplane today.
The aviators, who last year, flew
from Detroit to Tokyo, had been
aloft 48 hours ut $40 o'clock this
morning and were still going strong
with the prospect that they would
be able to remain up until 1:15 a.
m. tomorrow to beat by one hour
the present record of 65 hours, Is
minutes held in Germany.
The monoplane was being flown
on q course between Coronado and
the Mexican border at 1880 q. m.
Before the start early Saturday the
airmen calculated that their gaso-
line supply of $50 gallons would
keep them going 80 hours.
Brock and Schlee toxic in their
gasoline gorged plane at 6:49 a.
m. Saturday in the effort to better
the record of IS hours, Is minutes,
established by the German airmen,
Johann Risticz and Wilhelm Zim-
norman, last June. To gain Of
fetal recognition the airmen must
remain aloft an hour longer than
the record.
Last night the flyers were chased
inland by q sea fog which forged
them down to 500 feet, where they
kept under the fog. Good flying
weather was forecast for today.
At the take-off the plane carried
$50 gallons of gasoline. 81 gallons
Of lubricating oil and plentiful food
supply. 1t was said to have been
the heaviest load ever lifted by a
single motored plane, the gross
weight being $3.50 pounds.
