New Rockefeller Library.

new library, the gift of John d. Rookie

branch of the institution so thoroughly,
albeit speedily, that there was no time
for more. But it was well worth while
to get this view of the library for 1t is
one of the most complete outfits of its
kind In the Eastern world, and was OF
especial interest because of the fact
that an Americans generosity has made
1t a possibility.
The destruction of this library in the
course of the cOnfiagration OF Septem-
Der, 1928, was q staggering loss to the
university, which occupies . very high
rank among japanese educational in
stitutions, being conducted by the gov
Eernment and maintaining exceptionally
strict naturalization requirements. AL
most every one of its zoe, 600 volumes
went up in flames. In December. 1924,
Mr.. Rockefeller gave 1000 900 yen, or
about $4,000, 600, without conditions OF
any kind, for the reconstruction of the
library. Work was started at once and
was completed only few months ago,
the building being dedicated ins De-
cember, 1928. Donations Of books have
been made by foreign governments and
by libraries in other countries, and al
though the stacks are far from full, the
replacement has been astonishing, in
view of the complete destruction.
The library building Is splendid
structure, substantial attractive and
we'll designed for effective administra-
ton and use. 1t has every modern
feature of library equipment and
arrangement. And, 1t is IN constant use
by the students, who flock to its read

effort by the government to promote the
f1uidity OF labor, as the British used to
say of their labor exchanges. Ninety

parts OF Japan Much of the explana-
ton Of the system was lost TO us be-

In Toxic the job hunters average Co.
900 month, and about 25 per cent of
them get work through the employment

workers and domestic servants. The
