Prospect Street Branch
Is Popular With Pupils

Back in 1896, when community
reading centers were scarce, the
Prospect street library. now the
third Oldest branch in the city, was
founded.
In its inauspicious frame building
at 1913 East Prospect street thou
sands of hungering minds have
feasted on "the thoughts of Milton"
and "the inspirations Of Shake,
speare."
Mrs. Mile K. Drane, librarian,
in the fourteen years she has been
connected with the branch, has
watched it's patronage grow from an
average of seventy-five books per
day, in 1917, to 1862 books, the pres
ent average.
High school boys and girls form
the larger part of the library's Glen
tele. For their benefit a special
high school section has been insti-
tuted.
II find that our patrons read more
adventure stories than any other
kind. Zane Gray'S books are espe-
cially popular with the younger set,
Mrs. Drane said.
Pupils from schools Nos. 81, 80, 20
10, %, and st. Patrick's parochial
school are served by the branch.
Total registration of borrowers is
SSH, with 3,014 adults and 2,447
juvenile readers.
"Our shelves are kept loaded with
mystery, adventure and western
Stories" Mrs. Drane explained, for
our older patrons like them as
much as the children"
Travel and biography are not
preferred by Prospect patrons, she
said.
At Christmas time each year the
library turns Santa Claus and

Young Inventors Device
Designed to End
Prison Breaks.
BOSTON, March ga figure

BOSTON, March ga figure
I'D in the striped garb of a con-
Wet climbed stealthily through
darkness to the top of a prison
wall. A pistol cracked. The figure
slumped. Electric gongs sounded.
Glaring beacons, a moment later,
lighted the scene.
Edwin H. Vedder Of East Pitts
burgh, Pa, inventor, had demon
started to a group of Boston
scientists an electric eye" de-
signed to discourage prisoners
from breaking jail.
The magic eye, which would
bring instant death to an escaping
convict, once the fugitive crossed
a deadline of light, cleaned from
the head of sort of robot guard.
"Of course" the young inventor
explained cheerfully, "in actual
use, the eye could unleash a ma
chine gun or battery of machine
guns, instead OF just a pistol.
There would be no such thing as
lodging the stream of lead"
The basic unit of the device Is
a vacuum tube which is sensitive
to the vibrations of light.
