Nationally Know Author Says That
Business Men of Town Indirectly
Benefited by Library

Struthers Burt, nationally known
author, has written Mrs. j. Clyde
Kelly the following letter of endorse
ment of the public library movement
recently started in the county:
New York, N. Y.
February Z, 1886
Dear Mrs. Kelly:
One of the very easiest things to
do is to heartily endorse the action
of the Woman's Club of West Jeffer-
son in its&plan to establish a Public
Library. WAT can be said against a
library, I don't9 know; what can be
said for it would constitute many
thousands of words. In the largest
book of quotations ever gotten to-
gether, Burton Stevenson's "Home
Book of Quotation" recently pub
hshed by Dodd, Mead & Company
there are almost two hundred quo
tations in praise of books on the part
of the wisest minds all through the
centuries, ranging all the way from
the Old Testament to the mos modern
thought.
Plimy the Elder said, "No book is
so bad but some profit may be CLEAN
ed from it'; Lord Chesterfield, "Take
up any book, even down to a jest
book, it is still better than nothing;
Douglas Jerrold, "a blessed compan-
ion is a book-a book that, fifty
chosen, is a lifelong friend a
book that, at touch, pours it's heart
into our own; and William Ellery
Charming, Books are the true level
lers. They give to all, who will faith
fully use them, the society, the spir-
itual presence, of the best and great
est of our race"
No, there is no question about a
library. A town, or a county, without
one is in backward state, and every
one in that town, or county, should
realize this and is every way help to
found a library. And perhaps in an
indirect, but permanent way, among
those most benefited are the business
men of a town, and yet often they are
the hardest to win over. Raising the
level of intelligent purchasing power
in everything from apples to hats
Don't let your business men off. Show
them why they should be interested
and then make them subscribe, gen
erously and annually.
With very best wishes for success
and regards to Mr.. Kelly,
faithfully yours,
STRUTHERS BURT.

SKULL OF MURDERED
CHILD SHOWN TO JURY
Alleged 65-Year-Old Kidnapper Is
Accused of Tendency to Eat
Human Flesh

Accused OF tendency to Eat
Human Flesh
A child's skull-allegedly that of
the slain Grace Budd-was dangled
last Wednesday before a shocked jury
in the courtroom at White Plains, N.
J. trying shrively Alder Howard Fish
for Staying the 10-year-old girl.
Unexpectedly, Ebert T. Gallagher,
assistant district attorney, picked up
a battered cardboard box and with
drew brown, weathered skull-mark-
ed by Supreme Court Justice Fred
erick Close as Exhibit 1872.
He handed it to the court stenog-
rapher. Jurors rose from their seats.
A pail was over the courtroom. The
little 65-year-old defendant took a
swift glance at the gruesome exhibit,
opening his eyes for the first time
since he took his seat that morning
expressionless, apparently unaffected,
he slumped in his chair, his head rest
ing on his right hand.
James E. Dempsey, Jr., has been
assigned by the court to act as de-
Tense counsel for Fish, who has con-
fessed Staying Grace and mutilating
her body on June 8, 1923 after Turing
her from her family to attend a
birthday party"
Holding the skull before the jury,
Gallagher asked Detective William
King who traced and arrested Fish
on clues from a letter he wrote the
child's mother, Mrs. Della Budd,
about month before Fish's arrest
on December ID, 1884, if the skull
was the one dug by the defendant
from mat of dead leaves at cot
tage in East Irvington, N. Y.
"That's the SKULL" said King, CLAN
cling toward the impressive defendant.
In pantomine King graphically por-
trayed Fish-described by the prose-
cution as sane though "sexually alb
normal" and by the defense as insane
almost triumphantly digging up
the bones the state contends are those
of Grace Budd. His search was con-
Quoted on the night of December 13
under the glare of police flashlights.
King said Fish denied he practiced
cannibalism, although a letter he
wrote to Mrs. Budd indicated he had
cannibalistic tendencies. The letter,
which led to his arrest, described his
mutilation of Grace's body and her
'decapitation.

James A. Farley, Democratic ma

the Republicans at the Springfield, Ill,
Grass Roots" rally really favored the
New Deal, but wanted to run it.
Their roofing in the grass did not
seem to turn up much more than q
denunciation Of the New Deal and

ICY identified with the New Deal" Fs--
/ ley said in a statement sent out by tina
National Committee.
THE same platform could have been
written with much more clarity and
brevity. 1t should read We are in
favor Of the New Deal. but we think
we ought to have the Job Of admins
tering it,"
Farley said he was somewhat
| shocked that so representative a gath

confusion and irreconcilable character
of its omposition-should have failed

Il do not know whether this was be-
cause they we're ashamed of him or
because they were afraid of promoting
