The most important happening on
the professional horizon at present
is the American Library Associa-
ton convention at San Francisco
this month More than 5000 IL
brarians from all over the United
States and Canada are expected to
attend the six-day meeting. The
program includes national and in
ternational speakers of note, beside
section meetings for the different
types of libraries and work.
Naturally, the section | am most
interested in is the County and Re-
gional Libraries Section. It is the
plan to make it an exchange bureau
for ideas, besides discussions on
methods, new developments in
county library service, and movie
of county library book service to
rural schools in California An ex-
hibit of county library publicity is
one of the features also. In fact,
the county library development has
been very rapid and many ideas
and information can be obtained
from such forums.

ASBESTOS PANTS

The Jefferson (Ohiol Gazette
can imagine nothing more foolish
than to advertise red wooden shirts
in hell, but asbestos pants would
sell like hot cakes
Some storekeepers are -se-far be-
hind in their advertising technique
they should be selling bustles in
stead Of foundations and hoopskirts
instead Of step-ins.
Many fossil is drying up at his
old stand because he doesn't know
that nothing is as constant as
change. The old storekeeper served
a purpose, but if one aspires to be-
come a merchant he has to stock
what people want and then push
his turn-overs with the aid of good
advertising copy.

A suggestion of William F. Simp- son that the police superintendents attend all board meetings in the fu- ture, was not acted upon at a meet ing of the police commission yester- day afternoon.
 Commissioner Maurice Sweeney pointed out that both Supt. Roach and Deputy Supt. Carson have at tended all meetings where the na- ture of the business warrants their attendance.
 In making the suggestion. Chair man Simpson used the analogy that the police board is like the board of directors of business concern, with the Supt of police in the role of general manager. He said general manager is a valuable presence at meeting of board of directors, be- cause he is acquainted with all the departments, and may make impor- tant suggestions, as well as being called upon to give his opinion on a proposed measure.
 MT. Simpson is one of the recent appointees of Mayor Patrick M. Per- riello, and was elected chairman of the board two weeks ago. The board approved a letter from Supt. Roach, announcing that ht will hold an inspection of the uni formed members of the force in the near future and would like the com missioners to attend.
 New committees of the board were appointed by Mayor Patrick M. Perriello as follows: Men ane discipline, Comsr. Simpson, Maur. ice Sweeney, Edward Downs ant Wendell Cross; rules and regula.
