It disclosed that they were reading chiefly sensational newspapers, lurid manazines Mid very few books. The directors of the school promptly established class room libraries at the school with hooks sup plied hy the public library.'' Pupils who wished to read for credit were given an opportunity to do so. Others were en couraged to browse for their own enjoyment. Tin? experi ment was watched duriiiK a live-month period. The class loom libraries were used with incieasine; interest. Teachers lffWrtwl seeiiiLf ' fewer of the koils.Uioii'al liewsll-ipers iltuT inaeazines. There was hearteniiiK proof of the theory that little wise direction is often all that is needed to help An unusual lawsuit has been brought by a single woman of middle ajjc in New York, against her brother. She sup ported him and took can; of him from tin.' ajre of 10 until he was able to cam his own living. After he ni'ew up, she kept house for him many years, when she mie,ht have mar ried and made a home of her own. lie prospered, and prom ised to share his prosperity with her. Finally he married, and neclecled her. Now she insists that he make nood his promises and j-ivo her a just recompense for her sacrifice. This little story will touch sensitive heartstiinns in many thousand homes. How many women are there in this kind who have made similar sacrifices, often without hope of re ward but merely from a sense of duty, for some relative or other? How many men, too? Put the men are fewer. Wom en have a Kieater propensity for some such service. Per sonal family burdens fall mainly on them. And too often they do not jjet their reward this side of heaven. OltPllANAd'K UNCORDS When Will Uojiers went abroad a few years ao he cre ated many lauchs by tolling what difficulties he had in eon vinciliR the United States novernnient that ho had ever been liorn. A similar case, with more serious implications, has re cently come to lijrhl in the Fast. A prominent architect of P.oston, II years old, was adopt ed as a child from an orphanage. When ho was lil years old the adoption was made legal. During the World War ho served 22 months in Fiance in the American army, and came homo again to these shores when the war was over. Now he wants to go abroad, but the stale department has refused him a passport because ho cannot furnish docu mentary evidence of his birth. The orphanage from which he was adopted, as i.s the custom in many such institutions, kept no record whatever of his origin. Ho has boon trying for half his lifetime to find any facts about his parentage, hiring skilled lawyers to help in the search, but in vain. There are two obvious wrongs here. In the first place, the state department ought to be i,, apply common sense in such a case and recognize the man as a citizen. The other wrong is the failure of orphanages to file in some place of public record all the information they have about their small charges. However adopting parents may feci about a child being happier in ignorance of (ho fact of his adoption, there is nearly always a time in adulthood when th,. indi vidual wants and needs to know all that the institution knew of his birth.
