Tho women of tho college, although taken somewhat by surprise by thla high resolve, came right back at them by starting a movement for only ono spoonful of sugar at each meal. When first tried, thla plan worked like tho proverbial charm, but It aooa came ot th eara of tho fair co-eds that th gentlemen who resided In eer ie.! a fraternity houses were violating tho spirit of tho ordinance by changing the rule to read, "three spoonfuls a day." By this means they wera enabled to heap the sugar on their morning cereal and do without for tho rest of th day.

Many thanks from all Ar menian aoMlers of thla camp. Tha American people aave ever 1,000.000 books to the soldiers and sail ors In the recent book drive condncted by the American Library Association. Tha returns are now complete. In oreaalng totals are being reported from avery state. Tha campaign refuses to stop. The total figure far exeeeda all ex pectations of all librarians, and the high quality ot tha gift books la like wise a surprise. Apparently the read Ins; public has awakened to tha desir ability and need of supplying good reading matter to our men In training. An Indefatigable statistician figures that the total collections will furnish over 00. 000.00a page of printed mat- ter, 17.000,000 lines of type, and 270, 000.000,000 words for th men In tha camp, naval station and hospital li braries. (No estimate upon tba total number of bright Ideaa and restful hours to he gained.) These gift books comprise a library one-third larger than the Library ot Congress and more than twice tha size of the New York Public Library. ,11 plaerd end to end they would make, a continuous lino oi-goou literature irom London across the channel through Paris to the front-line trenches; or. If plied together In a single column, they would reach a height of 2t times that of the Washington Monument. But columns and monument of books cannot long withstand Army and Navy usage. Books soon wear out In camp or on deck. The American public still haa an opportunity to "help make bet ter soldiers out of tha men and make better men out of tha soldiers" by giving rood books. Afternoon readlnrs from old favorites are held every Thursday afternoon from 3 to 4 o'clock in Room O, of the Central Library. On May IS Mrs. Gas- kelrs "Cranford" will be read. Public Library Notes.

PLANNING the Finley Institution we had a definite thought in mind. An institution that would offer to those in bereavement the same refined and restful atmosphA-e that we would expect in our own home. Although this beautiful residential Funeral Institution is so distinctly a Finley idea, it is for all, regardless of their means. No one else can or does offer more for any stated price. J. P.

When you analyze your shoe problem carefully you are bound to consider chiefly what kind of soles you need. You need long-wearing soles to cut down mounting shoe bills. You need waterproof soles to protect against dampness when rubbers are left off. You need soles that resist slipping and so make walking safer. You need flexible soles to be easy on the feet and do away with the old torture of breaking-in. You need soles that havecthese good qualities. There are such soles Neolin Soles, developed by scientists to have all the qualities soles should have. You and your family need Neolin Soles and are entided to them. Get them on the shoes you buy this Spring. And have the shoes you have worn re-soled with them. Learn the economy, comfort and safety of these soles. Give yourself and your family the treat of wearing them. They cost no more than other soles, to start . with, and they save much by their long service. They are found on new shoes for men, women and children in 'most good shoe stores, and are ised for re-soling in most good repair shops. When you ask for Neolin Soles look for the Neolin trade mark underneath. Dealers and repairmen in the lists below will point out this mark to you as identifying the genuine. , Mark that mark; stamp it on your memory : fleolin the trade symbol for a neoer changing qualify product of The Goody ear Tire fie Rubber Company, Akron.
