SII1TE LIBRARIES
THREE METHODS OF SE
CURING PUBLIC AID.
Miss Caroline Marvin, Secretary of the
Slate Library Comniidon, Outlines
the Plans of the State Small Vil
lages and Country Districts May Se
cure Free Libraries on Easy Terms
by Conferring; With State Commis
sion. To introduce the subject of public
libraries, and to explain the method
of securing free traveling libraries. Is
the mission of Miss Caroline Marvin
to eastern Oregon this week.
Miss Marvin spent yesterday In Mil
ton and is here again today discuss
ing library plans. As secretary of the
state library association she Is very
anxious for the rural communities and
small villages to understand the meth
ods by which they may secure state
aid In starting a free library.
There are three methods bv which
state aid Is furnished In the creation
and accumulation of a library: The
first method applicable to small vil
lages and towns of as much as 3000
population, is for the town or commu
nity to raise $50 to start on, to be
applied to the expense of purchasing
a free traveling library. The state
will then furnish that village or town
10 free libraries, or two each year,
for a period of five years, the town
to maintain the library and keep It In
suitable quarters where It will be ac
cessible to the public.
Every town taking a library on this
condition secures one of the 10 li
braries which It uses In five years,
and has Its name and stamp placed
In the books of this Individual libra
ry. The library is renewed each six
months, giving each town taking a
state library, a complete change of
books each half year.
The second method of securing
state aid, Is where a country com
munity or very small village, which Is
not able to raise $50 for a start for
a public library, will apply to the
state library commission, a library will j
be established there, If the an tire li
brary fund is not all consumed at the
time of the application, this village or
Community to maintain the library
and keep It open to the public In n
suitable location. The same traveling
library, changed each six months, will
be supplied to such community free.
The third method of securing state
aid is for a village or town to appoint
a local library board, under a recent
law, and raise by special taxes, not less
than $100 annually for the mainte
nance of a library. The state will
give such community the use of one of
the free libraries until such time as
Modern
Pharmacy
Is practiced by us In every way.
There have been great Improve
ments in the last few years In
the making of medicines.
The preparations you take to
day are more elegant in looks,
more palatable and, while mild
er In action, are Just as effect

trums. We have kept step with
the times and the medicines you
purchase of ns will be found of
superior quality, as they are
scientifically prepared.

THIS BANK, through Its Savings Department, haa been the
means of persuading a great many people to put asld money.
All have been glad that they have done so. None have been
sorry. When you have opened a Savings Account It la easier than you
think to add to It
Take our advice and open such an account, you will very soon
have reason to thank us.
We pay FOUR PER CENT on savings.

there may be sufficient books In the
home library to be Independent of the
state.
The state commission Is very desir
ous of reaching the rural communi
ties which may be in condition to
assist In establishing a library. The
state funds are Intended more for
country districts and small villages
than for larger cities and the work of
the commission wilt be principally
confined to rural communities until
all such are amply provided.
Under one of the three rules laid
down by which state aid may be se
cured It Is possible for nearly every
small village In the state to possess a
traveling library within a short time,
and with this end In view Miss Mar
vin will visit all districts and settle
ments where there Is the slightest
possibility of starting such a library.
ARMY OF BOOK AGENTS.
Walla Wullu Besieged by Two Rival
ComiHUiles.
"Eighteen book agents. Well, guess
that Is a few, for a town like Walla
Walla," said a well known citizen yes
terday afternoon, say, the Walla
Walla Union. "Two rival companies
are thoroughly and systematically
working the town, and the amount of
money they are taking away with
them is not small," continued the gen
tleman. "The rival agents are selling refer
ence books published by two rival
publishing houses. Out company has
18 men and women In the city nnd
the other hus three, t don't object
to their selling their books If a per
son really wants them, out I under
stand that they are resorting to all
sorts of ruses to make the people be
lieve their children need them, In or
der to loosen up the pnrse strings of
the parents.
"Just now. as school is ready to
open, and there Is a change In the
text books, the wily agent attempts
to leave the Impression that their
books are a necessity to the children
In order that they may ne properly
equipped for the school room Monday
morning. They have a great lot of
endorsements from teacners and prin
cipals as to the merits of the books
and are showing these to the unso
phisticated. "I understand they twtst the mean
ing of the words in Buch a manner a
to make the person believe that the
books are required in the city schools.
I don't believe that some of our local
teachers would have given the letters
these agents presume to have If they
had known the way they would be
used."
Suspended Sentence.
A rather pathetic case occurred In
police court this morning when Bert
Richardson, a 19-year-old married
man. was brought before Judge Brown,
who Is acting as recorder during the
Illness of Recorder Fits Gerald. Rich
ardson Is as young looking as his age
would Indicate, and he Is also small
of build. When he pleaded guilty to
having been drunk last night, the
Judge sternly said, "A married man
of your age who gets drunk, should be
given 30 days In Jail," to which sen
timent, the youthful prisoner agreed.
"However." continued the impromptu
recorder, "In this case the court will
suspend sentence and you may go,
but do not show up here again." The
prisoner declared It was the last as
well as the first time, and left the
room with a grateful look.
APPEARING OLD

You cannot afford to grow old.
In these days of strenuous competition
It Is necessary to maintain, as long as
possible ones youthful appearance.
It Is Impossible to do this without re
taining a luxurious growth of hair.
The presence of Dandruff Indicates the
presence of a burrowing germ which
lives and thrives on the roots of the
hair until It causes total 'baldness.
Newbro'e Herplclde Is the only known

to Cnteli I'p With the Accumulated
Business Ten or Fifteen Cases Are
Tomllug in That Court From t'nui
tllla County Bankruptcy lYocccd
lug Are Stalled, and Many Cases
In Which Indians Are Involved.
As a result of the tie-up of nil fed
eral .court business in this district
considerable local Inconvenience is
being caused through cases that are
pending from this county.
When Judge Bollinger died, last
May, there were a number of suits In
volvlng land on the reservation petid
lug. us minor matters haa been neg
lectori for some time because of the
lamf fraud trials. Since then the
cases have accumulated until there
are now 10 or 15 cases up. Most of
these involve more than lao acres of
land, and they are largely disputes
between different heirs to lund on the
reservation.
Also, there are quite a number ot
criminal cases from the reservation
that cannot be disposed of until a
new federal Judge is appointed.
Among these are several cases where
Indians have been arrested for taking
liquor onto the reservation, and at
least one robbery case.
Also, all bankruptcy matters In the
state are now at a standstill through
the fact that there Is no judge before
whom the proceedings may be
brought. It Is said that there are al
most innumerable cases of this nature
waiting for a chance to be heard.
Among them is the case against the
Pendleton Woolen mill which, It is
said, would be brought were there a
judge on the bench.
When a new Judge Is finally ap
pointed by the president, it Is said tlwt
It will take him at least a year to
catch up on the back work that has
accumulated during the time there
has been no man permanently v upon
the bench.
GREAT ADVERTISING MEDIUM.
II. II. Hallock DeelureM TIiIh or the
Umls unri Clark Fair.
Homer H. Hallock, traveling repre
sentative of the Lewis and Clark fair,
Is again In town, having arrived this
morning from the cast. Mr. Hallock
has Just returned from a trip through
Colorado In the Interests of the fair.
Speaking of the feeling which he
found there towards Oregon, he said:
"A great many people were In Colo
rado for short stays while on their
way home from seeing the fair. From
talking with these I noticed that al
most every person spoke with the
greatest admiration of the fair, and
of Oregon In general. Also, I hea'd
many say that they were coming hack
In the future, mi'.ny with the Idea of
locating. As a result, I am confident
that Oregon is going to reap a great
amount of good from the advertising
which it has been given during the ex
position, and that many people will
move to the state within the next
few years, through the favorable im
pressions which thpy formed vhllc
here this summer."
According to Mr, Hallock, all of
the trans-continental lines are prepar
ing for a heavy business this fall, and
he believes that the travel Is going to
continue even after the fair I all
over.
The object of Mr. Hallock's present
visit here Is to arouse Interest in the
excursion of September 25, and th
others which will be run between
now and the close of the fair.
