AN APIMCVL TO THE CHILDREN.
The great need in the education of
our children in the country, at. the pres
ent time, is more reading matter. Very
few childreu in the rural section* have
anything else to read hut their text
hooks. What is needed is a lot of mis
cellaneous reading matter to interest
the ohild and broaden his mind, and
cultivate his intellect. We have tried
to get the patrons of eitoh school to .
furnish their children with extra reading
matter, but they have failed to realize
it* importance, and have not taken
much interest in it. We have decided
to try another method. If we can get
t.OOO hooks, we can divide them into 4(1
lots of 25 books each and let each school
have one lot. until they have exhausted
ir And then give them another oue, aud
so one until everv school tins had the
benefit, of the 1.000 books. We oan get
1,000 books for $150.00, We would like
for every one wh.> feels an interest it the
education of our children to help us. If
every teacher will take up a collection in
the school he is teaching and every in
dividual give us according to their means
we will get the amount without any dif
Acuity. Remember tills and send us as
large a contribution as you can, and let
ns have these libraries for 1902.
