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. Robt. Bowen, c. 8.0. Engineer Hary Bradford who once pulled the throttle over the Alabama .Vidland Ry has been here this week and will probably move bin fam ly to this point.
