money contribution is concerned, nt
material that mentions the Unitec
War Work Drive or the funds to b<
raised in November will be releasee
from this office until the Libertj
Loan subscription period has expired
In the meantime our only way t(
prepare South Carolina's loyal peo
pie for the United War Work Cam
. paign is to keep them informed oj

j seven welfare organizations. Sue!
stories as the one inclosed will serv(
the purpose admirably, we believe
! You will note the story says nothing
about money, but has an educational
j value and will be remembered latei
on by those who read it now.
I ask your heartiest co-operation
and feel sure that I will get it, ir
j the matter of publishing this anc
similar stories, which I shall senc

the American Library Associatior
and he is more than liable to looi
at you with inquiry written all over
his face. But nevertheless his lacl<
of knowledge of this organization
does not altar the fact that it is doing
and has been doing some of the
most effective work in maintaining
the morale of the fighting men in
France and providing means of
wholesome mental recreation for the
boys who are jaded and worn after
long periods in the trenches.
The province of the American Library
Association is extensive to the
utmost degree. It covers all fields
of military activity with its operations
and extends its influence to all
battle fronts.
It places libraries on warships,
transports and cargo vessels in the
service of the Government. It maintains
library service for militarj

nospicais.
The Library War Service seeks tc
place in the hands of every membei
of our fightii^j forces the book he
needs when he wants it, whether he
wsihes to read for recreation or tc
fit himself to be a better fighter, a
better American, or to help him win
success aiter tne war.
The American Library Association
has built, equipped and now operates
forty-three libraries of 30,000 volumes
at large camps, 300 at smaller
camps or posts, 148 at naval and ma
rine stations and has 350 libraries
and branches at sea.
It supplies books and magazines
for the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A.,
Knights of Columbus, Y. W. C. A.,

Community Service and the Salvation
Army. More than 1,500 branch
libraries have been established in
