LABORATORY OF INFORMATION.
Librarian Urges Citizens to Make I'se
of Camden Library.
The Library Association held its-reg
ular monthly meeting on the stand in
front of Library Monday afternoon.
This Association Jm composed of per
sons who pay ah annual fob of $1.
which goes towards a book fund, and
from this Association the committees
that govern the Library, are formed.
But they have no special privileges,
and are not allowed to Infringe, on
Library rules any "more than the free
readers. Yon <Jo not have to join the
Association to l?e a reader?that Is, a
matter of choice, hut we would like to
have one representative from each
family. Be public-spirited enough to
.give $1 annually to onr educational
institution. We do not want you to
think of the Library, merely as.a place
to get the latest fiction. Do not think
that it is a place for women and chil
dren to get novels. It is the aim of
the management of this little Library
to convince the business world, that
It Is a laboratory indispensable to citi
zens who wish to keep in touch with
up-to-date methods. Every citizen who
pays taxes or a grocers bill is helping
to support the public Library, and has
the right to ask returiui from his in
vestment. The Library is a public in
stitution belonging to the people, and
the people have a right to get their
money's worth from it. T^he Library
is growing and Is destined to be a great
factor as an educational institution in
Camden. Come and learn to use It in
telligently. I>et the Librarian show
you how to And a book by subject,
author mr title In less time than it
takes to tell it. We have many, books
that are right "up to the minute" on
the problem and questions of the day,
such as: "The Origin of the War,"
-by-Rose; "The Diary of a French
Army Chaplain," by Klein: 'The War
and Democracy," by Set on-Watson;
"The Kaiser's War," by Harrison ; and
quite a number of others.
?-Thanks are due to Miss Perkins, of
Concord, Mass., for these l>ookS. She
has been a generous and constant
friend to the Camden people.
Come to the Library. It is a place

fine Valenciennes lace insertion and

in the relchstag, are any thing hut
empty expressions.
The prol?nbl? attitude of tho chan
cellor already hun run the gamut of
diverse speculation, hut as yot noth
ing has hoen evolved from the many
uitoillcial discussions of the man and
Ids ideas and intentions on which any
tiling like certainty 'can bo based.
Some writers express the belief thai
the new chancellor's leanings will he
toward the peace views of the major

advneed oplplon that hla isdlcy will
be that of the militaristic party, and
there are others who consider his as

stop-gap program preliminary to the
i formation of something In the nu

I After having tried ineffectually to
I .overcome tho French K;ilns in tho
Verdun sector liojweeu the eastern
edgeofthe Avocourt wood and Hill
MtH, the German* have ceased their
cOstly enterprise and are now con
tenting themselves with throwing
shells Into the positions which (.Jon

evacuate. Likewise, along the
t'heinln-des-Dailies the violent Infan
try activity of tho early week has

taking place.

harassing patrol- raids on numerous
sectors of the front. One of the most
successful of the enterprises was car
led tmt east, of Mouohy-le-Prciix in
the Arras sector, in which the Brit
ish gained ground and took. prison
ers.
On the Russian front General
Korniloo's army in East (Jalieia is
stubbornly holding back the reinforced
Austro-German armies, which at va
rious points arc endeavoring to wrest
from them the positions recently won
hi ..the Haliee nmt Kalusz sectors.
In the latter region, near the village
of Noviea, the enemy won a vantage
point from the RussIinih but ?? Im
mediately afterwards, in a counter-at
tack, lost it again. The Germans arc
violently bombarding the Russians
south of Brezany and near Halle*.
Late reports from Petrograd are to
the effect that the disorders have
been quelled. In Tuesday's fighting In
the streets of Petrograd, six persons
were killed and 288 wounded.
