~~E~TA B LISHED 1805. N,,FlOWBE14N9.Y S. C., FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1899. TIEAWE,~.OAYA TRAVELING LIIRARIE8. Itate-resting Artilelo Fron President of Wo 11uKII'd Olubs. Having received a great many in. quirios as regards a modo of library work known as tho Traveling library, which is being systomatized by the Foderation of Woman's clubs, I ask that you will givo spaco to the fol lowing, in order that the propaganda of this work may I fully understood atid appreciated by the peoplo of our Stato: A great awakning is being felt t-hroughoi the length and breadth of this broad land to the importanco of a more general diffiusion of kiowl edge to the ima1sses, and out of this awakonig has grown this work, 'which is n,issioiary in the broadest sonme, as its raison-da-eto is the plaIlc ing good literatir in the realh of small towns, rural schools and vil lagos, the carrying of good books into isolated ('omnitiOH whero li brary priviloges and benefits are un known. Tihe Traveling library is not a ro cent experiment but as evidenced by other States is mntirely a practical and successful project. fi the Stato of Wisconsin we finl(d a record of eight years successful operation. A. work that is supported by State aid, anid is coitrolled by a library commission consisting of a board of fivo porsos, viz: The prvs ideIt of t ho St ate . uiniversity, the Stato superintendent of schools, the secretary of the State Historical soci Oty with two others appointod by the governor. A Stato appropriation suippOrts and carries out this plan of the Free TraveOing lbrary. Ollio follows closo in the lead of Wisconsin mind other Stmes north, east, south 1111d west are catching the inspiration. Our sister State, Geor gia, with her tismil onterpriso is abreast of the timns. The Georgia Woman's clubs have beon sendiing out libraries as individ nal clubs for two years. Th most. important traveling library work, however, in the south, and which is ilnique inl its inception is that of the Seaboard Air Lino railroaul, under the superintendenco of Mrs. Etugeno Hoard of Middletown, Ga., and which by her eariest eforts has been sys temized. Mrs. Heard is an ardent member of the Georgia federation, and is also chairman of the library connmitteo of the gonoral federation. The terri tory over which she has control (the Sa'abcoard rail road) i-xte'nds from Nor folk, Vai., to Atlanta, Ga. This line of road, through its vice-president, Mir. 10. St. John, has cent ributed books used on the line and cascs, ranasport s the aents and1( book cahes free of charge, and otherwise assists in the successful carrying out of this project. Mrs. H eard's territory em - braces 25 South Carolina townis or stat.ions on the samd railroad. These towns will be reached by the Travol ing library of the South Carolina led oration, thbrongh Mrs. Heard and her agents. It is projected to make Clinton, Chester, Chorawv and Abbe yillo di t ributoimg p,oints for the a(dja cent territory oni this line of roadl. Amnd now a word as to the method of this work. A cer-tain number of hooks i re dlenmiiinatedl a library say 5i0 or inmto-52 is the number adopted by time Seaboard rail roadl. These books are labeled and num. biered and placed in a case mado eiallmity for the purposo5 with stout dooers, locks and handles readly for transportation at a moment's notice. A locali organization imutst b)0 formed in towns and villagos or communities desiring the use of the library-a li b)rarian appointed who will be re sponsible for the safe return of the books. Th le books are then sent out for the free use of the public in thme villages aipplyinig for the lib)rary. The books will be returned a ter tho expiration of the t.iimo allotted, which is about 30 days. The library is lhen returneod to headquartersori for walrded to other towns desiring them who have complied with the require. nionte. Thus it may be seen that it matters not how small a village may be, by a li-tie effort. onl t heir part tho opportunity is offered them of secur jng uoed reaiding by simply apnlving for the books. Now as regards' t he work in South Carolina: A recent visit to tho majority of tho woien', clubs in the State shows that a wido spread interest is being taken in this special work. Soveral clubs in the Stiato-noticoable among Which is the Contury, of Charleston; Over tho T,.ea Cups, Spartanbiu rg. Once a Week, Soneca; Up to Date, Chester, have each donatedt a library, Which library will bear tho inamo of tho club aud each book inscribed with the anme of tho party donating tho same. A gentlema-. from the State of Now York genfrous'y donated a li brary after hearing of our purpose. This library will bear tho name of the donor. Through tho indistrial'agent, Mr. C. .1. Chase, tho co-op.ration of tio Southern has been secured for tho furtheranco of tho work. Books ire tho next i.roblem with tho territory oponed up by the co. operation of this road. Oine hun dred libraries of >0 hooks ech wili be required to givo whAt is necesary to carry out our purpose. We ap peal to th reading public of South Carolina, especially cllub won, for aid. Tim gift of one book will not be felt by anyolne, but th le umltipli cation of umiany books will leave its ill press u)ol I ho futuro of our Stato. Respect fu1lly, MES. M. W.
