The quality of these books is good. Very few people have taken the op- portunity to contribute old volumes in bad condition and when such books were given they were thrown away by the librarians who received them. Magazines were contributed in great abundance. Many of these were to old to be used, but even those that re- mained were enough to satisfy the officials. Enjoy Foreign Publications. The plan of sending magazines to the men in service by placing a one- cent stamp'upon them has been found very popular, and camps were flooded with this sort of mail. That the men use these books and periodicals is ev- ident from the librarians at various camps. At Camp Sherman, there is a large number of Syrians scattered among the regiments. One of these men happened to find a Syrian daily published in New York, among the camp's periodicals. He sat down, and read it from end to end. Soon the news spread, and now there is a dele- agtion of Syrians at the library every day, awaiting the coming of the paper of their language. Men Select Own Books MERCHANTS EXPECT GOOD EASTER TRADE That the Easter sales will com- pare favorably with those of other years, in spite of the war pressure, was the consensus of opinion forward- ed by a number of Ann Arbor business men yesterday. The relatively high prices and the tendency towards economy, both due strictly to the war, wil tend to re- duce the purchase of luxuries and fin- eries, one merchant stated, but never- theless, a good Eatser business will be enjoyed. Grocers and meat market proprietors will average nearly the same as last year, but due to the fol- lowing of the policy of food conserva- tion and household economies, a slight falling off will be the result. To purchase carefully and shrewdly seems to be the general practice since the war but nevertheless the public demand still exists and sales'in gen- eral will run close to the average of other years.

The system used by a camp li- brary is probably equivalent to the . system used in a city 200,000. In some camps, there are as many as 250 distributing stations. Besides the central building there are branches in the Y. M. C. A., Knights of Colum- bus, and hospital branches. These stations are hardly more than boxes containing 50 or more vol- umes. The boxes travel from one station to another, so that every branch may have all the books on hand at some time. Book boxes are designed so that the "honor system" may bae used to avoid unnecessary records of exchange of individual vol- umes. The boxes are placed in com- pany mess halls or barracks so that the men can get the books at any hour of the day.

GIRL TAKES OUT WARRANT FOR ARREST OF ASSAILANT One of the girls who was assaulted on Washtenaw avenue last week ap- paered in Judge Doty's court yester- day morning and signed a warrant for the arrest of David Anderson on a charge of assault and battery. An- derson pleaded not guilty and will ap- pear for examination Monday morn- ing. The girls say they are certain that Anderson is the man who made the attacks on them and are prepared to identify him in the examination. If sufficient evidence is advanced at the examination the defendant will appear in the circuit court on the charge of assault and battery. He is being held on $100 bonds. U. of M. Jewelry. J.. . Chapman's Sis the place. 113 S. Maln.-Adv. Approximately 150 letters were sent out by the Civic association yester- day to- persons possessing lots not being used, requesting permission to use them by local people for garden purposes. At some later date, there is to be an extensive campaign for workers. Last year more people vol- unteered their serviices than there was land to be used, and the food raised in this manner lasted far in the winter. In order that the war gardens to be planted in this city .be successful, the members of the botanical depart- ment of the University have offered to test seeds to be planted. All seeds brought to the New Science building will be given a thlrrough test free of charge. The seeds should be in good containers, marked with the owner's name, and taken between 4 and 5 o'clock on any afternoon except Sat- urday and Sunday, to the greenhouse of the Natural Science building.- One week after leaving the seeds, the own- ers may call for them and receive report. Suss Wood Attends Conference I Miss Marion Wood, instructor in physical educa'tion at Barbour gym- nasium, attended a conference in Lansing yesterday, the purpose of which was to organize University wo- men to do farm work. Last summer groups of girls from Vassar, Welles- ley, and Mt. Holyoke pledged two weeks of their vacation for farm work, each group electing to work, a differ- ent period: The work consisted of everything except plowing.
