More about Books for Students Available to Purchase

COL. Luxmoore Newcombe has been kind enough to comment on my remarks as to the policy, in at least one county library, of buying cheap books, leaving the supply of more expensive books to the Central Library for Students. When I began to contribute these notes at the invitation of my friend the Editor, I hardly thought any essay of mine would raise a question of high policy. But that has happened! On thinking over the matter it seems to me that the policy is of considerable domestic interest, and so I boldly proffer again my own local point of view and look for such support as I think I should get.
